Abstract | Crimes against women are on the rise in India. Women are victims of matrimonial cruelties, trafficking, rape, stalking, voyeurism, kidnapping, etc. These various factors are contributory towards the increase in offenses against women. Various departments like the Police, lawmakers, the judiciary, national human rights institutions have shouldered the responsibility to protect women against crimes but despite it, the situation does not seem developed. Though it is considered that with the coming of the 21st century, women have become empowered. However, they are still victims and face exploitation both in public and private spaces. The SDG focuses on preventing violence against women by 2030. The research delves into various types of crimes, including domestic violence, sexual harassment, and human trafficking, providing a comprehensive overview of the current situation and its evolution over time. The study aims to identify patterns, underlying factors, and possible solutions to mitigate this growing issue. The present paper aims to discuss some common causes of crimes against women. The study further aims to throw light on major shortcomings in some of the existing women-related laws. The last part of the paper contains suggestions to counter increasing offenses against women in India. |
