It has not even been two weeks since the first episode of Satyamev Jayate was telecast, turning the spotlight on female foeticide. The political vultures have started already started circling! Look at this response from the Rajasthan State Minister for Health.
The honourable minister claims that Aamir has done nothing concrete in ridding female foeticide, and that he and his government is the one doing all the work. Drawing a compensation of Rs. 3 crores makes Aamir Khan not deserving of any credit in highlighting this issue, as after all he did it for money.
Point well-taken. Here are some more points:
1. Aamir Khan has used his fame and clout, now let's see the minister use his.
2. Either refute the claim that those accused doctors are still practicing and earning, or shift the case to a fast-track court. The show stung the minister because it was specific. So should his response.
3. Is the minister working for the government for free? If not, why does he deserve any credit for what he is doing?
Star Plus agreed to pay crores. Let the minister try his luck at salary negotiation with his employer.
4. Delhi Police should stop going after eve-teasers. After all, why single out Delhi when the problem is in the whole of India?
