Border brutality

     A writer from the United States, not an expatriate, expressed his views in a letter to editor published on January the atrocious behavior and brutality shown by the BSF, the acronym for which should stand for 'Brutality Sans Frontier' currency notes, and not passport or visa, seem to be the acceptable instrument of all illegal travel across the border. The ghastly event, this time recorded on camera, is done on a regular basis. Our government calls India a 'friendly country'. which is possibly the biggest joke that one can imagine . One of its    minister has officially ignored it as a regular incident . One wonders how is still in office.
                           A symbol of courage      
      Sometimes we become easily frustrated with our life seeing monotonous, tedious struggle of everyday life. We tend to lose hope and some of us try to take refuge drug , alcohol and other anti-social activities. We become too at the negative sides of our life, visualise ourselves as victims and start blaming everyone other than ourselves. When someone as brave as Hawa Akhter, Jui comes out we realise how lucky, blessed and privileged we are. I was really shocked when I read in the newspaper that her husband chopped off her study . Now I am really awed to see her courage and determination to carry on with her study. I am sure that no one can deter her from being successful. In our society we see a dearth of determination and courage that she has displayed, to continue with life after facing so much pain. I am sure Jui's fight back will encourage and help many lost souls to stand up and carry on with their life with courage and hope.
