Now U.S. online ride-hailing service Uber has been banned from operating in the capital after a female passenger accused one of its drivers of rape, a case that has reignited a debate about the safety of women in the South Asian nation. According to the National Crime Records Bureau, India recorded 33,707 cases in 2013 as against 24,923 in 2012.

We condemn this heinous crime and hope Taxi-Cab companies while recruiting Drivers should do a complete background, criminal record check and Psycho-analysis test. Government should also bring strict laws in-order to keep a check on these heinous crimes !

The usage of technology is for the betterment of the society but if these kind of Criminal acts keeps on taking place then its not pardonable and some serious justice should prevails in order to check these people !
