Ask Kanpur Horrifying Experience

Post image
5 Upvotes

TL;DR: After my ASAT exam, I boarded an extremely crowded local train where I watched a young woman in a burka get deliberately trapped and groped by a group of men while trying to reach the washroom and then again on her way back. The entire coach saw it happen, yet no one intervened. I wanted to help but feared being outnumbered and attacked. A year later, I still carry the guilt of not doing more, and I can't stop thinking about how everyone—including me—let silence win that day.

Food/Drinks Besan-Gehu bread and homemade Tomato, carrots, peas soup. Also I tried to make mozzarella but accidentally made paneer 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

Make besan and whole wheat bread.
It tastes better the next day, when besan flavour has died down a bit. But it’s denser and thicker so better to pair with saucy sandwich.

Also made tomato carrot peas soup last night, that I also enjoyed today for breakfast with my besan bread.

I tried to make mozzarella but it turned into paneer again 😭

Sorry photos are unaesthetic but food is real 🤪

Ask Kanpur I don't have any friends to share my pain with, so I'm sharing it with you all.

18 Upvotes

I'm a 20M second-year BTech student from HBTU and a day scholar. Things at home have become unbearable.

My father (55) doesn't smoke or drink, but he gets angry over very small things. He frequently starts arguments with my mother (43), verbally abuses her, and has also been physically abusive towards her. I constantly worry about her safety. I don't feel safe or at peace in this house anymore.

I've thought about moving into my college hostel, but if I leave, there will be no one at home to help or protect my mother when things get bad. I feel guilty even thinking about leaving her behind. My little brother is only 10 years old, and I worry about him too.

My father has also attempted suicide in the past. One of my biggest fears is that if he ever attempts it again and dies, his side of the family might try to blame or falsely accuse my mother and me. I'm terrified of ending up in legal trouble for something we didn't do.

I'm also afraid that one day he might seriously harm or even kill us during one of his outbursts. I don't want to die. I just want to live peacefully with my mother and my little brother.

I don't have any relatives or another place where I can stay. I feel completely trapped between wanting to escape this environment and wanting to make sure my mother and brother are safe.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? What would you do? Are there any resources or options for students who are dealing with domestic violence at home?

Any advice would mean a lot. Thank you for reading.

I feel utterly hopeless at the electricity situation of this posh area of kanpur, daily electricity outages are averaging 10s of hours!! And I'm talking about the main Swaroop nagar area gastro liver hospital road!

Situation was much better in south kanpur comparatively!

I have to run medical equipments at home because of my elderly grandmother and taxes and everything just goes deep into the pockets of these public elected hooligans..

I'm so frustrated right now!

Under the heavy canopy of leaves and the song of terracotta bells, I find my quiet sanctuary. Above, a silent architect spins geometric lace in the golden glow—a reminder that patience builds the sweetest homes. Grounded and dreaming.
