As someone deeply impacted by the deteriorating safety standards for women in India, I stand today to urge for a significant change in our criminal justice system. Every day, we encounter chilling stories of rape, assault, and violence against women. The lack of stringent laws and enforcement often results in culprits walking free, further fueling the menace. Such incidents have been on a steep rise, with National Crime Records Bureau reporting an appalling 88 rape cases per day in 2019 (source: National Crime Records Bureau, India).

Amidst this, we seek to demand justice, not just for the victims but also for the safety and dignity of every woman in India. It is high time that our country takes a bold stand by mandating the death penalty for convicted rapists.

This law would serve as a deterrent, curbing the rampant instances of such heinous crimes. Moreover, it might restore faith in our justice system by ensuring that justice is served swiftly and efficiently. While acknowledging the complexities surrounding capital punishment, we believe that it is a necessary measure given the current circumstances.

Together, let's make our country safe for all women. Please sign this petition to urge lawmakers to enact a law mandating the death penalty for convicted rapists in India. Let your voice be heard. Let your signature bring us a step closer to justice.
