Manner of protesting

I personally believe that the true nature of a person is identified by the way he protests. You will see it if you observe people around you keenly. There are people who don’t say a word until they are pushed in a corner, and there are people who get nasty if their mistakes are rectified by some one. For example you can say there are people who silently bear the blaring of microphone right outside their window throughout the night, and there are people who beat them up who dare to protest about that nuisance.

Or we can talk about Bittu, he has not studied much, his favourite past time is he hangs around all the joints in locality and scrutinizes all the people who pass by minding their own businesses. His best friends are the persons of same profession as him, mostly jobless or petty workers, working for small payments.

If he sees some one smartly dressed or happy or confident some thing fumes inside him, he sneers at them and passes snide remarks. Tries to make them feel guilty for their superiority or happiness. If he sees some lady well dressed up his first remark is that woman is going for a date, if he sees a guy listening to music in his ear phone his pat remark is he is deaf, and that is his hearing aid. He calls it his way of protesting against moral corruption. He eagerly joins all kind of protest and is a snap away from vandalism, always. It takes a raindrop to make him violent.

Or we can talk about Prema, she is always dead confident that whatever she is saying is correct, if you try to talk against her opinion, she will either lose her temper and become rude or quarrel with you. As a result most of the people fall silent the moment she opens her mouth and leave her vicinity or sit beside her in dumb silence making her even more confident that she is right and everyone else is fool.

If we watch around us we will see that not only individual human beings like bittu, but societies also often act this way. Like, there are politicians, religious leaders, business men, muscle men who crush down all the possible threats to their existence, there are even more arrogant ones who crush down any thing they don’t like. Without even bothering to think about giving their victims the minimum human right.
