In the scenario How a women can be free so it is explicit to say I also face lots of difficulties and challenges and when you are conscious being, you know the inequality widely prevail around you and when you dare to put questions, raise your voice and critically understands the system. Then you have to face hard lift.

Free society from yolk of slavery, from cultural barrier, from particular psyche. People should work for the equal treatment of male and female. Child upbringing can bring most effective result.

I can't sketch all the situation in words. That incident hit me badly and I was stunned that how people can treat like this.

A: Firstly I have to tell you that people with these mind set don't know what's the humanity. they are far from the concept humanity. We have to educate them and also we have to awake those people who are in deep sleep which is deepest than ocean.
