‘Children are the supremely important asset of the nation. Their nurture solicitude are our responsibility’, says National Policy for Children, 1974. India has the largest child population in the world. The Constitution of India guarantees Fundamental Rights to all children in the country and empowers State to make special provisions for the children. The Directive Principles of State Policy specifically direct the State to secure the tender age of children from abuse and to ensure that the children are given opportunities and facilities to develop in a healthy manner in the conditions of freedom and dignity.

But the starvation deaths are still reported now and then. Health condition, quality of education, condition of roads and people's safety and security are still cause of concern. Converting wealth into well-being is not just a nice-to-have ideal. It is essential to harness the precious human resource for sustained progress in economic development, utilize resources for public wellbeing and instill a feeling of dignity and belongingness among the downtrodden to make a happy and healthy nation.

Panchayats have virtually reduced to construction agencies which they are enjoying as contractors. In a State like Haryana there are Caste Chaupals which must be discouraged for the want of inclusion and creating an evenly fair society adorable to all. It’s shameful that a Mirchpur still exists in one of the developed state and 17 years over the second millennia. Unfortunately, the nation is still divided on the basis of castes and the politics of vote bank keeps it alive.

Almost all the political parties have their student and youth wing which generally is seen as army of hooligans in the support of their leaders who protect them for their wrong doings. It is not without reason that political leaders are giving nonsense statements regarding rape and molestation. A sensitive police and responsive judiciary is another requirement that can prove deterrent to the criminals. The victims have to face almost another rape like situation in the police stations. Non registration of complaints and further harassing the victim by asking nonsense questions and relaxing procedures to make the case legally weak are some of the malpractices at the level of police. Police needs proper sensitisation training and up to date knowledge of law.

Justice Leila Seth’s words aptly express the present perception which is starting to spread rapidly among citizens: “These are not Hindu or Muslim or Christian or Parsi demands or laws – these are a cry for gender just laws; for giving women their human rights and their mandated constitutional rights. If we can’t give them all the rights in one go, let us progress little by little but let us not be stagnant. Let us move towards gender just laws and a uniform civil code.”

The word gender came into mainly academic use some 15 years after the reemergence of late-20th-century feminism, which has, unlike its earlier manifestations, made a significant dent in male-dominated (androcentric) scholarship (at least, I like to think so).
