The bill on hate crimes also provides punishment for holding assemblies to condemn inter-caste, inter-community marriages in the name of family honour.<\/p>\n

The Rajasthan assembly passed two bills on Monday in which death penalty has been proposed for hate crimes against couples in the name of honour & tradition, & life imprisonment for mob lynching.<\/p>\n

Rajasthan is the first state in India to have a special law to deal with hate crimes against couples, & second after Madhya Pradesh to make a law against mob lynching.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Rajasthan Prohibition of Interference with the Freedom of Matrimonial Alliances in the Name of Honour & Tradition Bill, 2019, & the Rajasthan Protection from Lynching Bill, 2019, were tabled in the assembly on July 30 by law minister Shanti Dhariwal.<\/p>\n

The bill on hate crimes also provides punishment for holding assemblies to condemn inter-caste, inter-community marriages in the name of family honour.<\/p>\n

The bill said a special law for such hate crimes will act as a deterrent as it has severe punishment for such acts of violence & prevent caste & community assemblies that take place to condemn such marriages.<\/p>\n

Punishment could be death, imprisonment for life, and\/or a fine which may extend to \u20b91 lakh.<\/p>\n

If cases of grievous hurt to a couple or either of them, the bill prescribes rigorous imprisonment for 10 years which may be extended to life imprisonment & a fine of \u20b93 lakh.<\/p>\n

For participating in a gathering to condemn a marriage claiming it has dishonoured the caste or community or tradition or brought disrepute, or issuing threats to couples, jail-term can extend from six months to five years, & a fine from \u20b91 lakh to \u20b92 lakh.<\/p>\n

The bill empowers a sub-divisional magistrate or district magistrate to prevent such assemblies & take steps to ensure safety of the couple.<\/p>\n

The bill on mob lynching says a person who commits an act of lynching which causes death of the victim will face rigorous life imprisonment & a fine up to \u20b95 lakh. In case of grievous hurt, the punishment proposed is jail up 10 years & a fine up to \u20b93 lakh.<\/p>\n

Offences under the mob lynching bill will be tried by a sessions court & be cognizable, non-bailable & non-compoundable.<\/p>\n

The bill also prescribes a jail term of up to five years & penalty of \u20b91 lakh for obstructing arrest of the accused, creating hurdles in legal proceedings or threatening the witnesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is proposed to nip the evil in the bud & to prevent spreading of hatred or incitement to mob lynching by creating special offences against such offences,\u201d the statement of object & reason of the bill said.<\/p>\n

The state government, in consultation with a chief justice of the high court, will also set up designated courts to hear mob lynching cases, the bill said,.<\/p>\n

Civil society activists such as Aruna Roy of Mazdoor Kisan Shakti Sangathan & Kavita Srivastava (PUCL) came out strongly against the manner in which the bills were introduced without public consultation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
