1. I Celebrate The Death Of This
Beast, Do You ?
By Amisha Bhardwaj
2. They happen to have the same name
• His neighbors grimace with disgust at his mere memory, a 19
year old girl describes him with the word ‘disgusting’; his
employer called him a heavy drinker, negligent and rash
driver.
• The country knows him as the ringleader of the group which
proved or rather certified that Delhi indeed is the crime
capital of India.
• Yes! You guessed it right; it is Ram Singh being talked about
here, the one who crossed all the ‘maryadaas‘ and happens to
be in complete contrast to the values attributed to his name,
Ram.
3. Not to me!!
• I don’t find any necessity to introduce Nirbhaya and what this
late beast with his four other companions did to her last
December, I guess that none of us has forgotten the incident.
• Now keeping ‘the incident’ in your head would you call his
suicide, let us take it to be one, wrong?
• Looking at the great judicial system India supports, it’s speed,
the fashion in which it functions, where the proven culprits
like them get a lawyer to fight in the court, twisting and
turning the facts and happen to ‘damage’ the case and call it
to be their professional duty to create ‘doubts’ in the court;
• I think it is better that he headed to hell all by himself,
surprising the nation and surprising people like me quite
pleasantly.
4. • Mange Ram Singh, his father, calls it a murder by saying that
he confessed about his mistake, why would he commit
suicide?
• He was prepared for any punishment the government would
have given him.
• The authorities in New Delhi’s Tihar Jail said that he hanged
himself and the post-mortem report confirms it.
• To me, the only sad part of his demise is that he escaped all
the humiliations and trials that he deserved but it is better
than the ache I would have felt to see him alive after the trials
and the punishment he would have got.
5. Humanity to the deserving?
• Not forgetting that India is a democracy, the impact his death
has on the political front cannot be ignored.
• The opposition party leaders are ready with their word
cannons slamming Congress, Shiela Dixit and the prison
authorities at Tihar Jail for their security lapse.
• Perhaps this case will once again surface the issues of
custodial security, custodial deaths and the ‘gangs’ within the
prisons, which function much like we see in movies.
• Now all the humanitarians are concerned about Ram Singh
now and are calling his suicide a murder of human rights, I
would like to ask since when human rights are being given to
filthy beasts like him?
6. One down, four more to go!!
• ‘You may find it funny but the way it all has happened it makes
me feel like Nirbhaya is back to hunt down her wrong doers like
Kareena did it in Talaash’, said one of my friends while we
were discussing the topic over coffee.
• Perhaps she (Nirbhaya) thinks that she has waited too long
for the justice now.
• So, in a nut shell, may it be suicide, a murder planned by the
police authorities or his inmates or may it be Nirbhaya
hunting them down, to me the justice has been done, to
know that he no more breathes the same air as I do makes
me feel that the air has got fresher.
• One down, four more to go and all I am waiting for is to see
how they will go!
