Senior advocate Raju Ramachandran,  amicus curiae appointed by the Supreme Court in the PIL filed by ‘Shakti Vahini’ that sought measures to curb honour killing and unwarranted interference by Khap Panchayats in  inter-caste marriages,  has filed significant suggestions before the bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra.

Ramachandran urged the court to direct  Centre to implement the 242nd Law Commission Report submitted in August 2012 that suggested a special stringent law to combat the menace. The law panel report had proposed a legislation to prevent the “acts endangering the liberty of the couple married or intending to marry and their family members”.

“It has been more than 5 years,the Law Commission had given its report”, he said.

Besides this, Ramachandran has also suggested speedy investigation by a SIT in each case of harassment of couples by khap panchayat and the arrest of culprits.
