Video On Rape Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Video On Rape



A woman raped is a woman still chaste;
She is not to be held as adulterous.
The rape survivor is a martyr of women
And not to be stigmatized for sex crime.

A rape survivor wants the rapist to hang;
She herself wants to hang him at all cost.
Investigation and justice takes time.
The victim suffers; the offender slips.

She is ostracized in all social functions.
She is not an invitee to marriages.
She is denied jobs or accommodation.
The society drives her against the wall.

Molestation is like an attempt to kill.
Rape is like an act of ruthless murder.
Justice must be speedy and heavy too.
The society must assuage the victims.

India cannot boast of its culture;
India cannot boast of its moral restraints.
Video cassettes on rape in action
Are sold as a hot cake in India.
