India has a culture issue not a law issue. Stamp out misogyny and you’ll reduce rape. All this will do is make rapist more violent as they’ll do more to not get caught.
Tougher crimes for sexual violence is definitely warranted (not death penalty though), and not just in India. But like you said, that alone won’t solve the issue as it’s engrained in the culture. The culture that is promoted by PM Modi and his party though, so any real changes are unlikely.
