Rapes: They dont let me sleep, comes in my dreams 
People around the world see different dreams, dreams of going on a date, dreams of having a beautiful bungalow, car of Prince charming. But I dont see any of them. Thanks to rate of crime against women in India, I see rapes and harassment in my dreams every night.

I have never been in any such situations, but around me there are being reported many. This has led me to hating men. Yes I hate men. I hate even talking to them. I don't blame all of them for this distrust, but I hate the community.

I m a journo with a leading newspaper in Ludhiana, so I keep on hearing many. Some are cooked up, while some are really gruesome.

Last rape case I heard of was of a 21 year old hotel employee in city who was raped and left on road side. Same like nirbhaya. She has come to Ludhiana to work, from Himachal Pradesh. It was international women's day. Three rapes happened that day, other two were of minors.

These rape cases, atleast five everyday in city gives me pain, which I am expressing today. I have been living away from my family from last five years and 2015 is the first year I having dreams of my rape, my friends' rape, I dont know why.

I am strong, bold enough working as a journo. I think about common girls how they have been managing in this dirty world.

Atlast I would I like to mention that, I wanted to have a baby girl, but not now because incest rapes, people updating their experiences on net of having sex with a minor has teared my heart into pieces. I dont want a baby girl now if I settle in India.
