[00:00:00]You're a mom. You've had many happy touchwood marriages in your own family.

[00:00:05]Which parent would not want um you know their children to find love and fulfillment? But it can't be at the cost of dignity and selfrespect and equality and basic happiness. You know what are your what are your thoughts at this moment?

[00:00:20]when I watched your interview very very intensely and very carefully and the lady sounds more like a like a politician than um a judge who clearly lacked any kind of compassion and certainly no distance uh from her environment and was so quick to slander a daughter-in-law.

[00:00:43]I would say she was doing all of it bark with the knowledge that she is somehow protected. Now I'm saying this without any evidence, without a shred of anything at all. But a woman who can talk so brazenly must have some connections either in the judiciary or with the local police station because like the brother said uh in in an interview I saw and hats off to him for speaking up and speaking up so boldly, we expect nothing less from ai.

[00:01:14]He said the police station was not even a minute away from their home. Yet the first call after she was found dead was not by her family, her marital family, but by his family, that is Kisha's own family, her home, her parents. Now, isn't that strange? Wouldn't that strike anyone as being really odd? What were they trying to cover up? Interestingly also Barka when I posted uh my own interview which was yesterday on a network I had a lot of responses but the one that struck out the most was from a young person who said she was in touch with with Trisha in April on a professional matter the girl seemed affable normal um ambitious cheerful and looking a career like she didn't sound deranged. She didn't sound drugged. And uh I wonder what kind of a conspiracy would make a woman like this retired judge. She should be ashamed, her colleagues should be ashamed of her to call herself a judge at all. You know, when we start treating our daughters-in-law not like Bahanis but like noises because some of her interviews she's talked about this girl not removing the breakfast plates. She's talked about her son her soni being poor. She's boasted about we are rajuts.

[00:02:41]This is not how we expect our daughters-in-law to behave. She's talked about her daughter-in-law coming into their home reciting Sanskrit shlokas which were then chucked right out of the window when her real avatar according to her mother-in-law was revealed to the family. Now I'd like to ask this when she's saying all of this. There are there is something called small rebellions that women who are in a trap like Kisha obviously was resort to. They have no other opinion, no other option but to strike out a little bit against a family that is all consuming in their in their hatred and in their uh rejection of her in their home. So if she's refusing to remove the plates, I'm sure they had staff to do it. But apart from anything else, bark, this is not happening in a village. This is not happening in a illiterate home. This is not happening in a backward region of India. This is happening with people like you like like like you and me and our families and our colleagues and people we've grown up with and thought were educated enough sensitive enough not to resort to something so medieval and so cruel. As a mother, this is what I found most disturbing. That the minute you let someone like this lady, this judge get away with it. There'll be other people equally entitled who will do exactly the same thing. Visha is very fortunate to have a brother who speaking up on her behalf. She's fortunate to have parents who are not taking it light down lying down. Maybe they've been intimidated. I don't know. But if they haven't, it's too late to intimidate them now. It's all out there. And across India there is a a an outcry and there's outrage and waves and waves of empathy and sympathy for a girl who could have been saved. That's
