I am working as a program coordinator on HIV & AIDS theme. One afternoon someone called me in office from a village for counseling and help. He shared his problem which was about a young girl. The girl was his lovely daughter who had missed during the pilgrim tour in India when she was ten and fortunately she herself came back to home one year ago at the age of 23. One month ago she got ill and admitted to hospital and unfortunately she and her parents came to know that she has already infected with the HIV. Gradually community knew her status and they forced her to leave the village. So next morning I went to the community talked to them, oriented them and provided knowledge about HIV & AIDS and settled down the problem
It was almost 3 pm and I was returning back to home. I was waiting for bus at the stop. A group of youth aged 16 to 25 came in front of me and forced me to go in a lonely place. Initially I got frightened, but they convinced me and I followed them. I carelessly asked why? Instead of replying youngest among them began to sob. Then I gently asked the reason and they revealed me that they had several unprotected sex with the girl. It was shocking for me it embarrassed me but what could I do I referred them for VCT (Voluntary Counseling & Tasting). Later their VCT report came to me that they could not escape the virus. so please play safe.
