HIV positive - what delhi government is doing

I just read a news article about Delhi Government giving aid to HIV positive patients. Obviously its a great initiative. Specially when Delhi is the first state in the country to have initiated such a scheme to help the HIV positive people.

But i was aghast to read the amount being paid to these people. Also why having various criteria of giving such help. We all know AIDS is dreadful disease. It may happen because of any reasons, but then we should not treat HIV infected people like society's dead wood. I am really surprised, how the government comes up with such a minimal amount of Rs.1000/- per month for welfare of these people. Below mentioned is the excerpts from the news article.

" While people registered with the government and presently undergoing antiretroviral treatment at any of the nine listed government health centres will get Rs. 1,000 every month, HIV positive orphans, destitute or abandoned children living in government shelter homes will be given a compensation of Rs. 2,050.


Among other criteria for HIV aid eligibility are that the infected person should be a Delhi resident for the past three years, with a family annual income of not more than Rs. 1 lakh.
The destitute or orphans should be born of either parent died of the deadly virus. " 

Hopefully there are  NGOs and  other agencies who are working for welfare of AIDS patients and other HIV positive people.  Expecting everything from government is really not desirable.

why sodomize when you can have sex with other gay guys


Here is the news in today's Times of India. 


Mentally ill youth sodomized at shelter house


Rohtak: Close on the heels of the Apna Ghar scandal, a mentally disabled youth from Delhi was allegedly sodomised here at an NGO-run institute, following which police have booked its warden on Sunday. 
In his complaint, Navratan Sharma, father of the 22-yearold youth, said he had taken his son to Delhi from the Shravan Institute when he complained about some health problem a few days ago. “My son disclosed that he was sodomized by the warden,” Navratan said. PTI



I really can not understand, why people sodomize others. Have'nt they heard of gay communities like planetromeo or desiboys where they can meet other gay guys and enjoy. What is the fun of sodomizing other people. 


This is really sad and funny. Though I am also a victim of the same. When I was a child, I have been abused by people in buses. But that time I never knew what it is all about. I was also scared at that time to open up and tell my family about it. 


But I really wanna voice against such an acts, specially when our country is opening up to the gay culture.
