Raise a voice....make a difference

Calling you out cause we need a favor, a help.


Was watching "Satyamevjayate" this weekend on star plus, an episode on Sexual Child Abuse. The topic is not new to me, my final year project has also been on the topic of Child Abuse. I have done lots of research on this topic already. Visited NGOs, gone through the 2007 Govt of India's survey and am well aware of statistical reports as well as the cause and remedies. Its huge an issue in the Indian society....huger than we can think of. Its a spot on Raising India's face. There are no laws against sexual child abuse in India till date. But more important than that, cases of sexual child abuse are rarely reported. We know how big a taboo it is in our society, the "log kya kahenge" question stands so big in our society that not only the abused child, but even his or her parents are also scared from talking any action. 


Its not only about sexual child abuse, it can be even a case of physical child abuse or a child neglect.


We, i.e me and 2 of my classmates, had taken up a IBM project last semester which is an online database against child abuse. We have a website ready, where you can come in and lodge your complaints against any form of child abuse witnessed, suspected or undergone. The reports will be forwarded to Indian police for respective actions to be taken. All reported cases can be viewed by registered NGOs who can take up any case and decide to help any child get out of the traumatic situation and head to a better future.


When you can't speak it out loud, we might be able to help you by making the process simpler and easier.
The entire idea behind building this site was to simplify the entire process of registering a child abuse case. 
Bring the issue out, raise a voice, so that an unfortunate child can be helped. The site is not live yet. 


Before taking the site live, I just wanted to know what is everyone's view regarding this? Do you think such a site can make a difference and being a change to the current scenario?
Also, do you think we should add anything more in here, for serving the purpose better?
Friends, just spend 2 minutes of your valuable time and put in a single line feedback. All we wanna do is bring a change, make a difference....we need your help.


(Criticism in all forms are welcome)

Equality and Equity: A Journey That Starts at Home, Beyond the Workplace!

In 2023, during the celebration of International Women's Day, I encountered the notion of " Equity " for the first time. Initially, its significance in a woman's daily life didn't strike me profoundly. However, over the past year, I've been continually reminded of its relevance on numerous occasions. Discussions around workplace Diversity and the concerted effort to elevate the presence of women in organizations, especially in leadership roles, have gained traction globally. While commendable, there's a touch of irony in this commendable endeavor. The very men who wield decision-making power in organizations, shaping policies to foster inclusivity and gender balance, often seem to leave the concept of equality at their home doorstep. As they enter their domestic realm, they discard the notion of equality as if shedding a coat, anticipating their wives to effortlessly shift from their professional roles into the responsibilities of a homemaker. It's imp...

A lot can happen over coffee....only if you are allowed to sit at a CCD outlet!

Cafe Coffee Day is no more a new name for the youngsters in India. For a warm cup of coffee at an affordable price, thats where we generally go to! But more than the cup of coffee, its the atmosphere of Café Coffee Days which attracts all of us. An informal setup...good beverage and snacks...soothing music (most of the time)...complimentary wi-fi (at many outlets)...well, CCD always had a lot to offer its customers. Photo source - https://www.zomato.com/pune/cafe-coffee-day-2-koregaon-park For Siddhartha, coffee always used to be an experience to be offered...not just beans to be grown. I have had my job interview conducted at a CCD outlet. I have hosted and attended several community meetups at different CCD outlets across the country. I have even had my coffee dates at CCDs. Well, truely, a lot has happened in my life over coffee...at different CCD outlets. Once, Siddhartha himself had spent his new year's eve, serving customers at a Café Coffee Day (CCD) outlet near C...

Afterall its Paris...

My after event blog posts are generally a report of the event...if you are looking for a report of the MDN Work-week, this is not the right post. This post is a complete non-technical and non-work oriented story of how I fell in love in and with Paris. A glance of Paris...  Paris had been a dream of mine for quite a long time, and the first time I got the invitation for MDN Workweek, I kind of knew this one was going to be awesome! Paris is beautiful...way more beautiful than my words can ever express. Every moment of this one weekend feels like a long, beautiful dream. Everything is too perfect here. This city has a weird kind of "intoxication" in its air. The more you breadth in the cool air, the more you fall in love with this city. The weather here couldn't probably be any better...its perfectly cool....not too hot, not too cold. Refreshing cool breeze just washes away all your worries and stress. Someone couldn't probably be upset in this city...its aw...
