It is disgusting to watch on television news the incidents of police attacks and brutalities on women demonstrators in Dhaka streets and educational institutes. People should be feeling ashamed to watch these police brutalities on women. Women fought for their rights for centuries and in the later part of twentieth century they have proved excellence in fields where men dominated. Be it flying an aircraft or ruling the country.

Why are they being treated so shabbily in a civilised society?
