INDEX
Analysis
In this context, Sections 280 of the Indian Penal Code provide for a light penalty for navigating a
vessel in such a negligent and rash manner as to endanger a human life, as well as for
intentionally or unintentionally conveying or affecting to be imparted for hire any individual by
water in any vessel, when that vessel is in such a state or so loaded as to negatively affect the
person's life. Sections 280 and 282 provide for either imprisonment for up to six months or a fine
of up to one thousand rupees, or both. Tourism-related activities have increased. Several
disasters involving life and limb have occurred.
Illustration 2 can be identified as one of the landmark judgements related to section 280 of IPC
as it made clear that only person who is at driving position can be made liable in this section, not
anyone who is accompanying him, also not the owner of vessel or boat.
Conclusion
I believe it is past time to strengthen the penalties for crimes under Sections 280 of the Indian
Penal Code and make them non-bailable. This is a subject for Parliament to examine rather than
the courts to decide. As day by day with the increase in tourism in many parts of India and craze
for water rafting or boating this section should be made more stringent.
