The very thought of having murdered their own daughter brutally will always remain with them even after they cease to survive.
How dare we call ourselves modern & educated, when we have such stigma & differentiations of castes and religion. I have heard people saying that even if we agree, what will the society say?
My answerto this is that we make the society and I really want to ask Niru's parents as to what help is this society of today for them?
It is our parents only who after a certain period of time make us realize that we ve grown up and are responsible & mature enough to make decisions that matches us, then why don't they support us in the most sensitive and major decision f our lives - choosing our life partner.
This act is indeed a shame for the society as a whole and more to a mother who carried this daughter in her womb for a tough period of 9 months and took no time or felt no pain in taking away the same life.
Their outrage on finding their unmarried daughter pregnant is understood, but dear parents dn't you think the other way out would have been better, happier and respectable.
On one hand we call ourselves educated and modern and on the other hand we get to hear or see such incidences which forces us to think whether we are HUMANE also or not?
I sincerely hope Nirupama's murder prove to be a lesson for all such parents.
