During the first four phase of the covid19 related lockdown, Indian women filled more domestic violence complaints than recorded in a similar period in last 10 years.We are living in 21st century which is known as modern world. But it is not correct at all. Women are the most suffered and tolerable section not only in India but in the entire world.Stereotype for girls exacerbated than previous year,  Domestic violence and buckle has cranked up by 25% to 300%. Myriad calls on helpline numbers shower of reports in grievances centre. In west Africa 60% of deaths in 2014 Ebola virus were women
New Zealand which is the happiest nation in the world has 53% of domestic violence on women.
Barriers to care
1. Due to online classes through learning apps,more priority has provided to boys.
2. Putting many girls into sexual exploitation,early pregnancy and lot of killed.
3. Children are unable to report abuse and many more things which are responsible for the increasing numbers of domestic violence.
But by increasing it does not mean, we can not do anything, we can, by stringent check through police on regular basis. Urgent actions are required in health facilities during covid 19 pandemic, victims of abuse can also access health services. Financial support should be provided in order to escape domestic violence.

    This is so sad. Who are these weak men who prey on women but back away from their male counterparts. Any men who abuse women should automatically be assigned to the military. Let's see how well you will do there.

SOCIAL MEDIA

  "Connectivity is a human right"... With a gigantic user base and a ubiquitous existence, the social media has become an inseparable part of the fabric of the Indian society. It has transformed the way we communicate in the online world. Ultra-fast internet connectivity, cheap data plans and universal access to smartphones for our youth have impacted Indian society in a unique way. As we know everything has its pros and cons, social media also have. Like a double-edged sword, social media is a boon for the democracy and business, on the other hand fake news, privacy concerns and online frauds tell a different tale.

REALITY CHECK

As we all know the whole world is dealing with the pandemic..but in this dire strait our respected PM Mr.  N arendra Modi is dealing with this very well. No PM has had to face such a situation that has impacted every part of India and every aspect of life. If a family member is seriously ill we get shaken. Here, his 130 crore people are at risk. Some are saying lockdown should’ve been earlier. Some are saying Army should’ve been called. Some are saying intelligence failure while some say you appease. Everyone has retrospective opinions but NONE has to bear the responsibility of 130 cr people, Only he has to.. If the lockdown doesn’t succeed then he gets targeted. If it does, still he gets targeted because the economy is hit. If he didn’t call for a lockdown then he would’ve been hounded for lethargy even if it had kept the economy going. He is always at the receiving end. You call for a nation of 130 cr to stop work. For the poor to risk going without food. The rich cry their earni...

Profit not Profiteering

In the beginning of this pandemic, there were limited cases of patients, so the government institutions are enough to testing and those tested positive were sent to the government hospitals. But in the present timr the number of cases increasing day by day, the demand of hospitals is on hike that's why it is important to include private hospitals as well. For testing in private hospitals government already set a limit of rs.4500 but do not set a limit for the treatment and isolation facility to the covid-19 patients. That's why private hospitals charges arbitrarily i.e. Rs. 7lakh for 14 days quarantine facility, if intensive care unit (ICU) care is warranted thrn the rates would be much higher and can be change according to their preferences that is a huge amount and can not affordable by everyone. So the states decided to interference in it and set a cap on the tariff that is charged by the hospitals. Maharashtra was the first to fix a tariff, followed by Gujarat, and Tamilnad...
