Punish women molesters

Every day throughout the country women are being harassed, raped, beaten and even murdered in their own homes. Violence increases women's vulnerability and decreases their productivity. We have been reading news of violence every day in newspapers. We want an end to this. Exemplary punishment should be meted out to the stalkers, rapists and murderers; otherwise gender based violence in the country will never stop.
