Maha passes Shakti bill, death penalty for rape

The Maharashtra legislative assembly on Thursday unanimously passed the Shakti Criminal Laws (Maharashtra Amendment) Bill which provides for stricter punishments including death penalty for crimes against women.
The bill, which also provides for speedy trial in such cases, will now go to the legislative council.

State home minister Dilip Walse-Patil tabled the Bill after it was cleared by a joint committee which examined it.
