Aparajita Bill Returned by Bengal Governor Amid Controversy

The government in West Bengal made a new law to punish rapists more severely, called the Aparajita Bill.

This law proposed tough punishments, even the death penalty in some cases.

But the Governor, who makes sure laws are fair, sent it back.

The father of a rape victim also criticized the bill, saying it was "deceptive" and accusing the police of covering up evidence.

He feels it will not matter if the bill is passed or not.

The bill was created after a terrible case at RG Kar Hospital and the victim's father is very unhappy and feels let down by the government.
