AN OPEN LETTER TO THE HOME MINISTER



AN OPEN LETTER TO THE HOME MINISTER

Don't Ban the film,ban the rapes if you can !

I am too agitated to address you amicably in this particular letter and I think I

reserve a right to do so.

This is the height of insanity to be shown by a person who represents the people of this country.

How could you grant permission to an interview of a dreadful rapist who is alive just because 

the incompetent and inappropriate laws you and your government do not want to amend?

What did you think a brutal rapist had to tell to the world except the absurd and obnoxious dirt 
in his sick mind?

I can’t find any fault in the film maker Leslee Udwin’s, choice to make a film on that ‘highly 

propagated’ incidence of rape. She was aware that she could have an easy access to the 

culprits in our country. Also, the convicts of a crime of that degree of brutality could be found 

relishing the comforts of jail for that long in our country only. She claims to be a rape victim 

herself and observes that the interviewing one of the convicts of that ‘scintillating’ rape case 

would help in knowing the psyche of the rapists and hence would help in solving the problem. 

Her smartness outdid you. Did she tell you that she would help you in absolving the serious 

issue of rape in India?

Why didn’t she interview her own rapist? Are women not raped in her own country? Haven’t 

there been more cruel cases of rapes in any other country?

Perhaps, she knew how millions of Indians are emotionally attached to that particular case and 

that would help her earning glory and popularity. And now when sentiments brewed after that 

beast’s rumbling became viral, you realized your mistake and did what our government is 

very good at-you have banned that documentary in India. 

Well done. ..Applause …I request all the readers to give it for the honourable Home Minister.

Dear Mr. Singh, we have not yet recovered from the pain and shock of that ominous Sunday of 

December 2012 brought to us. We live that pain again and again whenever we are reminded 

by the media that those beasts are still alive and living a comfortable lives in jail. Thanks to the 

benevolent law of our land that gives every opportunity to the violators of evading punishment 

and the justice-seeker has to put everything on stake to prove his violation.

Our legal system is responsible for giving voice to the beasts like Mukesh who shamelessly 

held the victim responsible for her brutal rape. We really should be proud of the rights we enjoy 

as the citizens of India when a criminal can brazenly do moral policing and suggest what 

women should do and what they should not.
He knows that our law loves offenders, especially who commit serious offences and treats them most hospitably in jails by providing everything for free even security.

Kindly hear what that bas**rd has said and feel proud. You have not banned that film because 

you thought that what the interviewee said is wrong and weird but you realized that the people 

who are calm and seemed to have settled with the status-quo of rape in our society would 

awake again. You fear from the agitation.

Leslee Udwin herself is a woman, a rape victim. I wonder why she wants to show the interview 

of an unrepentant rapist in a film named ‘India’s Daughter’ to be aired on the Woman’s Day. 

Don’t stoop low in search of glory and fame. However, one thing you rightly said Ms Udwin. 

Yes, we are a sick society. Mr. Singh, are you hearing? She said we are a sick society.

And I hope you will accept it.
