Are we really humane? What is
being human besides Salman Khan and T-shirts? Nothing…right? Well I believe we
all are living in a fool’s paradise, a bubble, a myth. After Salman Khan’s verdict, Janavi Gadkar,
the high profile corporate lawyer’s drunken act claiming lives, now it is dream
girl and Member of Parliament Hema Malini’s turn. Turn to show what power and
money can fetch and it is nothing besides Inhumanity.
True this time the “star” was not
at the steering of the killing machine, nevertheless the exhibition of
disrespect, apathy and ruthlessness to commoners is no less. I was stunned that
when the “MERCEDES” of a high profile person hits the meagre Alto of a common
family, the medical practitioners care only for the life of the powerful. They
can be inhuman to the extent of leaving a bleeding 2 year old to die without an
iota of repentance. Are we human I ask again? But this time I answer my question
myself. NO, humanity is extinct.
These are the people who depict
goodness onscreen and we like fools pay our hard earned money to gift them
undue and undeserved lavishness. I feel
cheated when I read that the baby who died in the Dausa road accident and her
family were left bleeding, while doctor
attended Madam Malini, who I suppose was in complete sense. Medical aid fetched
a lot later to the Alto boarders and that too of poorer quality. The reason why
an injured baby succumbs in her mother’s lap is a price they paid for not being
able to afford a Mercedes. No matter they are people who go to watch movies and
create stars. No matter they are the ones who vote to choose them as leaders. Stars
who shine but bestow no light, leaders who lead awesome lives but cannot lead
the injured to the hospital. The era of divine 's vengeance is gone by my friend, condolences
on Lost Humanity.

That's sad but true. People only care about the powerful ones and a common man is dejected under them. :(
ReplyDeleteMuch awakening post btw.
Yes very sad :-(
DeleteHema Malini could have and should have done a lot more. She just issued an empty statement about her sadness. To me this means nothing. Please read my take " Hema Malini Shaken but not Stirred".
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely correct and besides being a MP her social responsibility should be more than anybody else...even if we leave aside humanity...
ReplyDeleteIt is sad to see how selfish people are but I think that in the case of the Hema Malini accident the grieving parents have nothing to do but turn their anger over to the actress. There's nothing she could have done, the child was already dead. Her driver shouldn't have been speeding but we do have a tendency to demonise anyone famous or rich.
ReplyDeleteMay be the child was already dead....but is it not the responsibility of the medical personnel to attend all the injured in an accident? And that is the only point which I could not assimilate....medical attention was deserved and desired by Hema Malini and all the injured members including the child. It is nothing against the rich and powerful. If she was in sense her single instruction could have fetched them medical aid, that is the only grievance.Differentiated treatment is everywhere, but in a case like this I feel it is inhumane.
