Delhi students in porn vide

New Delhi - The infamous pornographic video involving two Delhi students was
shot to gain 'popularity' among peers and 'have some fun'. Or so the popular
perception seems to be among youngsters, most of whom seem to have access to
it. If gossipmongers are to be believed, a CD of the film is even available at
Palika Bazaar for Rs 40.
Two delinquent students of a South West Delhi-based public school were expelled
for filming a pornographic video using a personal mobile phone and circulating
it in the school via Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS). Everyone, the media
included, have been pointing fingers at the school. But how far can the
institution be held responsible for what the students have done?
Reportedly, the incident occured about a month ago when a girl and a boy, both
students of Class 11, got together and filmed themselves in a compromising
position. Their subsequent claim to fame is all of 2.37 mins.
The film was then circulated among fellow batchmates in the school through MMS
for fun. Fellow students claim the girl wanted to be 'cool' and gain some
instant popularity. Unfortunately for them, the film reached the Principal who
expelled the two.
It is being said that on being questioned by the Principal, both students did
not appear to be ashamed of what they had done. In fact, the girl even
reportedly retorted, "Who doesn't do it? Haven't you done it?" The boy is
equally nonchalant about what he had done, according to his peers.
Use of cell phones, which was allowed in the school was banned with immediate
effect after the incident came to light. If anyone is spotted carrying a cell
phone, a fine of Rs 2,000 would be charged and, needless to say, the cell phone
confiscated. About 85 per cent of all Class XI and XII students of the school
used to carry cellphones to class earlier.
Both students were in the Commerce stream. Reportedly, the girl was a
merit-lister - she was part of the Class XI `super ability section' where only
above 90 percent scorers find their way. She is the daughter of a senior
Armyman. The boy hails from a stinking rich business family. The camera phone
used to shoot the video belonged to him.
And if youngsters' reports are to be believed, the 'fun video' has also found
its way into schools and colleges in Chandigarh, Punjab and Haryana. The CD,
christened `DPS Dhamaka' is also supposedly available at Palika Bazaar for a
meagre Rs 40. It has been posted on the school's unofficial websites as well,
youngsters reveal.
The video doesn't seem to have been shot inside the school, though the girl is
clearly wearing her school uniform. Even other students who have seen it,
believe it was shot outside somewhere. At best, this can be seen as a case of
adolescent temptations unleashed. The incident invites a relook at the
upbringing we are providing to our children at home and at school.
