what i want to ask are women india really got their independence, freedom???????????????????I don't think so
Every single women in India has her Freedom. If she chooses to not to exercise her rights that is her CHOICE (she has this choice). For example Santu actually owns the entire property. If she did not have freedom then she would not own anything, but rather would be owned by others. People in India who don't have freedom are the children who get sold into slavery by their parents (eg. Agle janam)
What annoyed me about this post is that people( Dear viewbie this is not directed towards anyone in this forum or post) seem to now understand the difference between freedom and not exercising your rights. And technically, non of Santu's rights are being violated either. She is being accused to something, which could actually happen to anyone. And the accusation is her own fault, since she got back she has been working on losing her families trust (viewer know why she is doing this but not her family WHO are the ones accusing).
This lack of distinction was the reason for me asking people to get a better education (again, not directed towards anyone, there is a good chance most people here are not old enough to have taken a Poltical science course, or has discussed slavery in it.)
Lack of Freedom was when the British or other Rulers could make people do things without the people having a choice in the matter. Santu has a choice, she could defend herself, or say " I really don't care what you thing, I am innocent. "
