  • Abstract:
  • A rapid increase in the use of computer and internet has given rise to new forms of crimes like publishing sexually explicit materials in electronic form, video voyeurism and cyber crimes namely, cyber defamation, cyber bullying, cyber stalking etc. There are no specific provision in the IT Act, 2000 that specifically deal with the cyber crimes against women as does the provisions of the Indian Penal Code, the Constitution of India or the Code of Criminal Procedure for that matter. There is a need for bringing an exclusive legislation for the protection women from cyber crimes.
