Yet another instance of what we call, death of humanity… This another case of public apathy simply strengthens our belief that no matter what, nothing is going to ever change here in India. Public and personalities will fight over if India is tolerable or not, Candle march will happen for every other Nirbhaya, and yet the victims will be free and awarded with prizes..
As rude and bad as it sounds, the reality is much worse… This incident that took place in Bareilly in enough to give you a reality check, a 35-year-old farmer who was on his way to purchase a buffalo took the National Highway for traveling, little did he know that a farmer in India are the most important yet underrated people. As fate would have it, a heavy duty vehicle hit the bike and the other two persons who accompanied the victim, also injured themselves badly.
35-year-old Tejpal, was hit by a speeding vehicle and fell of the bike, and injured himself severely. While many passerby looked at his condition, but what they did was beyond our imagination. The money that he was carrying was looted, yes the total 35K was snatched from him and he was left abandoned on road to die.
His companion and cousin, also seriously injured, begged for help but the men who came, just took the cash and went away..Later when the cops arrived from Bithri Chainpur police station, the victims were rushed to a nearby hospital but Tejpal had bled too much by then to survive.
