A Republic Day Present !!

A couple of days before the 56th Republic Day, ME witnessed the unimaginable-the repulsive-the gruesome. A Mr.Gopalkrishan Kashyap immolated himself in broad daylight in public view, protesting against the shutting down of his shop in Punjab. It seems he had repeatedly sent complaints to the administration and warned of his act... But his demands were not met...

What was worse is that people had actually gathered to witness the act(!!!!!). There were television crews which interviewed him before he did the unthinkable. Policemen were present there too.

He poured fuel and lit himself up. And people stood and watched him do that (how disgusting and despicable). The policemen present didnt do anything (no complaints- what more can one expect from them?). A few sane(??) people did eventually use blankets to curb the fire. But alas! it was too late!! The person already had 80-90% burns and today succumbed to the injuries!

Yesterday, this disturbing footage was continuously being aired on television.. & today, our responsible media shoots the question 'shouldn't the cameraman shooting the scene have rushed to prevent the self-immolation'. Give me a break you sick people.....

Section 309 states that attempted suicide is a criminal offense.. what the f*** was the uniformed creature viewing this crime doing??? And it is just another tight slap on the face of humanity, on the face of the very concept of society & of course the nation!!

Enjoy, the Republic Day, which happens to be just another holiday.......
