The President of the women's wing K.K Fathima Suhra from Kerala in a statement
said that, "Whether such round the clock machines could effectively prevent
AIDS is only a secondary question. We're quite sorry that our Health Minister
himself inaugurated the condom vending machine in the state."
The organization feels that with the easy access to discounted and easily
available condoms would also increase the risk of women going astray. "Earlier,
women were not as open in leading a promiscuous life in fear that they may get
pregnant. Now they don't have to fear with the condom vending machines ready at
every corner", K.K Fathima Suhra explained.
In her opinion, people have already getting sexually provoked through the
various presentations in the media. " The only way to prevent AIDS is to infuse
moral values in the society." Concluded Ms. K.K Fathima Suhra
However, this outcry by the women's wing does not provide solution to the
problem of increasing AIDS victims and unwanted teenage pregnancies in the
country.
The government's strong move maybe the only positive step forward in creating
the vital awareness in the society on the use of condoms and proper protection
during sexual intercourse.
The instillation of strong moral values is a stride that perhaps organizations,
women wing's and individuals have to take and create the "better, morally
intact Indian society". However, with the current scenario the government has
to find ways to work around the problem, we as a country face. After all,
neither the Indian government nor the public want to lose the fight against the
spread of AIDS. This silent epidemic spreading around the globe has already
entered into our homes. And it is time to sound the alarm.
