On this 15th of April, it will be exactly one year since the SCOPE office was vandalized by the anti-social elements.
Perne Phata ( Perne Branch-off) is a SCOPE Resource Centre in the A couple of days before 15th of April 2012, I went to open my office at Perne Road Fork. As I opened the office, every file and paper was strewn all over the flat. The computer and laptop were smashed. some important files and other documents were in shreds.
It was difficult to take all this in. All that the people had donated over a long period of 15 to 17 years had been reduced tatters.
The SCOPE complained to the local police authorities. They too vouched that they had no trouble from the SCOPE or its people and women. But they could not say as to who were the culprits of this dastardly act.
However, my reflection on this was that:
1. it was the will of God which goaded me on to work for the poor. Since I consider it as God's work, no one can destroy the spirit with which SCOPE has been working for the underprivileged poor.
2. Often, the honest work is often hindered and the people try to break their dedication and enthusiasm.
3. There is always a section of any society which does not wish that the poor and marginalised should become aware of their own legal rights and dignity.Therefore, those who struggle to awaken the underprivileged are the targets of this particular section's anger and jealousy
