Existing laws can  protect women. But a  broken criminal justice system leads to impunity for criminals and lack of fear of law.

Law enforcement does not promote deterrence.

Sociologists feel that sexual repression leads to sexual aggression. Others feel that the system of education does not help to inculcate moral values in the youth.

The transitional society in India promotes arrogance of power and arrogance of wealth and a trigger-happy upper class.
