520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc. | Bride-burning, rape, female infantcide, sati, wife-beating, prostitution, kidnapping, abduction, offence against marriage... the list of crime against women seem never ending yet it is increasing at an alarming rate . The variety and dimensions of these crimes have shown the human ingenuity to commit crimes, but for some strange reason, they have remained reduced to statistics. Cold, brutal, statistics which pile up in the morgues called Government offices, welfare homes and court-rooms, confirming our worst fears that the single largest minority of this country is being viciously battered into submission.<br/>This book aims to make an indepth study of the various crimes which are comitted against women in India. The book tries to eradicate the ignorance amongst women about the law which have been enacted in India to prevent them from being exploited. The book also tries to take a psychological approach to the various crimes which are committed against women by analysing the reasons as to why these crimes are committed and trying to provide a solution to this burning problem. |
