Yes there should be stricter laws. Though we all know that the laws are all fallacy. In spite of many laws starting from female infanticide to burning girls for dowry little we can achieved to curb out these evils from the society. Still the practices are very much prevailing not only in poverty ridden poor section but even in the rich & privileged section of the society. Of course many are using the loopholes to do crime or harass the male counterpart for the crime they might not have performed. Obviously these are just dew drops in the vast sea of crime against women or girls happened everyday. Though we practically live in a lawless land but I'll advocate a much stricter law otherwise people who loves to stay in their lowest potential all the time will engage in the crimes and they will remain Scot free as there is no law to counteract.

Yes we have them for 50+yrs .. what's the use? incompatible to the present.. everyone knows to find loop holes.. did ever a rich man / politician got punished?? u can count numbers even if there..
Dear all who says no to such law.. saying we have laws and implementation is weak.. We have those laws for 50+yrs and nothing happened.. entire LAWs are for 1950s 1960s now its 2011 it must be revised.. for our companies we revise policies every year for betterment.. WHY NOT FOR NATION?
Crime against girls and women are happening more in a State where a "WOMAN" is the CM. If the law tightens the noose of those who is in the helm of affairs, such heinous acts will be curbed. Its the free-handedness of such people who are patronised by the powerful politicians. No law-abiding citizen would like to endanger his life for a 'momentous pleasure'! The Apex Court, suo motu, should take a very strong step to penalise those who are in the helm of affairs, bureaucrats, police officers, legislators and councillors, if such incidents have become regular in a State! If the Heads of States and those who are providing cover to such hooligans are severely punished, then such rate of crime will drastically come down! By

I think there are many crimes against women which are today. These are due to changing mentality of peoples due to influence of movies and peoples negligence towards real Indian culture
I agree with swapna, but there are certain points which comes in my mind - 1 - Idea given by Mr sohaib will firstly harm the essence of humanity secondly (as swapna said) they will continue doing it as they are not aware of the consequences as they are mentally ill (so they are committing such crimes),
2 - here i also feel that in India it majorly gets motivation because of westernization, cultural change in the society, why we are not talking about the change in culture amongst us, why we are not discussing about the western outfits becoming a normal habit majorly in metro cities, the gap (financial) is increasing, for eg - a cab driver who hardly gets 6000-8000 per month drives a girl wearing western clothes (exposed out of the normal Indian cultural dressing limits) in middle of the night will definitely get tend to attract towards that female, now again it is upto his own ethics or mind which will make him go with a choice (positive or negative), so it is just not a single reason, we should just not discuss about the consequences or laws to stop it, but also the inside story where that problem is actually taking birth, Thanks, (no personnel grudges over my comments, s they are just for sharing knowledge)
Yes, Swapna, strict laws could damper the spirit of culprits.The exemplary punishment will definitely bring down the incidences.The existing laws deals with delinquents ,but it lacks teeth to nip the bully.
Yes, of course. There is such a law which we must implement, but upon hearing that law people become biased just because Islam speaks about that law and that law is Stoning to death. The rapist should be stoned to death in front of everyone so that those who are willing or even thinking of committing such a heinous crime may abstain from it. By

Everyday not at least one news paper in India is free from sexual violence against women & girls. Here is the latest.. Indians should fear to send our women out every moment or what? then why democracy and freedom? Please share your thoughts
The Law and order for such type of crime against women is enough strict. We need not to add on fruthur. If you remember that Old case of Culcutta where criminal had raped and murdered inocent girl and punished hang till death. Is it resuleted decrease level of crim against women? No. In mojority of case victim suffured from her near and dear one. The rate of such type of crime against women are more in those state where law and order are not at place. If the current law and order followed stricticly, will help to reduces crime aginst women. By

There is an saying about rule :" Rules are for fools."So what's the use of another law,just to breached in another way.As a solution these problem ,we should instill in people's mind respect for opposite gender in particular and towards the mankind in general.To summarize, Solution is moral and not legal.

Only awkward Person bring a debate to personnel level , but since u have started let me ask u , suppose someone has raped ur Sister or daughter , and u want him to be killed , now after this the family of the one killed will want u to be killed , where will it stop ? Personnel grief or feeling is not a decisive factor in modern judiciary , it might have been in times and places where Sharia was formulated , that is why we see Sharia law advocates , Hands should be chopped of for stealing , These are un human and barbaric punishments , no more applicable to society ,
Is chopping of Hand is equal punishment for Thief ?
Or taking someones life equal punishment for Rape ? Few will Agree ,
Sharia laws are not suited for Human society ,
these are some strange outcomes of implementing Islamik laws : -
we dont need more laws to complicate our already over burdened judicial system. Rather we need stricter implementation. Even if we do bring in more laws, what is the guarantee that they will not be misused. Education is the panacea for all evils. First lets focus our efforts on achieving 100% literacy, then such crimes will automatically come down. I know many people will claim that crimes agaisnt girls and women still happen in literate countries but on a closer analysis you will realise that these crimes are not comitted by literate people. We do not want repeat of the Oliver Khan story wherein the maid abused her position and cried foul over something that hadnt happened. Who will restore the lost honour of Oliver Khan or closer home people like Shiny Ahuja. Celebrity baiting is one of the consequences of having to many laws. By

NO NO NO NO NEVER.............. Already the law and order are too much favorable to the ladies and there is practically and logically no need for such. If this happens then the males will have to repent on their step of hitting own foot with axes. NO need of liberalizing them further, so far we have witnessed a tremendous increase in false rape and molestation allegations, the women are using unethical advantage of this present situation I am not sure what will happen after more strictness.

Laws are there but remains in the law books only and not applied. In fact dirty politics and corrupt politicians are intervening in all the cases there involvement makes the law weak and its not working. We must unite and stand against these corrupt politicians so that they should bow in front of the public power. By

I believe there is adequate protection by law to woman. The machinery that delivers goods is not effective. Because, it's interpretation & circumstantial evidence divert the case. And subsequently, the guilty gets scot-free. So, we can say that there is a scope for loop-holes. We need to plug it as much as possible in such cases. We ,also ,need to deliver the punishment at the earliest so that, the offender realize it. People will also get alerted by the verdicts.
Implementation of these in true spirit matters much more than ,just, framing few more additional sections. It makes law book volumenous.
In case strick law formed like in the other countries, misuse by ladies/girls will also increase. There are sufficient laws but due lack of evidences culpript escaped from the cluch of implementing authorities. Further more moral implementing authorities may also be tightened. Already allegation levelled by femal there are no need further evidences. Criminal in safe guard produce evidences By

Hey Buddy, there are more than required laws that safeguard women. what we need now is laws that are not gender biased. You think men are any less suffering from crime against them from women. check the misuse of 498A, its rampant and ever increasing and has already become a cause for increasing divorce rate in India. We desperately need laws that do not differentiate between men and women and give harsh and equal punishment to those who err. By
