When I see the recent past to evaluate which direction my country is going, I, and any body else too, can note the significant rise in crime against women.
The present day economic and life situations force many ladies to leave home at abnormal hours. The more they are out in the lonely hours and place more they are prone to these crimes.
The surge in all these crime also point to many other reasons, but the foremost reason in my understanding is the delayed justice. Criminals know that there are so many loop holes in the present day justice system, that they can certainly delay the justice if not avoid. The advocates also play an equal part in delaying the justice through various tactics. Even in the cases where the culprit is evident or there are witness to the case the lawyers can easily accept these criminals as there clients and do there best effort, and use their all law intelligence to free the client from the claws of law.
Now the question: is there any morality left in the Lawyers? if not why they are allowed to misuse there knowledge? What the governing council does to prevent this?
Should the common public be a mere spectator of all these? No. Obviously not. First thing that must be understood in the Indian context is that we need to make our own laws and system. We can not live long on the borrowed things. The British philosophy of let go hundred of criminals but not punish any innocent should be thoroughly reviewed. I think is should be the other way around. No criminal should be able to skip even if you unknowingly punish hundred innocent. This will create the fear of justice in criminals and will prevent them to commit any crime.
Also there should be a time limit set for the conviction. No court should allow the trial of more than three months. The Maximum time for a case at supreme court should be one year. There might be the cases where the verdict may be wrong but as I said there will to too many less cases due to the fear of Law.
The responsibility also lies with the general public. They must ask there representative what are they doing to save the interest of general public. Mind it that all these elected persons are just your representative. The can not and should not make any decision just because they like, They must observe the sentiment of the public and must consult the public.
People must also understand that politics is that colour of life that effects every individual and every colour of life. So never avoid the politics, be a part of it. Be a guide of it, be a guiding force of the politics.
Jai Hind
