No sir; Had Bheeshma said stop that nonsense Mahabharatha would have taken place only on envy and not on the molestation of a woman. However Bheeshma did not do it because he is 80 plus but because he wanted to protect the nation even if it was bad. Age and Dharma are not inversely proportional. Suppose if such things had happened at our home, would we say we are all 80 Plus and walk away a woman being molested? NO; only it does not happen to us , we advise. Truth is bitter but help;ess.
