Society should save the lives of innocent Akshatas by not producing Kartiks: GIO

Mangaluru, Feb 22: Expressing shock over the coldblooded murder of a 19-year-old BSc student by her 24-year-old classmate at Sullia in Dakshina Kannada district, Girls Islamic Organization (GIO) has exhorted the people to ponder over the ways to avert recurrence of such crimes of passion in future.

Akshata K, a student of Nehru Memorial College, Sullia was stabbed seven times on the road while returning from the college on Tuesday evening by her classmate Kartik for not accepting him as her boyfriend. She breathed her last while being taken to Mangaluru for treatment. Police have managed to arrest Kartik.

In a release issued here, Shahnaz Zainab, Dakshina Kannada district unit president of GIO, said the society should not consider the case just as a sporadic incident of crime of passion by a jilted lover. 

“We should think about the role of society in creating such a jilted lover who ruthlessly murdered a teenage girl just for turning down his proposal. The murder of Akshata should lead to a debate on the current social system that produced many such Kartiks,” she said. 

Pointing out the deteriorating moral values in the society, free intermingling between men and women, and mass media’s practice of treating woman as commodity, she said that mere punishing a pervert like Kartik will not solve the issue.

“Unless the society is morally uplifted and steps are taken to prevent the youth from turning into Kartiks, the lives of innocent girls like Akshata will not be safe,” she said.

Media portraying school time love is like must have, essential thing in students' life. If they are not getting girl for being lover (infatuation), they may go for any extreme and boys will think its normal. So should stop this kind of mentality in films and tv shows. Then it will get corrected automatically
