Supreme Court Raps Bengal, UP as Child Rape Cases Pile Up - (27 Dec 2019)

CRIMINAL

Supreme Court has come down heavily on Governments of West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh for an "extremely deplorable state of affairs" with regard to trials of child rape cases. The Court, in particular, reproached the UP Government saying "if the State cannot take care of the law and order situation and reduce the number of crimes against children, then it must take the responsibility and ensure that these trials take place as early as possible."
