Wrong depiction of Ramayan by serial Siya Ke Ram

Yesterday I was watching TV and saw an advertisement of serial "Siya ke Ram". In that advertisement is was shown that Lakshman cut nose of Supnakaha because he had no respect for women and Sita was angry with Lakshman for doing that because she considered it to be an insult to womankind. 

Now a day characterless women have become face of feminism. Obscenity and characterlessness are considered essential quality of being a feminist. It is being projected that women can achieve high place only by drinking and being characterless. That is why Supnakha was depicted as victim of male chauvinistic attitude of Lakshman. Supnakaha was a characterless women and that satisfies requirement of being an icon of feminist.

The truth is that Supnakha did not propose for marriage to Ram or Lakshman but for immoral sax which both of them refused. After that Supnakha tried to kill Sita and Lakshman put a sword between Sita and Supnakha to protect Sita from Supnakha and by accident Supnakha's nose was cut. It was not intentional but neither Lakhman nor Ram apologized to Supnakha for cutting her nose because that punishment which she got was appropriate for the crime she did. I also, after 7000 years of it happening, agree with Ram and Lakshman. 

It is also being depicted that Ravana abducted Sita for taking revenge for Supnakaha. It is also not true. Ravana had no love for Supnakha. Had he be having any love for Supnakha he would have tried to killed Ram, Lakhman and Sita. But he abducted Sita because of his lust for beautiful women. I don't know of any person in History of 10,000 years who abducted someone's wife for taking revenge from him. I know of people who killed someone’s wife for taking revenge from him. But abducting someone's wife for making her his wife can't be done for revenge but for lust. 

This wrong depiction of Ramayan has been happening for last 800 years. More than 300 distorted version of Ramayana were written by different authors in last 800 years but people still believe in Ram's teaching. Lie does not have legs so can't stand firm with test of time. So these misrepresentations of Ramayana will also be rejected by people. 

The problem is with all other serials and TV programs is that they are projecting that by being characterless is the only way of being liberated be it a man or a woman. Drinking is a must for being successful and respected by others. Being characterless is another criterion for being an respected person. This kind of thinking is going to destroy Indian society. We need to stop it. 

I have decided not to allow Siya ke Ram in my house and I am following that. If you watch a serial in your house and a particular thinking is supported in that serial you children will think that you expect your children to follow that. So please be careful about serials and movies you watch.
