Announcements Galore, Now For Some Action!

Home Minister R.  R. Patil Maharashtra government has acquired the habit of taking course to law books whenever the situation seems to go out of control. Giving a classic example of this, the state government has recommended to central government for more punishment for crimes against women.

Home Minister R. R. Patil said in Legislative Council,

"We would send a proposal to the Centre to increase punishment to perpetrators of crime against women and strengthen the laws.

The minister also announced to set up a Women Security Committee comprising women doctors, lawyers, professors and NGO representatives.

Shiv Sena MLC Neelam Gorhe had raised the issue of rise in number of crime cases against women in the state. While Gorhe claimed that

The crime rate against women has gone up by 5.4 per cent in Pune region alone and the government should address the issue.
Patil claimed something otherwise. He said that the crime rate in the state has come down in the last three years.

 

With the controversies over shielding the criminals making it to headlines, it would be better for Patil to reign in the culprits. But as he is accustomed to, he will be more bent on making announcements which hardly can come into reality. For the time being, game of statistics is on while people are scared in the city as well as state.
