Issues related to safety of women • The Standing Committee on Human Resource Development (Chair: Dr. Satyanarayan Jatiya) submitted its report on issues related to safety of women in March 2020. Key observations and recommendations of the Committee include: • Strengthening of legislation: Several laws have been framed for the welfare of women. In spite of the legislative framework in place, women continue to face inequality, discrimination and violence.Laws to protect women should be strictly implemented. • Some ways include: (i) filing of charge sheets within 30 days, (ii) denial of bail to accused, and (iii) trial of pending cases within six months. • Representation of women: Crimes against women are due to their lack of representation in decision- making positions. It recommended 33% reservation for women at all levels of government. • Fast Track Courts: The importance of the timely delivery of justice in reducing crimes against women. The Department of Justice should ensure that 1,800 FTSCs become operational across India at the earliest. There should be one FTSC within a 500 km of radius. • Human Trafficking: There is no comprehensive law for the prevention of human trafficking. A National Anti-Trafficking Bureau should be established. It should be composed of police, NGOs, and other stakeholders. It should have the power to investigate intra-state trafficking cases, and coordinate anti-trafficking efforts with international bodies. Further, an Anti-Trafficking Relief and Rehabilitation Committee should be constituted for providing relief and rehabilitation to victims of human trafficking. • Nirbhaya Fund: The total amount under the Nirbhaya Fund is Rs 7,436 crore for 32 projects and schemes across India. However, only Rs 2,647 has been disbursed to the concerned bodies for implementation of the projects and schemes. It recommended that the projects and schemes should be implemented in a timely manner and funds should be utilised effectively. • Infrastructure: To address crimes against women the Committee recommended certain infrastructural and institutional mesaures which may be implemented. These include: (i) setting up of women’s cells in police stations,

    CURRENT AFFAIRS= 07-09-2020 KESAVANANDA BHARATI Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed grief over the passing away of Kesavananda Bharati Ji. About: Kesavananda Bharati was the head seer of the Edneer Mutt in Kasaragod district of Kerala since 1961. He left his signature in one of the significant rulings of the Supreme Court when he challenged the Kerala land reforms legislation in 1970. The Kesavananda Bharati judgement, is a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of India that outlined the basic structure doctrine of the Constitution. Justice Hans Raj Khanna asserted through the Basic Structure doctrine that the constitution possesses a basic structure of constitutional principles and values. The doctrine forms the basis of power of the Indian judiciary to review and override amendments to the Constitution of India enacted by the Indian parliament. MOPLAH REBELLION A report submitted to the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) in 2016 had recommended the removal of the Wagon Tragedy victims and Malabar Rebellion leaders Ali Musliyar and Variamkunnath Ahmad Haji, and Haji’s two brothers from a book on martyrs of India’s freedom struggle. CROSS & CLIMB 2019 1 About: The report sought the removal of names of 387 ‘Moplah rioters’ from the list of martyrs. The book, Dictionary of Martyrs: India’s Freedom Struggle 1857-1947, was released by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week. The report describes Haji as the “notorious Moplah Riot leader” and a “hardcore criminal,” who “killed innumerable innocent Hindu men, women, and children during the 1921 Moplah Riot, and deposited their bodies in a well, locally known as Thoovoor Kinar”.
