It was an innocuous query from my four years old daughter,she had just watched a news report with me on TV about an abandoned girl child in a Kashmir hospital.
" Why doesn't God come to help little girls?"
I did not know the answer to that ,"maybe because.....",and I struggled for more words.
but the question has been haunting me since and I can think of so many instances when neither we as a society nor our Gods come forward for our girls.

ReplyDeleteFrench authorities are yet to respond to a plea by Suja Jones, wife of the French Consulate official Pascal Mazurier accused of sexually abusing his daughter aged three-and-a-half, to meet French President Francois Hollande during his two-day visit to New Delhi.
ReplyDeleteIn her letter, Ms. Jones alleged that the French Consulate in Bangalore appeared to be supporting Mr. Mazurier. He was arrested in June 2012 and granted bail by the Karnataka High Court in October that year.
Ms. Jones told The Hindu that she was disappointed that the French government did not even respond to her plea.
