Surprised why are people so negative about everything. They hate everything. Swasthani, now is read just for fun of it. Its scripture written in those days of male dominant society where women had to be preserved from invaders.
Whatever the case, its just a story. But somebody here asks for changing the story otherway round so that it pleases some people. There are tons of movies, books etc which are for and against something, so should we start the same demand. 
Swasthani should be there to let the younger generation know how women were treated in those days how far they have come.

As somebody said earlier, Little knowledge is dangerous.....truly said man.
