How many of our lawmakers have rape

Respect for women’s honour has never been our priority. I daresay we might end up with many empty seats in our state legislatures and Parliament. Vijaypat SinghaniaMumbai.In your editorial, Zero tolerance to stop sexual attacks (March 19), you say "only concerted action by all sections of society can spread the message of zero tolerance".Why make laws that will never be implemented, in fact cannot be implemented Create conditions where such laws become superfluous. Let’s have the guts to say no criminals will be allowed to become our lawmakers. Are you advocating that the public should take law in its own hands and deal with the culprits I am not against it, but the law does not permit it.
How many of our lawmakers have rape and murder cases on them It’s sad that just one such case became an issue. Swift and severe punishment to the perpetrators of crime can become the motivators for a more civilised society.Criminality and lack of civility have been part of empty vegetarian capsules our national culture and heritage for hundreds of years. Bravo India Shining!You want a civilised democracy, fine. And it’s even sadder that Delhi has now been internationally recognised.
