Acid Attack

STOP ACID ATTACKS

Acid attack is one of the most violent crimes against women. It has been estimated that around a thousand of women suffer acid attack per year in India.

Incidence of acid attacks mostly occur when a women denies to be in a relationship with a man. Some men can’t handle rejection of any kind and they take revenge in form of acid attack. Sometimes, family disputes too result in acid attack. The women are thought to be vulnerable enough to take revenge in such form. There has also been cases where petty fights between couples has resulted in acid attack. It is very easy for a criminal to throw acid on the face of a woman and run away.

 Acid is used in day to day life for cleaning of kitchen, washroom, jewelry etc. Thus it is easily available in market at a low cost. The criminal is successful in hiding his identity by covering his face during the crime.

The main question arises that how is it possible to STOP such crimes?
The first and foremost thing is that the Indian society needs to change its mentality towards judging women. For years, our society has been habituated of cutting wings of woman. Today, the woman is being progressive and she is strong enough to deny a proposal which she thinks is not good for her. This denial or rejection is taken as aggression of modern women by some men and they develop a maniac attitude to take revenge just to satisfy their ego. 
A woman needs to be cautious and aware.  She should report any suspicious activity such as being followed by a male to her family and police. She should avoid meeting with any such person alone who she thinks can harm her. Basically she should be her own helper.
