A black experience of witnessing Eve teasing
In the pursuit of life we all have to wander in society. But sadly, we have not yet been able to provide security for our mothers and sisters. They are still victims of eve-teasing at different times.
Yes. I also witnessed such an incident a few days ago. I boarded the Silk City train from Dhaka to the Ishwardi bypass destination. Jha (ঝ) was the bogie. There were two sisters in my back seat. The incident took place just before Ishwardi reached the bypass. I was looking at the map as the train did not announce the arrival of any station. After crossing the Baral Bridge, I saw my two sisters go to the gate with their bags. 9 o'clock at night. Most of the people got off at Chatmohar station.The sisters actually thought they had reached the station. I could see from my place that they were standing there. There was no one else there. As the bogie became empty, I also became confused that I might have arrived. So I went to the gate. Until then, I did not understand that the sisters were in danger. I went there and saw about seven boys smoking cigarettes at the other gate. And they are teasing the sisters very badly. I was not ready to watch it.So I put my mobile in pocket and stood there. Even then they were commenting very badly. I thought there was a way to save them. So it was about ten minutes to reach the station. I stood in the middle of them the whole time. So they started talking a lot about me. I stood there not listening to them.
About 10 minutes later, arriving at the station, I unloaded their baggage. Of course, I realized that they could harm me too, so I tried to save them in silence without saying a word.

This is the first time I saw such eveteasing with my own eyes.I have never realized before how helpless a girl is in eveteasing. I was very upset to see these. Even then I feel successful that I have been able to save lives and property by standing in the middle.
Those of us mothers and sisters need to be more careful in public transport. Sadly we have not yet been able to provide security to our women. May Allah protect everything. Ameen.
