closed eyes

KOTTAYAM, witnessed a terrible scene of  inhumanity from the educated kottayam residents.what happened in kottayam is that an old aged man  left in road(kodimatha), as he became faint. he lied in the road  for more than 3 hours , no one passed nearby considered him . They turned their face against him saying that he is a drunkard .While reading this news in Malayala Manorama , the immediate  incident  came to my mind is  the story of good Samaritan in Bible.The same thing happened here also. in Bible it was the Priest who passed the man ,but here it was the police. One police jeep passed the spot without even mind to stop the vehicle even aftter the peoiple show signals to stop the vehicle. Second group of policemen came and said  that "its out of our boundary we will  inform the chingavanam police". At last like the good Samaritan came the chingavanam police group.They lift him up to the vehicle,while moving the old man to the vehicle the gathered public stood as silent spectators as if their hands, legs and tongue were tied up with ropes. No one among the public came forward to help the police to lift the old man up.But one among the public didnt forget to pass his comment. "I thought he fell down as the after effect of consuming alchahol, he was unconscious right? why didn't you people took him to the hospital?"
The police officials admitted him to the hospital and gave him basic treatments. while the police officials inquired to him about the problem he said that he was hungry and its passed about 5 days that he had his food.

It is the responsibility of human being to help a man who needs hepl .But no one wasted there time even to look at him.Why should i shoulder a burden?,this is the immediate question that every one asks to themselves.
The incident clearly states that people are loosing there responsibility towards society.
Media groups especially print media is trying to socialize the public about the importance of helping the human. but everything went wain as no one is conscious about others and there problems
The government is trying to propagate the message to help the people in distress especially who met with accidents you will never be trapped in law.The government has bring some modifications in the law to make it public friendly. My humble request is to open your eyes towards the society , what will you do if you came in a similar situation. open your eyed do not let it shut for eyes.
