But, one recent social issue is bothering everyone related to one’s independence, due to incident happed in the R.G.Kar Hospital. Keeping this scenario in view, one may ask question about women’s safety and independence in the society. Where it would not be anything wrong in this question. Wrong is in the values. Wrong is in the Socialization. Wrong is there, in the making of a human looking, into a true human being. Wrong is in the proper working of coercive forces which should have act as social controlling agent; then it would not have happened. The level of cruelty this incident showed, not only Kolkata; but, the whole nation got shocked once again after Nirbhaya incident. Incorporation of good values is very important. Without which this kind of incidents keep happening , which questions about the independence of women, who are half of the part of our society. Not only city of joy Kolkata, or only West Bengal, nor only India; but, foreign countries also shaken by this brutal news. If value was incorporated properly among the criminals, then the lady would not have seen such traumatized end of her dreams. Adding value to one’s character is mostly do e by family and school. It is clear that, there was some lacking in any of these agents of Socialization.
