Aamir Khan’s ambitious television show ‘Satyamev Jayate’ completed its 3 week journey on television and came to an end this Sunday with a hope to have stirred the conscience of the nation and a hope to make a difference within the days to come.
Aamir’s talk show focussed on several burning problems with our society starting from female foeticide, child sex abuse, medical malpractice, manual scavenging and dowry. Aamir also took pains off-screen to cope with the problems further. He met Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot to request the creation of a quick track court to make a decision the cases of the doctors, none of who've been penalised within the female foeticide cases.
“When India’s leaders envisaged building a brand new nation after independence, the constitution was the basis stone of this endeavour. We had resolved to ascertain a sovereign, secular, democratic republic with justice, liberty, equality and fraternity for all. After 65 years of Independence, are we really living as much as those principles,” Aamir asked.
The final episode appreciated and taken to limelight the contribution of The Sarvodaya Trust in giving shelter to both Hindu and Muslim children after the 2001 devastating earthquake in Gujarat , the contribution of Sunitha Krishnan in rehabilitating prostitutes and rape victims through her anti-trafficking organisation Prajwala and likewise the efforts of Naseema Hurzuk, a wheelchair bound lady who runs Helpers Of The Handicapped, an organisation helps disabled.
