Creative Writing

Question: Discuss about theCreative Writing. Answer: Introduction: Bangladesh is known for its high number of cases that involve rape, the majority of which go unreported or outrightly denied. The interviewer takes the bull by the horns by unearthing the unthinkable and investigating all that unfolding behind the scenes. In the wake of such bizarre deaths and the sudden disappearance of teenage girls, Tania Rashid, an American woman who travels to Bangladesh to carry out an investigation. Such cases as gang rape have become the order of the day in Bangladesh. This female journalist takes to the screens, and she, together with the Vice go for one anothers throats in a session that attracts thousands of viewers. However, there is something particular about the interview. When Tania shoots a question to the Vice broadcaster of the rising cases and how the role of the media has not been of much help to help unearth such cases, the broadcaster loses all that would be described as impartiality. The effects of such bias can hugely be felt and treated as a twofold agendum. According to Tania, and which to some extent fulfils the argument of the public opinion, the media has given this issue and a couple of others, a wide berth. This, for instance, is evident when Rashid takes on the Bangladeshi Police Commander who rubbishes claims that the police had stood in the way of the interview in their pursuit of justice for the victim Rohima. He also refuted the widespread claims that the perpetrator was still roaming the streets. Up to this end, it remains clear that the Vice, in fear of political compromising, did not care to indulge into this weighty matter. Instead, they opted to let the issue go into thin air. Studying the mood in the room, Rashid refuted and disregarded any attempts to wish her questions away. Unfortunately for her, the victim and maybe for other prospective victims, the issue she had raised concerning police ignorance of such weighty matters did not meet the anticipations. To add the insults to the injury, the commander murmured a few words and expressed his chauvinistic attitude toward the lady, a trend that is much common among the Bangladeshi men. It was this fact that got into the nerve of Tania. She out rightly became bias in her expressions. Based on her attire, Rashid makes jokes of her vulnerability to rape, a matter we treated as a means of easing the intense pressure in the room. She then puts a stern caution to men that regardless of what kind of clothes women wear, men should not rape women on the basis of what women wear. It is clear that Rashid is angered by what she sees as the society and the Police in general, neglecting the public safety. Much as Rashid did not achieve her objectives, albeit not instantly, she made her point known and spoke for the vulnerable in society. She did her concluding remarks as a journalist by asking the Police Department to up their game and protect the interests of the common man as this is what they are employed to do.
