Abstract:
Due to escalating incidents related to gender crimes against women, “Priyanka Dubey”, a professional reporter, contributed to the literary world. She wrote a ground reportage to aid people to recognize the issue of sexual assault in India and the victims having their justice delayed or not being served. This paper is a study on why and how the criminal justice system fails to do justice to the victims mentioned in the book “NO NATION FOR WOMEN” and, in general—a fundamental analysis of what the criminal justice system is and its difference in investigating the cases of sexual assaults, rapes and violence resulted due to gendered crimes. Assaults against women and the ignorance feigned by the public officials are ridiculed all along with every discussion in India. Many landmark cases that occurred in the past, like the Mathura case in 1972 or the infamous Nirbhaya case in 2012, were influential in modifying the Criminal laws associated with sexual violence, making forensic investigation mandatory and enervating the police force, constituency, and academic sectors. Regrettably, these amendments did not make any difference to how the system works. The public officials and ministry were said to have even wasted and underused the budget assigned to administrate the rules and laws. So, this paper is showing the result of delayed justice provided and relativity with criminal justice system. The sources and legal databases regarding the book were indulged in the investigation method and the landmark cases as further explanations. This paper is the unraveling of our search behind the Justice system and its failures.
