ANTI-RAPE BILL IS INSUFFICIENT
•MARITAL RAPE IS STILL LEGAL.
•LAWS PROTECT ONLY WOMEN FROM
RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT AND NOT
THE TRANSGENDER PEOPLE IS A MAJOR
FAILURE.
•THE STATE AND CENTRAL LEGISLATURE
POLITICIANS ACCUSED OF CRIME MAY
REMAIN IN OFFICE AND BENEFIT FROM
THE SLOW JUSTICE SYSTEM UNTIL
CONVICTED.
