AGARTALA, July 11 (TIWN): When the crimes against women, especially domestic violence has already taken a top most position in Tripura, the tall claims of Tripura commission for women has already turned bleak. It seems all the claims have fall down in front of the increasing rate of crimes against women in Tripura.

Day after day the crime is rising high and TCW is least bothered to take any action against the accused criminals.

It is to be mentioned here, when the Women's organizations believe that low conviction rate, lack of prompt action by police and victims shying from lodging complaints resulted in rise in such crimes.  When the women are not getting a proper justice and the police are always in a race to either hush up the lodged case or to save the accused persons, what is TCW doing for the justice of women in the state.

Reports of crimes against women in Tripura such as rape, dowry deaths, abduction and molestation have increased.

Recently many such cases had already come under limelight where the police are still on a sleep and the accused are making a free movement.

Apart from all other crimes imposed on the women, today women are becoming the victim of domestic violence at large.  Domestic violence against women is an age old phenomenon. Women were always considered weak, vulnerable and in a position to be exploited. Violence has long been accepted as something that happens to women. Cultural mores, religious practices, economic and political conditions may set the precedence for initiating and perpetuating domestic violence, but ultimately committing an act of violence is a choice that the individual makes out of a range of options.

In-laws torturing bride, bride-burning, rape, molestation, violence against children have become everyday’s issues in the city, but TCW is not taking any strict action against the accused. They are not much bothered to solve any case and providing justice to the victim.
