Deteorating status of women in traditional Haryanvi society


Haryana was born on this day 43 years ago.I am also of the same age by chance. It is believed then that new formation will bring forth new dimensions in socio-economic, political milieu of this new state.Some significant changes have been noticed in economic field but the most important arena of societal development could not advanced further.Today Haryana's society particularly rural society is facing great contradictions. It shows a tribal character in societal decision making in the age of technological advancement. Social norms are twisted in such a manner that few most backward people by thoughts in a particular area govern the people by issuing talibani dictate. Rural areas have become inferno for youths particularly for those who have tender feelings of love and affection. Young boys and girls are butchered for no fault. Shamefully no reaction is made by any political and intellectual organisation. It seems society has become insensitive and its people dumb. It appears that we all are statues arranged in a rock garden. Will this heartless fearsome society is worth for its survival?
