Nirbhaya

#Nirbhaya

No legal justice can make up for the loss that Nirbhaya’s parents have faced .its indeed sad that in a democratic and vibrant country like India these gruesome act of rape and murder has happened .it shows that in our country there are large number of anti-social elements roaming free .we are proud of Delhi's cultural amity and heritage but nowadays Delhi has become notorious due to this. Nirbhaya's parents have lost their child on whom they have much aspirations.No legal justice can replace their loss and can only provide little solace for their despair.Nirbhaya was gang-raped by five men and a juvenile named Mohammed Afroz. The supreme court has sentenced the other five with the death penalty and
Afroz was sent to juvenile jail and was given only 3 years Imprisonment (Probation Home).now he has completed his sentence and is walking free. As per the latest reports, he is working somewhere in south India as a cook with a different name.As per India's juvenile act he was acquitted.I do agree with the supreme court that juvenile accused should be sent to a different correction department .but in a heinous crime like Nirbhaya rape case he deserves equal punishment as other accused. A boy should become adult at the very young age of sixteen itself but he legally become adult only at the age of eighteen. This factor alone has saved Mohammed Afroz .he has not done this act under the influence of alcohol.he may be a partner in the crime with other accused.but how can we prevent this? Severe punishment can act as a deterrent for criminals and rapists. stringent measures should be taken to prevent these crimes. Girls have every right to dress according to their fancies but that does not mean they should be molested. In a democratic and largely populated country like ours, security is a big issue for our authorities. Government is bound to protect every Individual but they alone cannot provide adequate security measures to all. In this scenario MORAL POLICING
has become relevant .political parties and social organizations can give a helping hand to police in tackling this issue.in major cities, surveillance is a vexing problem. There will be anti-social elements and they should be dealt with severely. Capital punishment can always act as a deterrent to these crimes against women. but still, there are incidents of rape and murder.A collective effort by all law-abiding citizens can prevent these crimes.
