The country's top court upheld the death penalty to three rapists in the case of gang rape and murder of a 23-year-old paramedic student on December 16, 2012 in New Delhi. The student, whose real name cannot be revealed under Indian law, is referred to as 'Nirbhaya' meaning fearless. Her brutal death led to global outrage and new anti-rape laws in India.
India has become one of the most unsafe nations for women and Madhya Pradesh is gaining a dubious reputation of being a leading state when it comes to the incidents of rape. The latest Mandsaur rape case has set the nation on fire.
With increasing rape case, we need to rethink to which direction our society is going, how our children are being raised and how we can educate our people better towards finer cultural ethos that many western societies have done. More than a political, religious or law and order problem, it is a problem of having a fractured and confused society that we need to address urgently.
Now, the question arises – when will the culprits of such heinous crime be hanged?
