Can you believe Falak is no more with us. Btw, for many the question is who was 'Falak'?
This is more significant than the Budget 2012 that has no hope and light for mango people. Anyways, I am not interested in blogging about budget as the news of ‘Falak’ who struggled for 2 months finally left the brutal world of rulers of human flesh. ‘Falak’ means ‘sky’, something that is limitless but is a shelter for many of us. She was admitted to AIIMS on 18th January, 2012 and was struggling with her condition - severe head injuries, both her arms were broken, there were bite marks all over her body and her cheeks had been branded with hot iron. What was her fault?
She was innocent indeed she had no clue what is all that happens in this world of prostitution and child trafficking. But she paid a heavy price of being a baby that too a baby girl.
The news about ‘Falak’ switched from headlines to page 3 then to page 4 and then to a small section somewhere one cannot even see.
Falak left the world and with her a question is raised in India – where are we safe?
I am not putting any information in this post about what happened that brought a baby to a hospital on 18th January, 2012. I want my readers to read all the links to find out. The idea is to make you feel each line of all the links to experience what that baby has gone through. I am overwhelmed and somewhere ashamed that I belong to this society where even a baby is not spared. Then we wish ‘Happy Women’s Day’ to acknowledge women in India.

I am short of words to express how bad I am feeling.
