But women should not feel guilty about the evil that happened to her.They should try to relieve themselves from that state.Though it is difficult it is a nice suggestion.

Yes, you are right nagalakshmi, she should relieve from her bad happend and should start a new life.then stand on her foot so that no will have words to comment her.

At first, I want to congratulate for posting such most important and much discussed topic 'Rape-capital punishment?'
I suggest in one line that Capital Punishment is excellent for the said crime. 'Rape' I feel, is one 'Capital Crime'. It is a direct attack to the modesty of a woman and most important is, it continues with super fast speed. In America alone, as per statistical report of America, in every three seconds a rape took place there. In India,in every three hour there is a rape took place. By implementing capital punishment,the crime rate can be reduced.
The low rape per capita rate in Saudi is mainly due to the capital punishment and strict laws in rape cases in Saudi Arabia. This is all because the Saudi and other South East countries follows the 'Shariaa law'. Proper dressing of women could also preventing them from sexual assault.

Rape is forced, unwanted sexual intercourse. Rape is about power, not sex. Both men and women of any age can be raped

Her the issue is: women lose 'honor' Men do not lose it. This is double standard of society. We have to fight against this concept. A woman raped does not really lose 'honor'. she only suffers physically.

What ever you said is correct gulshan, but society wont agree, they will torture the women who is suffering from.

You are right, Sumit. What is your opinion to eliminate rape occurrence in India. Suggest some bold steps which may surely stop raping.

The existing punishment is okay. The social organizations especially women should be vigilant and see that the culprits are in fact punished.

Secondly, the vehicles, weapons and the things used in committing crime should be confiscated and Passport/ Driving licence/ voting rights/ university degree suspended/ withdrawn. Thus the vehicle used in committing rape be confiscated and the criminal's driving licence canceled. In Delhi, the criminals used cars to drag girls in and raped while driving. Here apart from other punishment, the car should be confiscated and driving licence canceled.

The images of the individuals committing any heinous crime including rape should be placed on web sites and at prominent place in the city of occurrence of such crimes.

But, all these should not going to stop the ongoing crime 'rape',
What concrete steps to take in order to stop at once the said crime, this has to be considered.

Such persons should be hanged in-front of the public. This creates a fear among the citizens.
