Fear Of Going On The Streets

It’s a shame! Several rape cases in the capital itself have unfortunately left those women devastated.

The college girl of Maulana Azad Medical College was traumatised the same way called as a gang rape. A gang rape in 2002 committed by three minors who dragged the fourth year medical student to the ruins of the fort where the crime was committed.

Astonishingly, the crime spot is merely 500 metres from the police station. Even after three days of the incident, police failed to record the statement of the girl.
Below link leads to the details: http://ia.rediff.com/www/news/2002/nov/18onkar.htm

The capital has shown to be the most unsafe place for women in the country with the crime charts soaring high in the number of the registered cases this year, including last year’s too.

Consequently, the girl is physically and mentally traumatised.

As I asked several girls in my college about their opinion, a strong protest and an outburst as an outcome. As per Natasha, a IInd year Arts student,

This is a havoc which just destroys a woman’s, a girl’s whole life.

This is the irony of being a woman in India that in a country where a female being is a symbol of respect, where a woman is termed as ‘Mata’ and worshipped, also faces such ostracization from the family and the society if she becomes a victim of sexual assault. In an open court victims must prove that the rapist sexually penetrated them in order to get a conviction. This is shattering to the girl who faces a second blow to her respect after a death blow to her honour.

The bad aspect about all these affairs is that police, many a times favour the sex-obsessed maniacs when bribed

, Romila Gala, a house wife.

Ankita, final year B.Sc student said,

Society too, does not leaves any stones unturned to add up to her misery.

According to media reports, in 2005, a slum woman abducted while walking home and was repeatedly raped in a moving vehicle picking women seems to have become as easy as picking up an ice-cream from an ice cream vendor on the streets.
Follow the link for more information: http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/3708.asp

Trend shows that the prominent reason behind police taking action slowly is the political connections with the gang rapists.

The girls who are victimised later are not able to put their life back on track because in most of the cases they are oppressed and if they protest they themselves have to face hardships from police.
Many believe that these crimes can only be stopped unless and until people don’t keep mum and their eyes shut towards such injustice. They will have to be bold enough to protest and not to worry about the social disgrace.

And, the only punishment these people deserve is a miserable death sentence.

Hey,

That’s what I wanted to bring out for the people to realise. That by curbing down the freedom of their own girls they are letting the criminals be confident for their misdeeds. That they are actually afraid of these anti-social elements.

These are no traits of a free country. Look for example the laws of muslim countries like Israel.

Men who rape women are the most dangerous elements of our society. All our developments becomes nil till the time women doesn't feel safe in their own country. Some strict punishments should be announced against rapists because in current scenario, none of them seem to be scared of the police and law. There is something definitely wrong somewhere.

Hey,

I strictly agree with what Gaurav has said. However, there is also a problem with what the laws say for womens’ rights. I mean the laws are still weaker which need to be revised. Because its this way that if people will gradually have faith in the judiciary then simultaneously it will make them much stonger and bold to protest.

Hey Prasoon,

I am afraid you have messed up all the points and given a conclusion of yours trying to prove me wrong. In fact, I definitely agree with the point of self protection. However, the point of society blaming-the-victim-comes later as the repurcussions which the victim has to face. I hope now you got me.

You must be knowing better what happens in US but in India, it is still prevalent.

Now you came to the main point. To castrate the culprits is not the solution of the problem. We have to find out the social reasons behind the increase in the rape cases. All other solutions will be temporary.

Increase in rape cases are because its so easy to apply. Like dowry cases rape cases are also becoming a means to harrass men for meeting ulterior motives. The irony is that actual victims are also getting considered as frauds. As far as rape is concerned United States stands in 9th place where as India is in 56th place. Apparently, Indian women are far more safe than American women.

By saying that I’m not promoting rape, but to point the fact that its not the problem with the society or laws. Its about the matter of self protection.

There are a lot of road side robbery, pick pockets and armed robbery any where in the world; if we know about that in advance what we normally do is either dont carry too much valuables with us or to take a different route. So is the case with any crime. There is no need to curse a particular society for any offense. Positive and Negative are part of this world. Just being alert and vigilant is the solution. Not capital sentence or sentence without enquiry and trial.

Sexual assault should not happen to anyone. People have to be bold enough and administration needs to be responsive enough to take control of the situation and set the culprit in prison.

Yes sexual assault should not happen to any one but these are happening particularly against the women. The economic policies are presetting the women as an object not as human being. Right from morning till mid night we can see the women on TV in the serials, ads and other programs. People think that this is the indication of liberating women but it is not so. Market forces are exploiting the women deliberately.

It's the problem with the Indians. We don't have farsightedness. Improving the law and order is necessary not only to stop the rapes but to check the other crimes also. For stopping the people from committing the rape we need to change their thoughts.

When you talk about changing the thought process, this can't be done and achieved overnight but then we have to save the women now, today. Imagine, as you and me are typing this comment, some woman is getting raped somewhere. We have to save them. Self defense is must. And no other punishment is suitable than castration of the rapists.

If lack of laws are the reason for rape, why are we not able to crub murders? Women were making damn big of a deal about the dress codes for students in Kanpur. They dont want Muslim kinda strict laws in that matter. But here people are so big fan of Muslim laws. :))

One- I don't care if its a muslim law or a jewish law or a christian law. Castration is the permanent solution of the rapist so that he never commits the crime again.

Two- When i say about Castration, i am not thinking about the culprit but the victim who has takes years to come out of trauma. And imagine a situation where a girl is raped by five or ten men...can she ever forget that incident??

So similarly, the culprit should be punished in a way that he never forgets the crime that he did. Each time he sees that he is castrated, let him live in remorse and repentance of committing the crime, the way victim lives in the pain of being raped.

Current law doesn't scare them because they know that they'll be set free on bail and later the case would take years to get solved and by that time, they can harras the girl and the family to withdraw the case.

We know Indian judiciary very well...On the spot solution is better and this will create fear in other's as well.

What I mean to convey is that every judiciary, all over the world has some negativities or loopholes too.

If rape victims are being accused and punished within a long span of time then its actually the opposite in the muslim countries.

Lets establish Muslim laws so that there is no room for becoming a rapist. Statistics shows Saudi Arabia has got the lowest rapes. Their laws seems working well. Seems like Ekta and Priyanka are more interested in castration than to curb the crime.

All cases in India takes a decade or more to finish. There are about 4 crore backlog of cases right now. Even those who falsely implicated in Rape cases are traumatised for that many years. So there should be strict investigation and detail and thorough trail before conviction. Every one is entitled to civil and fundamental rights regardless of religion caste creed or sex.

Feminazis may have utopian irrational and lunatic ideas which is better to keep it with themselves. We are looking forward to improve the society.

One very important thing that I forgot to mention is that the much evident disease spread amongst the society or whatever is this Pornography. In my opinion, pornography in itself is violence against women.

Aroused or influenced by these videos or pictures make men get violent against women since they consider the actions in the videos to be natural and behave like wise which is a big no-no.

How about establishing Saudi laws in India, Priyanka?

I know you wont like it at all. For your information and your fellow stupid feminazis, studies shows that pornography reduces rape.

Oh God, Pasoon,

Don’t try so hard to prove us all wrong. For your kind information pornography is also a place which encourages criminals to act so cruelly towards women.
We don’t need statistics to prove that Rape is a crime and there are very less laws to help women save themselves from the later consequences and several years involved in gaining justice.

And, also, if ever the study of ’pornography could have been reducing the number or rapes’ then my dear friend goverments would had made watching pornography legal.

Thanks Kathleen for your comment.

Prianka: Why are you so interested to be a victim? Without statistics how are you supposed to know whether or not things are getting better? Seems you dont want to see women in India much safer than those women in America! Current Indian laws are more than enough for any offences, if you dont know about laws thats your problem. Apparently, we are working on to repeal several redundant laws which were enacted in the name of women protection and thats getting rampantly misused.

India govt havent set any restrictions on porn sites. Isnt that enough for your dump head to understand that?

Hey Passoon,

Firstly,if you think that able to feel the pain or empathise with the victim is being interested to be a victimhood, then yes, I am a victim.

Secondly, please go through the article carefully. I have not discussed anything happening foreign. The article is about what is happening in India. There is no comparison to be done in the number of rapes committed in India or America. Rape is a crime against womanhood, no matter how many times it has been done.

Thirdly, apart from false cases registered there are many case which are not being even registered. Because of fear of social outcast and police pressure too.

Fourthly, Indian laws are definitely not sufficient enough, for the crime called as RAPE. Mind it, this article talks about this crime only. Its you who has no idea about the kind of laws prevalent. Follow the below link please:

http://www.legalserviceindia.com/articles/rape_laws.htm

Fifthly,the article only talks about those crimes which have been proved and the accused have been convicted. No body can deny this fact that if there is a small percentage of false cases registered then there is a far more bigger percentage of rapes actually being happening in INDIA and not America.

Sixthly, online pornography is illegal in India. It is a punishable offence.
Follow the below link:

http://netsafety.nic.in/cyberlaws.htm

Lastly, by the usage of your language to address people, it seems that you yourself belong to a section of people who don’t want women to be empowered in this male dominated society in India. Or, as a matter of fact, don’t want actual victims to be get quick justice.

The system offers the perfect means for an accused rapist to wear out the victim. Murder trials last for decades in India. Often, verdicts are produced only after the deaths of the accused or complainant. Just what is the point of filing a case when everything - society, family, police, legal seems to throw hurdles in your path? Isn’t it normal for someone to just want to try and forget the rape and get on with it?

Passoon, you should have that much sense of not to compare rape with crimes like murders, pick-pocketting, robbery etc.
Murders involve harm to the physical frame of the victim whereas RAPES are heinous crimes which take toll of the physical, mental and social figure of the victim.

We do not hear about the massive number of them happening all the time. The police, even when they get to know of a rape, or even when a rape victim approaches them, almost always discourages the family from filing a complaint. Often they are threatened, if the alleged rapist is someone in a powerful position. Some other times, the police reminds the victim’s family of the social repercussions and attention (and permanent social humiliation, no marriages for anyone else in the family etc. etc) and the victim returns home to wash away all evidence of the crime.

I’m trying to make you understand that Indian women are much more safe than women in USA. You dont want to hear good news and you are not interested to see women in India facing less offences than on the other side of the planet; the so called liberal society.

I didnt say that Indians can do more rapes to catch up with USA. I’m trying to make you understand that it is not the society that makes Rape happen, but instead even the most liberal societies are experiencing Rapes.

Indian laws are absolutely sufficient for RAPE; the link you gave is talking about sexual harrassment, molestation etc and it is trying to bring another lunatic law for workplace. If the recommendation gets enacted then it will become another tool for women to blackmail and extortion (just like Dowry laws), thereby taking undue advantage of officials. To cover those sexual assaults and physical aggravations which may not amount to ’RAPE’, we already have IPC Sec 354. (Assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty). The demand for a duplicate law definitly has some ulterior motives than ”protection of women”.

It is absolute bullshit to say existing laws take longer time to get money (compensation/”justice”) and so we need new laws. The huge backlog of cases are because of the inefficiency of the system not the problem of the LAW as such.

I agree that RAPES are heinous crimes which take toll of the physical, mental and social figure of the victim and so do FALSE RAPE CHARGES on MEN. The most important thing to note, while drafting laws, are to protect the INNOCENT than PUNISHMENT of the criminal. So a fair trial is absolutely needed. Easy application of law will invite more misusers. Thats why I repeat a million times to read these...

And your last paragraph is what happens in all cases, not just for RAPE cases.

As far as porn is concerned, you should be happy to see the Indian Law restricting it. So Indian women are protected isnt it? And for MEN, they can still watch and get relieved; thereby less rapes, correct? Or if you dont want anyone to watch porn, you can sue internet providers because they are the one who transmits porn and based on Indian Information Technology Act 2000 transmiting porn is also an offense.
