Is it not discrimination against gender female –

Discrimination against females on the name of custom

Indian constitution says that male and female both are equal.
Human rights say that male and female both are equal.
But only in the books of law the equality between male and female is there
In real life there is no equality.



So what happened with the actress Jayamala?
4 years back, Kannada film actress Jayamala claimed that she had touched the idol of Lord Ayyappa at the famous Sabarimala temple in violation of the hill shrine custom.

What is the custom?
Women in the 10-50 age groups are barred from entering the temple.

Jayamala had claimed she had in her prime youth, at the age of 18 entered the sanctum sanctorum and touched the idol of the presiding deity.
Now Jayamala is 50 years old.

Now in December 2010 Kerala Police filed a chargesheet against Kannada film actress Jayamala and she has been listed as the third accused after astrologer Parappanangadi Unnikrishnan and his Bangalore-based aide Raghupathy for their alleged "deliberate and malicious act to outrage" religious sentiments by hatching a conspiracy involving her.

The chargesheet was filed in the first class judicial magistrate court at Ranni in Pathanamthitta District.

The real duty of government is to bring equality among male and female.

The people who follow the customs which discriminate against females should be booked and not the female.

She has touched or entered the temple is not important.
Important is to bring the equality between male and female.

This clearly shows that female are not worthy and she is not equal to male so she can not enter the temple.

There was custom to murder a widow – now it is banned
There was a custom to not educate female – now it is banned
There was a custom not to allow Dalit to enter temple – now this is banned.
The time has come to allow females to enter every temple, custom is not important

Important is equality and our constitution.
