In context to the article published in all leading newspapers today about a law which has been put in place allowing a Shia man in Afghanistan to deny food to his wife if she refuses to have sex with him(legalizing rape in marriage) is another act of folly committed by the puppet government of Hamid Karzai .

Some of other disturbing clauses are the guardianship of a child to his father and grandfather with women playing absolutely no role as if she is a surrogate mother.

Third Clause is that a women has to ask her husbands before she can work

The law seems to be deeply prejudiced against women and incurs a great amount of pain and suffering on women, wives in particular. Muslim women are already subjugated by men all through there life be it by a father, husband, father in law, or even her own son.

It seems that these people do not view women as human beings. They treat them with contempt, hated and this objectification of the opposite sex is really worth condemning.

These men or monsters what ever we may call them use ladies to satisfy there insatiable appetites for torture .They view her as a piece of flesh without life , soul ,emotion or desires .Women to these men are just a means to achieve an end .

Voluntary act of wearing a burqa is justified but compelling them into this is another harsh punishment levied on them .These outrageous laws seem to be enacted only to hurt women .They need to be rectified to suit the women.

In this age of equality where every girl as the same capabilities as boy these laws look outdated and present a very dismal picture of the state of affairs in Kabul.

21 century women should have equal standing with men but these primitive laws only cripple them

The Hamid Karzai government seems to have become a puppet at the hands of the Shia Clerics who also has a strong following .The enactment of this law is just a political move to retain the vote bank an with it the President‘s seat .The government of the day must understand that it is history which will analyze there work or follies and that they must do everything in there power to eliminate the problems and hardships of a common Afghani .The government should be busy in de talibanising Afghanistan and not make these goons look like progressive war lords

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Here, Rama becomes a secular icon revered by Hindus and Muslims alike, showing how mythology unites diverse communities.
