More than enough has been said and not done about the unfortunate incident that took place in Delhi. When a young woman is violated inside the trusted confinement of a cab, that’s bound to raise questions. And it did. Since the lady was inebriated at the time, is that an excuse for anyone — male or female — to infringe her personal space? Wouldn’t blaming her be like blaming all the men in Delhi for her rape? In the same breath, doesn’t the recruitment of this particular taxi driver with a history of sex offence on his side demand due corporate regulations? However, won’t it also beg some consideration because it’s unfair to not let a person with a horrible past have a second chance at leading a noble life? On a similar plane, what good would a blanket ban on a taxi-booking service in the capital city serve? Can it miraculously bring down the number of sexual violence reported up north? Well, no.
