The crime against women and children are not the main reason for protests, instead the pervasive gender inequality in India. But always the questions remains, how to improve the status of women and girl in India? All sectors of our society including students, academia, politician, public, civil and judiciary, the police and the government have to give voice against gender equality. Gender equality norms is fundamental thing in India for long term sustainable change in developing new systems, enforcement law, policy makers and bureaucrats.
