Edited sentence: A famous example is the Kunan Poshpora incident where the soldiers of the Indian Army gang raped between 100-150 women as a form of punishment for their village being allegedly complicit in separatist activity, the Indian state did not charge anyone as of yet for this crime and has instead discredited those who have leaked this citing it as "baseless", showing a form of victim blaming on a state level.Certain states in India such as Haryana, which borders the capital city New Delhi have a rape culture ingrained into the society where the victim is blamed if she is above 14 years of age and is then seen as having tarnished the family reputation.Following the discovery of the dead body there was then a classic example of victim-blaming when members of a local religious group, the Hindu Ekta Manch, led a protest in support of the accused which was attended by two local politicians in the BJP; India's current ruling party.In some rural areas which operate outside the legal system the punishment for rape and murder can be something as trivial as 100 sit ups or push ups.Rape has also been used as a form of punishment in India as well extrajudicially.Rape is also done to intimidate communities, for example, the Kathua rape case where an 8-year-old girl named Asifa Bano who belonged to the nomadic Bakarwal community was abducted, drugged, tortured and then gang-raped inside a Hindu temple before being murdered and having her body disposed of in a forest.Rape is essentially seen as consensual according to Panchayati raj.This act was done by local villagers with the help and participation of police officers.Usually the victim is seen as the main reason behind the rape or is seen as equally at fault as the perpetrator
