The bystander world on the Taliban insurgency

 It is not only Afghanistan’s government that has surrendered to the insurgency of the Taliban but also the world and humanity have succumbed to the influence of these terrorists. What could be worse than the world being a quiet spectator of the devastation taking place in an entire nation in the twenty-first century? What are the Human Rights organizations doing when it’s time for them to show their presence? The lives of more than 38 million Afghani men and women are in dismay. Their trepidation is evident in the grisly pictures and videos from the Kabul Airport where people could be seen falling to death after they clung to the underbelly of a plane in a desperate attempt to leave their country.  The countries in the world are busy closing their embassies and safely evacuating people from Afghanistan. Some countries accepting Afghanis, as refugees in their county, is a welcome step. However, it is not about a few lakhs of refugees who could take shelter in different parts of the world now, but it is about an entire nation. We cannot leave Afghanistan to its fate. The oppression of people is in its infancy.  The Taliban has already made it clear that Afghanistan will no longer be a democracy and will be a complete Islamic state governed by Sharia law. Afghan women journalists are being barred from work. Everyone is required to follow Islamic law. The minorities can have little hope from these cruel terrorists to protect their rights. 


Despite all these, some countries like Pakistan and China have even recognized the Taliban as the government of Afghanistan. Should the nations of the world be observers of the injustice incorporating in Afghanistan? What is the United Nations doing? Do the world nations believe that these terrorists could be dealt with amicably? I do not know. The only prime concern now should be to settle the problem without worsening the situation. Humanity must not die. The countries in the world cannot look into their selfish interests and only think about their people. Nevertheless, if steps are not taken with immediate effect, these extremists will gain more and more power. We cannot let terrorism penetrate our humankind and make life difficult for everyone. It is not the victory of the Taliban over Afghanistan but the victory of terrorism over the entire world and the defeat of humanity in general.

    I feel at the same time, I would blame the Afghan govt inefficiency and moreover a negligence towards building a better nation, how can a govt be dependent for 20 long years on external forces to give them security. Why were they not able to build an army who could fight terrorist forces, inspite of support/training/aid by one of the world best army? 20 long years it a reasonable time to build a nation from sand and gravel.
    So I would say it's not only somebody's else responsibility to defend Afghanistan rather Afghans themselves. Now, coming to terrorism their, it will a heaven for terrorist but we have to wait and watch how it will unfold and they will be taught a lesson again if they start to threaten world with terror activities.

STIGMA AROUND HOMOSEXUALITY IN INDIA

I was dismayed when I saw a pamphlet in the local newspaper which claimed that a certain medicine could cure the disease of homosexuality. Similarly one can find numerous youtube videos of people giving tips to cure homosexuality. Homosexuality is not a disease and hence it is not something that can be cured or should be cured. There is a lot of stigma around sex and gender in Indian society. Anyone who does not fit into the so-called norms that society has created has to go through the torment of his own family, friends, and relatives. Homosexuality is the attraction of people of the same sex. A homosexual person, unlike a heterosexual person, does not feel attraction for the opposite gender. It is something that is characterized in a person since birth and is only realized by a person later when they mature. There are a lot of myths about homosexuality in India. Those myths are not even addressed in our society because it is taboo to talk about homosexuality. This has given rise to h...

What's a court like? My first visit to Session's court.

What is a court like? Is it anything like the courtroom like we have seen in our bollywood movies? Does the judge say "order order" every now and then? Not at all. Being a first generation lawyer and a person who luckily never got into any court cases, I had never visited a court. Now that I have chosen to be a lawyer, I was really interested to see the court proceedings. Luckily, I went to the Bombay Session and Civil court today as our college lectures got cancelled. There is one thing that many people donot know is that anyone can visit court and listen the hearings that are held( except for certain crimes where camera trials are held). One need to have a valid identity proof to enter the court.  Bombay session court is huge and old. The British architecture makes the court look magnificent. There are various court rooms in the premises and each court room is assigned a particular type of case. For example , all cases related to Narcotics are dealt in court room number 44....

I should have helped?

 It was a humid day in July in New Delhi, India. It was around 3 p.m. that it started raining which was a respite from the scorching sun of the afternoon. I wished to sit in the balcony of my PG and have some chai-biscuit but I had no time to appreciate the rain. I was running late. I had my coaching at 4 p.m. and I had not yet taken bath. It isn't like taking bath was necessary but I could not go with my messy hair with Riya recently passing smiles at me. I quickly took a bath, packed my bag, and checked my phone for the time. It was 3:15. Also I saw a text from my friend, Darshan, that he had already left for the coaching. It was our legal studies class and a new teacher was going to take up the topic of constitutional laws.     The little rain did no good to the weather. Although the sun had gone, the weather had become incorrigibly humid. I was quite late and so I had to walk briskly to the metro station. The long queue at the metro station was an add-on to my de...
