VIDYA
Durgotsava ke is avsar par main ek
baat poochna chaahti hoon! Maa,
behn, biwi, Devi…aurat ka astitva
te

sirf in naamon se kyun hota hai?

Lawyer, Businesswoman, Judge, Chief
rta

Minister, Prime Minister, kyun

nahi? Aurat agar ghar ka rasoi
chalaa sakti hai, toh desh bhi
in

chalaa sakti hai! Aaj kandhe se

kandha milaakar kisi bhi mard ke
saath chal sakti hai!

Just then a voice shouts out

en

JYOTI
Jhoot!

Vidya is taken aback! Through the crowd emerges an 18 year

old girl, tears in her eyes, rage on her face!

JYOTI (CONT’D)
Bas keejiye yeh jhoot! Mat
dikhaaiye inhe jhoote sapne! Kyun
ot

ki aurat is desh mein Maa, behn,

biwi, devi nahi, balki ek khilauna
io

hai…jiske saath mard jab chaahe

khel sakta hai…tod sakta hai, marod
n

sakta hai, tod-marod ke kachre ki

tarha sadak pe phenk sakta hai…aur
phir ek naya khilauna…phir ek aur
Pi

khilauna…kyun ki hum kathputliyon

ki tarha unki havas mitaane apni
ct

kok se aur khilaune paida karte

jaayenge!

Tumhaare saath kuch galat hua hai

JYOTI

Phir main sadak ke beech o beech

dum tod doongi…kya faayda hua haar
nahi maankar jab anth mein meri

haar nischit hai…Kyun ki is desh

mein Delhi ki Nirbhaya ho,
telengana ki Disha ya Unnao ki
beti, sab ka anth yahi hota hai…jab
M

meri kismet mein chhe mahine baad

jalkar marna hi hai, toh tab tak
baaki saara zulm kyun sahoon? Us se

achha hai ki haar maankar, aaj hi

jalkar maroon!

She now picks up a can of gasoline and begins to empty it on

n

herself in slow motion! A horrified Vidya runs from the stage

to stop her! As the gasoline splashes on Jyoti’s body, Vidya
uses all her strength to reach her! Jyoti lights a match and
Pi

sets herself ablaze! Vidya screams, grabbing a blanket from

one of the women and wraps it around a burning Jyoti to save
ct

her! The flames burn Vidya’s ‘pallu’ and hand too but she
doesn’t give up and douses the fire!
