Typical sensational news dished up by dailies like thanthi creating an impression of the whole society practising such hideous customs as a normal way of life!

sarna_blr, you are correct about my colossal ignorance!
:oops: I have already confessed in some other thread about my unawareness of rural life & customs because of my city background throughout my life. That does not mean my indifference to villagers or their way of life. I am eager to know about them, to help them, to uplift them in what ways I can. I am clueless about how to help them. I read about their miseries, esp, the poor returns they get for their agricultural produce. It is mentioned often in articles how the brokers are the ones who always make a huge profit whatever be the price escalation. The government must think of direct buying ensuring a prosperous life for the farmers. But sitting in the armchair or typing in the computer how can I hope to bring about the changes I desire? It is a sad helplessness! Literacy & clean governance alone can bring about welcome changes. Even today it pained me to read in Ananda Vikadan about girls of a village swimming across Tamarabarani to reach their school. Where are all the taxes we pay go to? A decent road in the villages is as important as the flyovers in metros. The people in villages are also as much human as city dwellers. Yes, there are many known & unknown ugly evils in our country for us to be ashamed of. Let us elect clean, sincere politicians to rule us! DO THEY EXIST?

atleast neengalaavudhu unmaya oththukkitteenga.... inga irukkura neraya pEru kandadhE kaatchchi (paper or internet news)...kondadhE kOlam'nu irukkaanga... :oops: ....

BTW ungalOda nalla ennangalukku enadhu siramthaazhndha :bow: .....

>>Typical sensational news <<

Agreed. However, people are also happy to brand the whole 'west' as horrible societies based on similar news items in, say, Detroit Free Press (or not even that - some 'english novels':-) )

In reality, a lot of tragedies and horrors don't get reported in the Indian media. They are amukkified because the culprits are powerful (like a relative of a politician of ruling party etc.) The reality is much worse:-(

தனக்கு ஓட்டு கிடைக்கணும்ங்கிறதுக்காக லட்சக்கணக்கானோருக்குக்குடிதண்ணி கிடைக்காமல் செய்யும் தலைவர்கள் உள்ள நம் நாட்டைப்பற்றிப்பெருமைப்பட தற்போது அதிகம் இல்லை:-(

:ty: So far I have been believing charity begins at home. It is still true. How we live is real religion is my policy. A poem I learnt as a kid says 'love of fellowmen is love of God' That got etched in my mind. But it is beyond my temperament & circumstances to become an 'anniyan' or 'Indian' of the big screen & redress society's evils even if I ardently desire to do so!!! What can we do as individuals to make life better for our suffering, ignorant, poor brethren?

app_engine, that is a 'wicked' dig at me!!! :lol:

Do not reproach my patriotic impulses! peRRa thaayum piRantha ponnaadum naRRava vaaninum nani siRanthanavE! than muthugu thanakku theriyaamal illai! But that does not hide the ugly facts of other parts of the world from our view! Since we already so many problems, so many evils to be redressed we need not invite more trouble by aping unhealthy trends from the west! Won't you agree?
