Hypocratic tendencies in northern India


Northern Indian states particularly Western UP,Rajasthan,Punjab,outer sub urban of Delhi and Haryana are experiencing a typical social order.In these states social development legs behind in their economic progress.These areas are characterized by decay of social values.Opportunism is the hallmark of these areas.People here have accepted it as tool of sustenance.
Fairer sex is facing new challenges not only for its well being but also for its survival.Skewed sex ratio has posed new threats for the society as a whole.Youths are at loggerhead in finding a mate.One who could manage some money procure a mate from the market irrespective of consideration of caste, religion, area, language and social norms.Hardly any voice of dissent is heard.But when such a thing happens in the society here, all kind of forces are galvanised to oppose such marriages in the name of brotherhood,neighbourhood and prevalence of social norms.It has been noticed that hardly a fortnight passes without any such reporting. Gruesomely, couples are dictated to shiver their bond or face ostracize.A few of them have to sacrifice themselves on the altar of love,trust and self respect.Is this
a healthy sign of a living and vibrant society? Is the choice of mate not a fundamental right? Will the coming generation forgive us for fettering our Young's without any fault of theirs?
