Indian Daughter Speaks - By Esha Tewari Pande

Image
From last few weeks, the movie ‘India's Daughter’ has been a point of discussion everywhere. The movie is about a rape that happened in Delhi in 2012. It quickly became a controversy where some people believe that the movie should be banned; the other ones believe that it shouldn’t.  Indian Government banned it and justified the ban by saying they are concerned by the remarks made in the film by one of the rapists, Mukesh Singh - who is on death row and of course other political legal /illegal issues associated with Flim which is still a controversy. People who are in favor of ban are saying that the movie reflects a wrong image of India and will impact India's tourism. Just like Indian government, they believe that a rapist’s point of view should not be publicized like this.  I watched many debates where people are discussing about what the rapist said in the movie and why this should be banned. So I have a few questions for Indian government and the people who ...

Retracing Nathuram Godses journey in a House of Gwalior.

Image
By the time Narayan Apte and Nathuram Godse returned to Delhi on January 27 for the second and final attempt on Mahatma Gandhi’s life, the equation between the two had changed. The man who had followed the lead of his more assertive partner had decided he would be the one to kill Gandhi. They take a train from Old Delhi Railway Station to Gwalior. They are in search of a weapon. The trail now leads to Vivekananda Colony, Phalka Bazaar, Gwalior. Here lives the son of the man who is believed to have arranged the 9 mm Beretta pistol, manufactured in Italy in 1934, with which Gandhi was shot dead. In 1935, Dattatreya Sadashiv Parchure started a branch of the Hindu Mahasabha in the princely state of Gwalior. He was also a leader of its militant offshoot, the Hindu Rashtra Dal, and, as a corollary, a fierce opponent of the Congress. - See more at: http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/retracing-godses-journey-in-gwalior-house-son-lives-with-a-locked-secret/9...
