These issues will never stop as far as capital punishment is sanctioned. I could not understand why our central Govt is not willing to pass a strong bill on this issue whereas it is busy in passing unwanted and unnec3essry bills. For this Govt death of females due to rape is not important whereas triple talq is more important to them to appease 0.001 percent of Muslim women who are eloped and paid by sangh parivar leaders.
