Delhi Gang Rape or Rape of Goodness

Bitter truth is that rape of girl is taking place every day in every town and every village of the country. Hardly one or two percent of such ugly incidents come to light .Victim of such assault on woman seldom prefer lodging a complain to police station.

Even if someone dares to do so , Police officials in most of such cases avoid accepting FIR from the victim. If somehow or the other , either under pressure of powerful politicians associated with victim or under the pressure  of mob , if police officials are constrained to  accept lodgement of  FIR in Thana , they seldom act  upon it . Or else, in most of the cases, police do not act seriously to frame full proof charges sheet and hence willfully present the same in court of law casually so that the guilty is acquitted sooner or the later. They seldom act in a way to ensure punishment to the guilty. Police officials decides the fate of such heinous crimes mostly either under pressure of musclemen or under the temptation of heavy bribe from the family of rapist.

If one of many thousand cases case is filed in court of law, the team of advocates comes into action to save the rapist in  greed  of heavy monetary gain in form of fees . It is advocates who manage magistrates, police officials and finally the judges to reject the case of the victim or to keep the same in abeyance for ever. They try to postpone the hearing on flimsy ground for years and decades. 

One may accept it or not , the bitter truth is that actual rapist is never punished by the corrupt system Indian has .Therefore it is not the paucity of act or legal provisions to deal with rapist , it is not legal constraints, it is not the issue that rapist be hanged or not, it is always the corrupt nature and malicious intention judges, that of executive body and that of enforcing agencies who distorts the provisions of law and who safeguard the interest of the rapist , not the victim and who willfully delay the justice, delay the process of punishment and indirectly help the rapist and frustrate the victim..

Delhi gang rape row: Justice delivery can be expedited if government arms stop suing each other

The government is deservedly on the back foot for its ham-handed handling of public outrage against the gang-rape of a young paramedic in the capital.

That must not take attention away from the immediate need to improve law and order, in particular the safety of women in India. A key element of any such effort must be to fast-track our justice delivery system.

It is no secret that our dismal record - more than three crore cases pending before High Courts and subordinate courts - is one of the main reasons why cases, including criminal charges, drag on for years and often end without a conviction.

The consequence? A rise in the crime rate. When criminals know they can get away with murder (no pun intended), there is no reason for them to fear the hand of the law.

So, how can we expedite the delivery of justice? Suggestions range from filling up vacancies at all levels in the judiciary to video-recording court proceedings, to setting an outer time limit for completion of hearings and so on.

While each of these deserves to be pursued, a relatively easy way to reduce delays, one entirely within the government's domain, is to curb litigation between various arms of government.

Today, the government is a litigant in about 70% of pending cases. Around 60% of these are between central and state governments, local authorities and public sector undertakings.

A simple way to reduce pendency in courts would be for different arms of government to resolve their disputes through alternate channels like arbitration.

The 2010 National Litigation Policy suggests as much. It urges that the government, government bodies and undertakings become responsible litigants and not resort to litigation for its own sake. This will reduce the cost to the exchequer (lawyers, even those who take governments briefs, don't come cheap). It will also reduces wastage of courts' time.

Delhi gang rape row: Policing in Delhi needs an overhaul, start by firing the police chief

The brutal rape and violence on a 23-year old woman on the evening of December 16 revealed the lax standards of policing in Delhi.

Events thereafter indicate that the police force is incompetent, brutal, venal and untruthful. A magistrate questioning the rape victim was allegedly pressured by the cops to alter the line of queries according to police diktat.

When this was revealed, the questioning had to be done once more, despite the fact that the victim is critically unwell. Peaceful protests from Monday, December 17, by people anguished by the crime, did not elicit any sympathy from the establishment.

On Saturday, December 22, the police inexplicably allowed the protestors to march up Raisina Hill, which houses India's most sensitive ministries and the president's estate.

Equally inexplicably, the cops suddenly unleashed beatings, lathi charges, tear gas shells and water cannon bursts on what was a peaceful crowd. The violence was justified by saying that terrorists could have sneaked in with the protestors.

If so, why did the cops allow the assembly at the Hill? Later, police sealed all approaches to India Gate, restricted public transport and caused enormous problems for people just trying to make a living. The state of siege continues.

The police insisted that constable Subhash Tomar was killed by protestors and arrested eight alleged 'perpetrators.' Now that claim, too, is being demolished: two witnesses who saw him collapse, tried to revive him and took him to hospital say he had a cardiac arrest and was not injured by stone pelters.

Nor had he been kicked and stomped on, as the police claimed. Hospital officials also say there were no major injuries on Tomar. If this is true, then it is clear that the cops are trying to frame the eight people it has arrested.

At the centre of this web of brutality and deceit is Neeraj Kumar, the commissioner of Delhi Police. He must be sacked immediately.

After that, the management of Delhi Police must be handed over to the elected state government, as is the case in all other states. The effete and inept lieutenant governor Tejinder Khanna, who heads the police force on behalf of the central government, should also be given marching orders.
