Nyaay Shastra deposited Indian Laws Relating to Rape: A Critical Analysis on Humanities Commons 2 years, 3 months ago
Rape is one type of illegal sexual relationship that is not only illegal but also it is without the consent of the woman. It is the only crime, where the victim is ostracized socially, degraded morally, and achieves a dark spot on her dignity and character instead of getting sympathy from society. In the case of Rafiq v. State of U.P., Justice Krishna Iyer rightly said, “When a woman is ravished what is inflicted is not merely physical injury, but the deep sense of some deathless shame. Judicial response to human rights cannot be blunted by legal bigotry.”
