WELCOME TO THIS BLOG :)

I may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. Because Freedom of Expression does not mean Freedom to Say What Everybody Else Wants to Hear.

Thank You Blogadda.

Traditionally this man would be labelled a Joru Ka Gulam.

Who is a JKG?

In India it takes a lot of guts for a man to take a stand against customs that oppress women. It's worst if he is fighting in support of his wife (Joru)! All such acts of courage are rewarded by labeling them 'JKGs = Joru Ka Gulam'. Literal meaning: 'Slave of Wife'
