Noida Killings

21st century ….. We call ourselves civilized …… but still we have incidents like godhara and the latest Nodia killings. For all of you who are unaware of this issue let me brief you about it. On 30th of December in Nithari village of Noida skeletons 15 of children were discovered. The parents of these kids did file a report when the kids went missing but kidnapping was not major news in U.P. hence no action was taken by them. It was when they found these skeletons did they understood the gravity of this situation. They got hold of a person called Surender who confessed sexually assaulting and killing of 12 children. The main accused and his employer Mahendra have been brought to court and are being charged with murder, concealment and destruction of evidence and entering into a criminal conspiracy. After this can we call ourselves civilized society. This act was nothing less that total barbarism. They accused might be given a death sentence but will it a lesson for us will this put an end to such atrocities. NO plain simple NO. We all have an animal inside us some of us are able to tame it the other like Surender and Mahendra let it loose wild. If this is true then why do we claim to be a civilized society why don’t we except this that we are anything but civilized. Also when Naresh Gupta, the Adobe CEO whose son Anant was kidnapped, it was the head lines of all the daily newspaper. And the missing of all these 15 kids went unnoticed. It clearly stated that there is a price tag attached to each one of our lives. 10 children go missing and no one knows about it but if yuvraj singh has a fight at his birthday party then it’s a headline. So in a way some of us who think ourselves to be civilized are provoking these crimes. If accidentally if the police might not have discovered the skeletons then we might still be unaware of it and Surender would be continuing taking more innocent lives. Media who we solely trust on in providing us the complete information about the happening in this society is in turn ignoring them. On top of it all the chief minister of U.P. states that this Nodia incident is not a big deal. Sir God forbid but if a similar thing happens to your grand daughter will you still say it ain’t a big deal? I guess even a death sentence will be less for these @!#%$%#$% the punishment given to them should be an example to all so that no one dares to commit a crime like this. And please for god sake stop being hypocrite and stop calling us a civilized society.
