Communities and its Problems

The community that intrigues me the most is the Indian community, even with those vibrant cultures India certainly has been going down in standards amongst the eyes of the people, mainly due to the fluctuating crime rates. Though there are varieties of crime the ones most evident are Human Trafficking, Corrupt Political systems and Robbery/Assault. The following paragraphs explain in detail the listed crimes. Human Trafficking can be defined as "the illegal movement of people, typically for the purposes of forced labour or commercial sexual exploitation" as stated in the oxford dictionary. The point i am focussing on is "sexual exploitation" commonly known as rape. The whole world was shocked with the event that took place in december 2012. As claimed by the "Hindustan Times" a leading newspaper agent said that a "23-year-old had been raped in a moving bus by four people for about 25 minutes on Sunday night, and doctors who attended on her said she seemed tohave been beaten with a blunt object and sustained injuries to the stomach and intestine". Such revolting action stirred much anger and for the whole of the following week continuos protests took place to find the accused and with much pressure the judge gave them a death sentence the most surprising fact is that non of them were past criminals. Delhi was given the name rape capital in 2005 where it experienced a record high rape rate of "660" a year molestation equally competing reaching a record of "653" in 2011.The reason i chose this topic is mainly because rape not only takes place in India but in other countries. India being our neighbouring country my family and i make frequent trips and also since we are hindus we visit our native temples, every time i pack my bags i double check the clothes i take since i have being a victim of the nasty comments that the men there make if you wear anything above your knees, its disgusts and angers me but at that moment i have no choice
