Downloads
Abstract
Rape is considered as the most heinous offense against women in Indian Criminal Law. Sexual Assault in various forms has been recognized as a crime by almost all religions and cultures throughout recorded history. It is a crime against the basic Human Rights of a human being and the most common crime against women in India. In India, “rape laws’’ began with the ratification of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. There have been successive amendments, and the main issue of focus remained the definition of rape which has been recently broadened to include a wide range of sexual activities which include minor rape, marital rape, sexual harassment at workplaces, custodial rape, etc. However, the problem lies in the implementation of these laws as justice to the victim is always delayed. This research paper aims to deal with the causes of rape cases in India and why rape cases in India are still increasing. And why India is constantly failing to control rape cases. This paper also gives some suggestions that if followed India can be able to control sexual assault cases.
