Some of the issue to be addressed at the project, which will involve debates and workshops, would be uniformity in the age of consent in rape laws and to bring it in conformity with Child Marriage Restraint Act, review of definition of rape, to consider recommendation of death penalty to the person accused of the offence of rape.

The month-long project was important as the issue has acquired great national significance and was a dastardly crime destroying the dignity of women, NCW said in a press release.
