What causes killings on campus / school ? It has been found during investigations that the killers are "very self-centered, very self-centric, volatile youngsters who derive sadistic pleasure from savage vengeance they wreak on one another. The mental world of these young killers is "all about I , Me & Myslef. They're frustrated, angry, in some pain, not getting everything they want, they feel like victims, hence have no concern for others -- they don't think about others. Dorothy Lewis, professor of psychiatry at NYU School of Medicine, told a PBS Frontline documentary that pathological aggressiveness is rooted in abuse and pain.

On 25th Mar 2009 , Jia from radio 92.7 called me up to air me on their channel on the radio. The agenda was - sharing of some tips on Women Protection to her listeners, as the assialants of Saumya Vishwanathan & Jignisha Ghosh had been absconded the previous day - was it the victory or just another facet of cruel, violent urbanisation?? Whatever it is, till such time the judgement & that too a very stern one is released the sound would not make enough resonance, the sound of fight against crime, in the mean time we can not afford to sit back & be could'nt careless about it.

Ramrajya is a distant dream - so long so that happens we need to keep ourselves prepared 'because accidents happen when least expected'.
