See, how she translates “Chupaya”

By Mukhtar Paras Shah

Just before midnight of 31st March 2020 I realized to write down my thoughts into words. Words matters, so as actions you know. The need of this hour is to discard my sophsticate drama and to pour honest relation on the page that is between my mind and heart that sprung up in the result of current scenario of the country.

I am not good in using technology, working on laptops for hours and in using social media. These all things offends me because I feel like they treat us as we always rely on them and we don’t have enough capacity to command our hands. Let me get straight on the notion on which my mind enforced me to write on it. The notion came when I recieved a call on my phone my mind instantly went on the 7th sky of this universe. What is relationship? or i can say what kind of relationship we have? We have a word in our national language urdu “Chupaya” which means four legs animal and often used for cattles in our country. I feel like human is no more different from this chupaya as he always wants to entangled himself from all of his four sides. He wants to use all 6th senses he has. He is more curious about what he hasn’t.

In my opinion when a human spread his two arms and legs he becomes automatically chupaya and the cruel people of his society starts pulling him from all of his four sides and at last they break him. Now what happened when he turned home for his wife and children he automatically tired and become a reason of trouble for his family.

I hate these kinds of chupayas you know that become the reason of tears of their family and spend all their energies on others in developing unreliable relations in society. I have many examples in my own surroundings and family who have spent major part of their lives in making merry of others in solving problems of others, and their own home is a bleak picture of just rotten eggs and nothing.

Feminism: A movement to end sexism I don’t know why a lot of people are afraid of women’s and girls’ rights. So many people send me messages on messenger not to speak for (بے حیائی). Demanding equal rights for the oppressed women is not (بے حیائی). This is the fight against harassment. And dear men, harassment isn’t confined to work place only. Women & girls are even harassed in the so-called educational institutions by the educated misogynists. Can you identify an organisation, university, or any other social platform that ensures or provides safe environment to girls & women? The answer is surely No. The problem with a lot of people who call themselves so-called feminists is that they misunderstand the meaning of feminism. Feminism is the belief in social, economic and political equality of the sexes. In other words, feminism is a movement to end sexism. There are a lot of reasons of harassment that women go through. Among them, the primary one is the patriarchal society. A society where men are dominant. Patriarchy cannot be eradicated completely. However, we can struggle to fight for the rights of women by educating our youth. People ask for girls education. Girls are already pursuing education in different institutions. The problem is that they are repeatedly harassed by the nasty patriarchal mindsets that exist here. Unless we endeavour to end the system that prejudices people based on their sexes, we cannot think of a safe environment for our mothers & sisters at any type of work place. Remember, book reading plays a pivotal role in this regard. Majority of our youth are not truly sincere with themselves. Being a student of honors at Balochistan University Of Information Technology Engineering And Management Sciences (BUITEMS), I see a lot of youth in university sitting in different canteens, waisting their time being indulged in useless conversations with each other. Most of the students are concerned about marks. Getting a desired CGPA satisfy them. Majority of the students say that they just attend classes for the sake of passing time. However, there are very few ones who come to university with full enthusiasm and are truly sincere with their studies. They are the real ones who realise the importance of girls & women in this world. Apart from teaching text books, our teachers should also promote the importance of reading researched books. Teachers can play a significant role in promoting book reading culture. They can help our youth how to think critically, and how to take critical approache while reading something. Let’s not squander our time. Let’s struggle to ensure a better and safe environment to our sisters. Let’s struggle to fight for the rights of oppressed ones. Unless we the youth come out of our comfort zones and take the primary responsibility of educating each other through promoting the book reading culture, we cannot think of a better and prosperous society.
