If you do wrong you ought to be punished

Looking at the way I have been writing, it's been pretty obvious that I write when I feel so many thoughts going through my head. Today 29th December is a sad day in the country on the demise of the 23 year old girl after her brutal gang   rape and torture. I have been hearing a lot of noise or news as I must say from various media houses on TV. I personally always had a lot going through my head by getting to know about the no. of incidents of rape over the last year through news channels of course.
