Rape is the fourth most common crime
against women in India.[1][2] According to the
National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) 2013
annual report, 24,923 rape cases were
reported across India in 2012.[3] Out of
these, 24,470 were committed by someone
known to the victim (98% of the cases).[4]
India has been characterised as one of the
"countries with the lowest per capita rates
of rape".[5][6] Many rapes go unreported in
various countries including India.[7][8] In
India, consensual sex given on the false
promise of marriage constitutes rape.[9] The
willingness to report the rape has increased
in recent years, after several incidents of
rape received widespread media attention
and triggered public protest.[10][11][12][13][14]
This led the Government of India to reform
its penal code for crimes of rape and sexual
assault.[15]
According to NCRB 2015 statistics, Madhya
Pradesh has the highest raw number of rape
reports among Indian states,[16] while
Jodhpur in Rajasthan has the highest per
capita rate of rape reports in cities followed
by Delhi, the capital city.[17]

Definition in Indian Penal Code
Annual rape and all forms of sexual assaults
per 100,000 people, for India compared to
select nations[18][19]
Before 3 February 2013, Section 375 of the
Indian Penal Code defined rape as:[20]
§375. Rape. A man is said to commit "rape"
who, except case hereinafter excepted, has
sexual intercourse[21] with a woman in
circumstances falling under any of the six
following descriptions:-
Firstly. –– Against her will.
Secondly. –– Without her consent.
Thirdly. –– With her consent, when her
consent has been obtained by putting her or
any person in whom she is interested, in
fear of death or of hurt.
Fourthly. –– With her consent, when the man
knows that he is not her husband, and that
her consent is given because she believes
that he is another man to whom she is or
believes herself to be lawfully married.
Fifthly. –– With her consent, when, at the
time of giving such consent, by reason of
unsoundness of mind or intoxication or the
administration by him personally or through
another of any stupefying or unwholesome
substance, she is unable to understand the
nature and consequences of that to which
she gives consent.
Sixthly. –– With or without her consent,
when she is under sixteen[22] years of age.
Explanation. –– Penetration is sufficient to
constitute the sexual intercourse necessary
to the offence of rape.
Exception. –– Sexual intercourse by a man
with his own wife, the wife not being under
fifteen years of age, is not rape.
The above definition excluded marital rape,
same sex crimes and considered all sex with
a minor below the age of sixteen as rape.
After 3 February 2013, the definition was
revised through the Criminal Law
(Amendment) Act 2013, which also raised
the legal age of minor to eighteen.[23]
§375. A man is said to commit "rape" if he:––
(a) penetrates his penis, to any extent, into
the vagina, mouth, urethra or anus of a
woman or makes her to do so with him or
any other person; or (b) inserts, to any
extent, any object or a part of the body, not
being the penis, into the vagina, the urethra
or anus of a woman or makes her to do so
with him or any other person; or (c)
manipulates any part of the body of a
woman so as to cause penetration into the
vagina, urethra, anus or any part of body of
such woman or makes her to do so with him
or any other person; or (d) applies his mouth
to the vagina, anus, urethra of a woman or
makes her to do so with him or any other
person, under the circumstances falling
under any of the following seven
descriptions:
Firstly. –– Against her will.
Secondly. –– Without her consent.
Thirdly. –– With her consent, when her
consent has been obtained by putting her or
any person in whom she is interested, in
fear of death or of hurt.
Fourthly. –– With her consent, when the man
knows that he is not her husband and that
her consent is given because she believes
that he is another man to whom she is or
believes herself to be lawfully married.
Fifthly. –– With her consent when, at the
time of giving such consent, by reason of
unsoundness of mind or intoxication or the
administration by him personally or through
another of any stupefying or unwholesome
Substance, she is unable to understand the
nature and consequences of that to which
she gives consent.
Sixthly. –– With or without her consent,
when she is under eighteen years of age.
Seventhly. –– When she is unable to
communicate consent.
Explanation 1. –– For the purposes of this
section, "vagina" shall also include labia
majora.
Explanation 2. –– Consent means an
unequivocal voluntary agreement when the
woman by words, gestures or any form of
verbal or non-verbal communication,
communicates willingness to participate in
the specific sexual act;
Provided that a woman who does not
physically resist to the act of penetration
shall not by the reason only of that fact, be
regarded as consenting to the sexual
activity. Exceptions –– 1. A medical
procedure or intervention shall not
constitute rape; 2. Sexual intercourse or
sexual acts by a man with his own wife, the
wife not being under fifteen years of age, is
not rape.
Even after the 2013 reform, marital rape
when the wife and husband live together
continued not to be a crime in India. Article
376B of the 2013 law made forced sexual
intercourse by a man with his wife – if she is
living separately – a crime, whether under a
decree of separation or otherwise,
punishable with at least a 2-year prison
term.[15] Forced sex by a man on his wife
may also be considered a prosecutable
domestic violence under other sections of
Indian Penal code, such as Section 498(A) as
well as the Protection of Women from
Domestic Violence Act 2005.[24] The crime of
sexual assault on a child, that is anyone
below the age of eighteen, is further
outlined and mandatory punishments
described in The Protection of Children from
Sexual Offences Act 2012.[25]
All sexual acts between the members of the
same sex, consensual or forced, was
previously a crime under Section 377 of
Indian penal code, after the 2013 Criminal
Law reform, with punishment the same as
that of rape[26] but it was later overturned in
a landmark judgement of the Supreme Court
on 6 September 2018 which stated all
consensual sexual acts between adults who
have met the age of consent are not
violative of Section 377, hence
decriminalizing gay sex in India.[27][28]
Rape statistics

Reported Rape rates per 100,000 population

2010-2012.
Rape of minors
See also: Child sexual abuse laws in India
Using a small sample survey, Human Rights
Watch projects more than 7,200 minors –
1.6 in 100,000 minors – are raped each year
in India. Among these, victims who do report
the assaults are alleged to suffer
mistreatment and humiliation from the
police.[29] Minor girls are trafficked into
prostitution in India, thus rape of minors
conflates into a lifetime of suffering.[30] Of
the countries studied by Maplecroft on sex
trafficking and crime against minors, India
was ranked 7th worst.[30]
Estimates of unreported rapes
Most rapes go unreported because the rape
victims fear retaliation and humiliation, both
in India and throughout the world.[31] Indian
parliamentarians have stated that the rape
problem in India is being underestimated
because many cases are not reported, even
though more victims are increasingly
coming out and reporting rape and sexual
assaults.[32]
Few states in India have tried to estimate or
survey unreported cases sexual assault. The
estimates for unreported rapes in India vary
widely. The National Crime Records Bureau
report of 2006 mentions that about 71%
rape crimes go unreported.[33] Marital rape is
not a criminal act in India[34] though sexual
intercourse with wife aged between 15 and
18 years is considered as rape.[35] Madiha
Kark estimates 54% of rape crimes are
unreported.[36] A UN study of 57 countries
estimates just 11% of rape and sexual
assault cases worldwide are ever reported.
[37]
Convictions

Verdicts in Delhi Rape Cases, 2013[38]

The conviction rate for rapists has fallen at a
steep rate over the past 40 years. Out of all
the rape trials in India, only one out of four
leads to a conviction.[39] The conviction rate
for rape cases in India was 44.3 percent in
1973, 37.7 percent in 1983, 26.9 percent in
2009, 26.6 percent in 2010, 26.4 percent in
2011,[40] 24.2% in 2012 and 27.1% in 2013.

India's conviction rate is higher than
developed countries, such as the United
Kingdom, which recorded a conviction rate
of 7% in 2011-12. The conviction rate as low
as 10% in Sweden and 25% in France.[39]
Notable incidents

People silently marching to protest with

candlelight at Salt Lake City in Kolkata after
the female victim's death on 29 December
2012
People in Bangalore protesting outside
Bangalore Town Hall on 30 December 2012
demanding justice for the 23-year-old
student who was gang-raped in Delhi on 16
December 2012
The gang rape of a 23-year-old student on a
public bus, on 16 December 2012, sparked
large protests across the capital Delhi.[13]
She was with a male friend who was
severely beaten with an iron rod during the
incident.[41] This same rod was used to
penetrate her so severely that the victim's
intestines had to be surgically removed,
before her death thirteen days after the
attack.[42]
The following day, there was an uproar in
the Indian parliament over the incident. MPs
in both houses had set aside their regular
business to discuss the case and demanded
strict punishment for those who carried out
the attack. The Leader of the Opposition in
the Lok Sabha, Sushma Swaraj, demanded
that "the rapists should be hanged".[43]
Thousands of people, mostly young,
participated in a massive demonstration on
22 December in protest.[44] Police arrested
six men suspected of rape.[45]
In August 2013, a 22-year-old
photojournalist, who was interning with an
English-language magazine in Mumbai, was
gang-raped by five persons, including a
juvenile, when she had gone to the deserted
Shakti Mills compound, near Mahalaxmi in
South Mumbai, with a male colleague on an
assignment. This caused protests
throughout the country since Mumbai with
its very active nightlife was previously
considered a safe haven for women. The city
sessions court found the accused guilty and
sentenced death penalty to the three repeat
offenders in the Shakti Mills gang rape case,
making them the first in the country to get
the death sentence stipulated under the
newly enacted Section 376E of the Indian
Penal Code.[46]
On 14 March 2015, a 71-year-old nun was
allegedly gang-raped in Ranaghat, West
Bengal by intruders at Convent of Jesus and
Mary.[47] The six intruders were recorded on
CCTV during their crime of ransacking the
chapel, destroying religious items, looting
cash and the gang rape. Six men were
arrested and charged with the crime by 1
April 2015, and identified to be Bangladeshi
Muslims.[48]
On 29 March 2016, the corpse of Delta
Meghwal, a 17 year old Dalit girl, was found
in her hostel's water tank. Following the
registration of the police case the hostel
warden, physical education teacher and
principal were arrested by Bikaner police
and kept under judicial custody.[49] The State
eventually acceded to a CBI inquiry after the
issue became politicised.[50]
On 17 January 2018, Asifa, an 8-year old
minor girl, was raped and murdered in
Rasana village near Kathua in Jammu and
Kashmir. The incident made national news
when charges were filed against eight men
in April 2018. The arrests of the accused led
to protests from groups, one of which was
attended by two ministers from the
Bharatiya Janata Party, both of whom have
now resigned. The rape and murder, as well
as the support the accused received,
sparked widespread outrage.[51][52][53]
The Unnao rape case saw an allegation that
lawmaker Kuldeep Singh Sengar had raped
a 17-year old girl in 2017.[54][55] In 2018, the
alleged victim's father was jailed under the
Arms Act, and died in prison after being
allegedly beaten up by Sengar's brother and
several others.[56] Also in 2018, a witness to
the alleged assault, Yunus, died and was
immediately buried by his family with no
autopsy and no communication to police or
investigators. Yunus' wife and family said
Yunus had been ill and died a natural death.
[57]
The uncle of the alleged victim was
arrested and jailed in 2018 due to an 18
year old gun-firing case.[58] In 2019, a truck
with blackened license plates hit the car in
which the alleged victim and others were
riding in. As a result, the victim's paternal
and maternal aunts were killed. The alleged
victim and her lawyer were critically injured.
The police officers assigned to provide
security for the alleged victim were not
present, with the explanation that there was
no space in the car in which the alleged
victim was travelling in.[56]
Jammu and Kashmir
There have been allegations of rape and
mass rape in Jammu and Kashmir. Reports
have shown that rape has been carried out
by both Indian armed forces and Islamist
militant groups.[59][60]
The rapes by Islamic militants have been
reported since the Indo-Pakistani War of
1947. On 22 October 1947, Pashtun
militants invaded Baramulla in a Pakistan
army truck, and raped women including
European nuns.[61] In March 1990, Mrs. M. N.
Paul, the wife of a BSF inspector was
kidnapped, tortured and gang-raped for
many days. Then her body with broken
limbs was abandoned on a road.[62]
The International Commission of Jurists have
stated that though the attacks had not been
proven beyond a doubt, there was credible
evidence that it had happened.[63] In 2011,
the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC)
asked for the reopening of the case.[64]
Militant organisations such as Hizb-ul-
Mujahideen, Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen and
Harkat ul-Ansar have been accused of
carrying out rapes.[59] The Jammu Kashmir
Liberation Front has been accused of ethnic
cleansing of using murder, arson, and rape
as a weapon of war to drive out hundreds of
thousands of Hindu Kashmiri Pandits from
the region.[65][66] Following the rise of rapes
by the Indian armed forces and militants,
HRW has submitted that the victims of raper
suffer ostracism and there is a "code of
silence and fear" that prevents people from
reporting such abuse. According to the
HRW, the investigation of case of rape by
Indian forces and militants is difficult
because many Kashmiris are reluctant to
discuss it for the fear of violent reprisals.[67]
Northeast India
Human rights groups allege that the Indian
armed forces under the protection of the
Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act, 1958
have carried out a large amount of rapes in
the Nagaland, Assam and Manipur
provinces.[68] Karlsson writes that there are
reports that much of the violence against
civilians, including sexual assault, is inflicted
by the rebel groups and armed criminal
gangs in the region.[68]
Uttar Pradesh
There is wide discrepancy among reports of
rape and sexual assault. For example,
according to the People's Union for Civil
Liberties (PUCL), the majority of those
assaulted in 2007 were poor women from
remote areas and Dalits. SR Darapuri of the
PUCL alleged, "I analysed the rape figures
for 2007 and I found that 90% of victims
were Dalits and 85% of Dalit rape victims
were underage girls."[69] Darapuri allegations
do not match with the data compiled by
National Crime Records Bureau of India,
which found 6.7% of rape and sexual assault
victims were Dalits in 2007, where nearly
16% of Indian population is classified as
Dalit.[70] There were 391 cases of rape of
Dalit victims reported in Uttar Pradesh in
2013 or about 1 per 100,000 Dalits in the
state of about 200 million people (21% of
which is classified as Dalit).[71]
During riots
In recent years, variety of rapes have taken
place during the communal riots. During the
post 2002 Godhra train burning, in the
certain parts of Gujarat, rape was carried
out by rioters.[72] Thirteen rape and assault
cases were reported during the 2013
Muzaffarnagar riots.[4]
The partition of India
Main article: Rape during the partition of
India
During the partition of India, some 100,000
women claimed to have been kidnapped
and raped.[73][74]
Disputed rape cases
Potential abuse concerns
In April 2013, Judge Virender Bhat has
suggested that the legal proposition of
relying upon the sole attestation of the
victim became "an easy weapon" to
incriminate anyone in rape case.[75] Justice
Kailash Ghambhir of the Delhi High Court
stated that penal provisions for rape are
often being misused by women as a
"weapon for vengeance and vendetta" to
harass and blackmail their male friends by
filing false cases to extort money and to
force them get married.[76] Saamna,
mouthpiece of Shiv Sena in an editorial
noted while supporting the Deputy Inspector
General Of Police in Mumbai in an alleged
rape complaint that it has become "a
fashion to create sensation by charging
someone for rape and molestation"[77] while
Shonee Kapoor, founder of Sahodar Men's
Right Group, demanded that the name of
the accused should not be made public till
conviction.[78]
In 2014, as per a report submitted by Delhi
Commission for women 53% of reported
rapes in 2012-13 were found to be 'false'.
This report considered the cases that were
dropped before going to trial as false, and
failed to differentiate between the cases
dropped due to coercion and cases where it
was clear that women were lying.[79]
The Hindu journalist, Rukmini Shrinivasan,
investigated the cases further by only
considering the cases that went to full trial.
Out of 460 such cases in Delhi district courts
in 2013 only 2% (12) were found to be
committed by strangers. 41% (189) of these
cases were filed by parents to criminalize
and end consented sexual relationships,
24% (109) were filed under 'breach of
promise to marry' and 30% (141) were
found to be committed by acquaintances
and relatives.[38]
Notable cases
In 1991, the 4 Rajputana Rifles unit are
alleged to have entered the village of Kunan
Poshpora and raped between 30 and 100
women aged between 13 and 70.[80][81] The
Indian government carried out three
inquiries into the allegations and concluded
that it had been a hoax.[82]
In May 2014 two girls aged 14 and 16 were
allegedly gang raped and murdered in the
northern state of Uttar Pradesh, though later
investigations have alleged suicide as the
cause of death in this instance. Two police
officers were suspected of involvement in
the crimes.[14] The alleged gang rape was
widely reported in the press both in India
and globally.[83] After an extensive
investigation, the CBI concluded that the
rape and murder allegations were false.
Tourist advisories
Rape cases against internationals have led
several countries to issue travel advisories
that "women travellers should exercise
caution when travelling in India even if they
are travelling in a group; avoid hailing taxis
from streets or using public transport at
night, and to respect local dress codes and
customs and avoid isolated areas".[84]
In March 2013, a Swiss couple who were
cycling from Orchha to Agra, decided to
camp for a night in a village in Datia District.
There they were physically assaulted by
eight locals, robbed, the man was
overpowered and tied up, while the 39-year-
old woman was gang-raped in front of her
husband at the village.[85][86] The Swiss
government issued a travel advisory in 2013
about the "increasing numbers of rapes and
other sexual offences" happening in India.[87]
The news coverage of the rapes and
updated travel advisories have worried
Indian tourism industry.[88][89] Some media
reports stated that high-profile rape cases
had led to tourist numbers to drop 20 to 30
per cent compared to previous year. The
Assocham agency found that of 1200
businesses surveyed more than 70%
reported cancellations by female tourists
from Britain, Canada, the U.S. and Canada
along with a 25% decline overall.[90]
However, tourist arrivals in India increased
from 6.5 million arrivals in 2012 to 6.8
million arrivals in 2013.[91] Tourist arrivals in
2014 observed another 10% increase over
2013 levels.[92]
In January 2015, the Tourism Ministry of
India introduced emergency helplines for
female tourists.[93] The Indian government
announced in April 2015, that tourists are
now being given a "welcome card" by the
immigration officer on arrival with resources
to ensure their safety, that GPS-embedded
tracking system are being introduced in all
taxis, and tourist helplines in 12 foreign
languages have been instituted.[94]
In a non-tourism related case, Russia issued
travel advisory to its citizens after a Russian
national was raped in December 2009.[95]
The case was widely covered after a
member of Indian parliament Shantaram
Laxman Naik blamed the victim and the
media for over emphasising the Russian
rape case after, "she was raped by a state
politician in his car after they had dinner
together".[96] Naik was criticised by leaders
of Indian political parties such as CPI-M, BJP
and SP for blaming the rape victim and
media.[96]
Legal response
The Indian law prior to the Nirbhaya Incident
took into account only acts of penile-vaginal
intercourse within the definition of rape and
forcible acts of penetration of vagina,
mouth, urethra or anus through penis or an
inanimate object did not fall within the
definition of rape. Many rapists were not
prosecuted because there was no law to
punish such acts.[23] The definition was
expanded in 2013 to consider rape as any
acts like penetration by penis, or any object
or any part of body to any extent, into the
vagina, mouth, urethra or anus of a woman
or making her to do so with another person
or applying of mouth to sexual organs
without the consent or will of the woman
constitutes the offence of rape.[97]
The section has also clarified that
penetration means "penetration to any
extent", and lack of physical resistance is
immaterial for constituting an offence.
Except in certain aggravated situation the
punishment will be imprisonment not less
than seven years but which may extend to
imprisonment for life, and shall also be
liable to fine. In aggravated situations,
punishment will be rigorous imprisonment
for a term which shall not be less than ten
years but which may extend to
imprisonment for life, and shall also be
liable to fine.[97]
Section 53A of the Code of Criminal
Procedure of the Indian law lays down
certain provisions for medical examination
of the accused.[98] Section 164A of the Code
of Criminal Procedure deals with the medical
examination of the victim.[99]
The revised statutes of 2013 Indian law, in
section 376A, mandates minimum
punishment in certain cases. For instance, if
the sexual assault inflicts an injury which
causes death or causes the victim to be in a
persistent vegetative state, then the
convicted rapist must be sentenced to
rigorous imprisonment of at least twenty
years and up to the remainder of the natural
life or with a death penalty."[97][24] In the case
of "gang rape", the same mandatory
sentencing is now required by law.[24] The
convicted is also required to pay
compensation to the victim which shall be
reasonable to meet the medical expenses
and rehabilitation of the victim, and per
Section 357 B in the Code of Criminal
Procedure. Death penalty for the most
extreme rape cases is specified.[24]
The 2013 law also increased the age of
consent from 16 years to 18 years, and any
sexual activity with anyone less than age of
18, irrespective of consent, now constitutes
statutory rape.[24]
The new law has made it mandatory for all
government and privately run hospitals in
India to give free first aid and medical
treatment to victims of rape.[100]
As well, in May 2013, the Supreme Court of
India held that the two-finger test on a rape
victim violates her right to privacy, and
asked the Delhi government to provide
better medical procedures to confirm sexual
assault.[101][102]
On 3 November 2015 the Allahabad High
Court observed that a child born out of rape
will have inheritance rights over the
property of the assaulter and will be treated
as illegitimate,[103] however if the child is
taken for adoption then he/she will not have
any rights on the property of the biological
father.[104][105]
National Database on Sexual Offenders
(NDSO)
The government on September 20, 2018
launched the National Database on Sexual
Offenders (NDSO). The database contains
entries of offenders convicted under charges
of rape, gang rape, POCSO and eve teasing.
The portal as of now contains 440,000
entries of cases that have been reported
since 2008. It's managed by the National
Crime Records Bureau. The database is
accessible only to the law enforcement
agencies for investigation and monitoring
purpose.[106]
Fast track courts
As a result of the 2012 Delhi gang rape
case, the Indian government implemented a
fast-track court system to rapidly prosecute
rape cases.[107] The fast-track court system
has been welcomed by some, but their
fairness questioned by legal experts and
scholars.[107] The legal scholars state that the
fast-track courts may not be fair in an
impoverished country where millions of
cases are backlogged, and there are an
average of just 14 judges per million people
- among the lowest in a United Nations
study of 65 nations.[108] Fast track courts
divert limited judicial resources and add
delays to prosecution of other crimes.[107][108]
They noted that Delhi state had instituted
five fast-track courts in 2013 to handle rape
cases, but there are no fast-track courts for
murder.[107] Mrinal Satish, of New Delhi's
National Law University said, "there is a risk
that in this emotional response and clamor
for immediate justice, we could end up
putting innocent people in prison".[107]
Marital rape
Marital rape is not a criminal offence within
Indian legal framework,[109] except during
the period of judicial separation of the
partners. The marital rape exception, that is
exception 2 of section 375 of the Indian
Penal Code states that sexual intercourse by
a man with his own wife, the wife not being
under 18 years of age, is not rape. In the
1980s, women's rights groups lobbied
for marital rape to be declared unlawful.[110]
[111]
 Government officials argued that the
contract of marriage presupposes consent
to sex and that criminalising marital rape in
turn would degrade family values in India.
[109]
Forced sex by husbands upon wives
does have legal consequences in Indian
matrimonial law, in that it can be treated as
a matrimonial fault, resulting in dissolution
of the marriage.[112] All religious personal
laws and the secular law governing
marriage and divorce in India deem ‘cruelty’
by one spouse to the other to be a ground
for divorce.[112] The originally enacted Hindu
marriage Act provided that in order to
constitute a cause for divorce, an act of
cruelty should be such that it ‘produces a
reasonable apprehension in the mind of the
petitioner that it will be harmful or injurious
for the petitioner to live with the other
party.’[112] Marital rape also amounts to
‘sexual abuse’ under the law regarding
domestic violence enacted in 2005, under
which aggrieved wives or female live-in
partners can claim civil remedies, like
injunction against violence, dispossession
from home or direction to the
husband/partner to pay maintenance.[112]
The law kicks in to regulate sexual violence
in marriage only in cases when it is
accompanied by extreme physical violence
or when the health and safety of the wife is
endangered, as in the case of minor wives.
[112]

This exception has restricted application

when the wife has been living separately
from the husband, with or without a decree
of judicial separation. In such cases, the
husband can be prosecuted for rape. If
convicted, the minimum punishment is
imprisonment for two years and imposition
of a fine (Section 376B, IPC).[112] This clause
was ratified in the year 1983, a period of
great upheaval in the history of rape law
reform in India, when major changes were
made for the first time since enactment of
rape laws by the colonial state in 1860.[112]
The parliamentary committee that gave final
shape to the 1983 amendments was
disinclined to treating non-consensual sex
between a separated couple as amounting
to rape, on the grounds that a rape charge
would heighten the possibilities of divorce
by making reconciliation that much harder
for the couple. Hence, the minimum
sentence stipulated for this category of rape
was set much lower than usual.[112]
Until 2017, there was a discrepancy
between two sub clauses of Section 375.
Exception 2 stated that “sexual intercourse
by a man with his own wife, the wife not
being under fifteen years of age, is not
rape.”[113] However, the same provision
stated that a man is said to commit rape if
he has sexual relations with a woman with
or without her consent, when she is under
18 years of age.[114] Independent Thought, a
non-governmental organisation, in a petition
in 2013, had challenged Exception 2.[114] In a
landmark ruling on 11 October 2017, the
supreme court upheld the age of consent as
18 years.[115] The court held that the
distinction made between a married girl
child and an unmarried girl child was
illogical and ran against the provisions of
the Protection of Children from Sexual
Offences Act, 2012. Such a distinction also
violated a child's right to liberty and dignity
under Article 21 of the Constitution. Two
other significant statutes undermined by the
original IPC section were the Prohibition of
Child Marriage Act, 2006 and the Juvenile
Justice Act, both of which define a child as
someone below the age of 18.[116]
Irrespective of her marital status, sex with a
minor girl will now attract a minimum
rigorous imprisonment of ten years.
Education programmes
In February 2017, the Ministry of Health and
Family Welfare unveiled resource material
relating to health issues to be used as a part
of a nationwide adolescent peer-education
plan called Saathiya. Among other subjects,
the material discusses relationships and
consent. The material states, "Yes,
adolescents frequently fall in love. They can
feel attraction for a friend or any individual
of the same or opposite sex. It is normal to
have special feelings for someone. It is
important for adolescents to understand
that such relationships are based on mutual
consent, trust, transparency and respect. It
is alright to talk about such feelings to the
person for whom you have them but always
in a respectful manner. ... Boys should
understand that when a girl says 'no' it
means no."[117][118]
