Shri Bodhisattwa Gautam vs Miss Subhra Chakraborty on 15 December, 1995
In Bodhisatwa v. Ms.Subdhra Chakroborty, (1996) 1
SCC 490, the Apex Court has held that 'rape' as an offence which is violative
of the fundamental right of a person guaranteed under Article 21 of the
Constitution. The Apex Court further held that rape is a crime not only
against the person of a woman, it is a crime against the entire society. It
destroys the entire physical of a woman and pushes her into deep emotional
cries. Rape is therefore, the most hated crime. It is a crime against the
basic human rights and is a violation of the victim's most cherished right,
namely, the right to life which includes the right to live with human dignity
contained in Article 21."
