Sir,
“When a woman walks in the streets in the mid night, then only it means that we achieved full independence to our country.” Mahatma Gandhi
Now-a-days rape has become the fastest growing, most under-reported, and least punished crime in our country. Every day in every newspaper, the news of rapes, abductions, kidnappings, raggings, suicides due to rapes and raggings are published. Women, irrespective of their age, from two years child to eighty years age, are subjected to rape. A 2017 report by Global Peace Index had claimed India to be the fourth most dangerous country for women travellers. We bow our head in shame saying that today its very difficult for a girl to walk on the road not to talk about mid night even in daylight and to go to school even accompanying by his father or mother or sister. 80 percent girls are facing eve-teasing activities everyday. 75 percent rape victims are stigmatize, they feel ashamed to share the incident with anyone and silently bear all they face. After every rape incident many protests and a lot of promises are made to apprehend and punish the accused, the legislatures bring new Acts and make amendments to the old laws but of no use. Considering the law a kid’s play rapists are increasing day by day and commiting the crime publicly as they have no fear of being punished.There is no doubt to say “Rape is the worst sexual abuse against women”. It is very heinous and brutal act. An animal is better than a rapist because the male animals do sex after accepting the female animal. To remove this crime from the roots there is only one solution : hang the rapist.
