The gang-rape of a student in Delhi caused an uproar throughout India against increasing sexual crimes and crimes against women.
There was rioting in Delhi for many days by young people asking the government to take action against the rapists and to see that India is made safe for women.
A commission of inquiry has been appointed to go into the incident and to suggest measures to ensure safety of women and to deal with crimes against women.
How safe are women in India?
Why are sexual crimes on the increase?
What can be done to enforce the law to safeguard the lives and dignity of women?
Why do such incidents happen?
Very many questions that need to be answered.
This forum could help to collate news and views to help policy makers and administrators.
This is also intended to create wide awareness of the problem of crimes against women in India.
