Recalling India’s biggest räpë and śêx exploitation scandal.

In the nineties, one of the most horrific cases of gang râpê in the country came to light from Ajmer. The scandal involved hundreds of young girls, some college students while others were still in schools.

The news of the scandal broke after a local paper 'Navjyoti' published some objectionable photographs and a report which claimed that school students were being blackmailed by local gangs. The whole country was deeply shocked when the revelations were made.

The scandal started with Farooq Chishti, belonging to the Khadims of Ajmer Shairf Dargah, befriending a girl from Ajmer's Sophia Girls School and luring her into the trap. After taking inappropriate photographs he started blackmailing her.

But she wasn't the first or the only victim of this notorious cycle. The gang continued to expand its operations and victimise an increasing number of girls.

O Hindu, “The greatest sin is to think yourself weak”.

On this day in 1983 Swami Vivekananda gave his iconic speech in Chicago. Opening address in thread below.

“Brothers & Sisters of America”

It fills my heart with joy unspeakable to rise in response to the warm and cordial welcome which you have given us.

I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks in the world; I thank you in the name of the mother of religions, and I thank you in the name of millions and millions of Hindu people of all classes and sects.

My thanks, also, to some of the speakers on this platform who, referring to the delegates from the Orient, have told you that these men from far-off nations may well claim the honor of bearing to different lands the idea of toleration.
