00:00What is the issue of civic awareness?
00:04Civic awareness is not a political issue.
00:09This has to be said very clearly.
00:13We have not come to form a political party.
00:17We have not come to spread freedom.
00:20We have only come from different backgrounds.
00:26We have come together as a collective.
00:35There is a saying here in West Bengal
00:40that women have no right to speak.
00:43There is another saying that women have no right to speak.
00:47What do we mean by women?
00:50We mean to say that any person,
00:53a woman, a protestor,
00:56or any person who thinks of herself as a woman
01:01and introduces herself as a woman,
01:04we will use the word woman from now on.
01:09This is what is written in our letter.
01:12The truth is that we all had a psychological state
01:21after the Arthikar incident.
01:24We were all in that state.
01:27I know that at that time,
01:30it was very difficult and impossible.
01:34We were all in that state.
01:37And from that, we started to think
01:40that what can we do in our state
01:43so that the safety and independence of women
01:47can be maintained for a long time.
01:51Arthikar has done this before.
01:54He has done this before.
01:57He has done this after Arthikar.
02:00We all know this.
02:04But we want to do something like this
02:07so that we can create an idea
02:10so that women's independence can be maintained in this state.
02:15And we believe that if the administration
02:18works with us,
02:21if the administration is with us,
02:24we will be able to do this.
02:27There is a need to say that
02:30we are not doing anything for the government
02:33or any other party.
02:36We are only doing it for the civil society.
02:39Why is this organization called
02:42Civil Consciousness?
02:45Because we believe that
02:48if any political party
02:51or any political party
02:54or any political party
02:57is able to move forward,
03:00then a citizen needs to be conscious
03:03about the political party.
03:06And we have written that
03:09after Arthikar's incident,
03:12the consciousness of a great political party
03:15was in the hands of the people.
03:18When the consciousness of a citizen
03:21is in the hands of the people,
03:24then we have the right
03:27to be conscious
03:30and vigilant.
03:33And the government
03:36or any party
03:39who is in the hands of the government
03:42and the administration
03:45should work with them
03:48and say that
03:51we want to change
03:54the political consciousness
03:57of the people.
