If Lord Rama, guys let
me make it crystal clear, it is just a fictional work, don’t take it to
heart and yes, my effort is to prosecute the past actions with the
present day laws.
So, coming back to our
beloved King Rama, he was believed to be the embodiment of Dharma and the
incarnation of Vishnu, the Preserver. His rule was blameless that people today
hanker after Rama-Rajya, a government conducted like that of Lord Ram
himself. His endeavors were
only to establish Dharma.
However, if Ram had
done those deeds in today’s India, he can be booked under many sections
according to our Indian Penal Code and other laws. I am not kidding you guys.
Lord Ram can be booked under the subsequent
sections for the deeds he has done.
Section 302 of Indian Penal Code
Lord
Ram, when he was just 16 years old shot Tataka and Subhahu to death as
instructed by Sage Vishwamitra. He was a juvenile then, so the Juvenile
Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2000 will give him a succour to escape the comeuppance.
In the
later years, his brother Laxmana injured Surpanaka that could have led to her
death with Ram’s prompt. Not only this, Rama slayed Vali by hiding behind a
tree. These murders put him under section 302 of IPC and 307 of IPC that stands
for offence of murder and attempt to murder.Slaying of Vali (Left), Humilation of Surpanak (Right) |
Section 30 of the
Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act 1958 (AMASRA 1958)
Lord Ram, in the
bridegroom selection ceremony of Sita destroyed the bygone, Bow of Shiva.
Nevertheless this was a fortuitous deed, but conferring to section 30 of the
AMASRA 1958, if a person ruins a protected artecraft he shall be punishable
with imprisonment which may extend to two years, or with fine which may extend
to one lakh rupees, or with both.
Section
51 of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972Ram destroys Shiv Dhanush |
When
Sita asked Rama to bring the golden Deer, Ram sprinted with his bow and arrow
to hunt it down. But if that had happened today, Ram had to think a while. Yes,
section 9 of the wild life act 1972 prohibits hunting of wild animals and
section 51 can put him behind bars for three years or with a fine of twenty five
thousand rupees or with both.
Killing the Golden Deer |
Section 31 of The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005
Ram
questioned the purity of Sita in public on the shores of Lanka. He let her go agonise
over the Agni Pariksha to prove her sanctity.
Despite all this, he banished pregnant Sita from Ayodhya to forest. If it was
now, under section 31 in the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act,
2005, Ram will have to suffer the ramifications of his deeds.
Section 3(1) and 3(2) of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989

Section 3(1) and 3(2) of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989
King Rama slayed innocent sudra, Shambuka as he was doing penance for
self-rejuvenation. It was against laws for sudras to do penance in those days.
But, our constitution provided special emphasis of scheduled and backward
classes. And according to section 3(1) and 3(2) of Scheduled Caste and
Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989, any one is punishable if
found doing atrocities against them.

All
the above are the deeds done in India. But he can also be subjected to laws of Sri
Lankan government. You don’t believe me, Right? The exile prince, Rama led a
secret mission in the foreign land, Sri Lanka. He entered it without a visa by
constructing a bridge. Not only this he waged a war again the then Sri Lankan
King, Ravana and killed him. So the Sri Lankan government will have all rights
to prosecute him, if he had done all this in present day’s setting.
