Hello everyone,
Here in this post I am going to tell you about the LAPTOP PROTEST of engineering students of kerala.
What is Laptop Protest?
First of all let us understand what is laptop protest. Actually it is a protest started by engineering student of Thiruvananthapuram against the moral policing. In this protest students of engineering college sit on the laps of opposite gender to clap back at the moral policies.
Why they do Laptop Protest?
According to
TOI report it happens on wednesday when local peoples of Sreekaryam broke the benches at the waiting shed to avoid sitting of girls and boys together.
Acoording to students they use this shed to wait for their buses and in this girls and boys sit on the same place but the local people of a nearby society take it in a negative way, they also do negative comments on seeing us sitting together. But when the locals break the benches in the shed area they are forced to do something. Students say that they also went to police for their help but they don't took any action and thus they took this step.
One of the student Nandana says "Our photo was not a fight against the residents, but there is a need to educate them to view students without the barrier of gender”
How Laptop Protest got the support?
According to students, when they posted the picture of each other sitting on the laps of opposite gender, the pictures got viral and lot of people from facebook comes in the support for their step. They are surprised when they get the support from their seniors too.
Not only by the students of colleges and facebook they also get the
support from the SFI and DYFI too. However they received negative comments too when they posted this picture but they believed that these things are OK when majority and justice is on their side.
Is laptop protest right or wrong?
Now a general question which arrives in everyone mind is that whether this kind of protest are right or wrong. Actually in this situation no one is wrong but the situation is wrong. Actually the circumstances in which our elder generation grew up and the circumstances our generation grew up are completely different and this type of problems or behaviour of elders occur due to generation gap but in my view our elder generation must have to understand this and must try to change their attitude and thinking towards boys and girls. I know every one can't able to change it. But they can at least change their attitude toward the students. In this modern world any work can be completed only when both boys and girls work together to complete it we must have to understand that "Boys and girls are not different, they differ just by body structure after all they both are human being"
Will the need of these protest came in present days?
These types of protest and views always force us to think whether the time has come to do such protest and improve the thinking of society.Let us now clarify it in details:-
We all know that our elders grew up in the circumstances when girls don't do office work but the new generation grew up in circumstances where they saw girls and boys doing work together in offices and at every place due to which the new generation don't take working of opposite gender together as a awkward situation and thus their mind is developed to work together with opposite gender and thus I think if we want to see a developed and powerful India then we must have to change our attitude toward working together or staying together of opposite gender.
So to sum up all we can say that the answer of question whether laptop protest is right or wrong depend on the thinking and attitude of every common man. Please share your views with us by commenting below and keep reading my blogs regularly if you want to know more about the "The developed India"
