Biju Janata Dal Party

Strongly agree

Yes

The Biju Janata Dal (BJD) has shown a commitment to women's rights and safety. For instance, in 2019, the party pledged to reserve 33% of its Lok Sabha seats for women. However, there is no specific record of the party advocating for a drastic increase in punishment for domestic violence and crimes against women, hence the score is not a full 5.

Strongly agree

Yes, and strongly enforce bans against sex selective abortions

The BJD has shown support for women's rights and has taken steps to address gender inequality, such as their 33% reservation for women in Lok Sabha seats. This suggests they would likely support stronger enforcement of bans against sex selective abortions. However, without specific evidence of their stance on this issue, the score is not a full 5.

Disagree

No, increasing penalties above current limits may result in unfair prosecution or false claims

While the BJD is likely to support measures that protect women, they may also be concerned about potential misuse of laws and the possibility of unfair prosecution or false claims. However, there is no specific record of the party expressing this concern, hence the score is not strongly negative.

Disagree

No, punishment of crimes should be equal regardless of gender

The BJD has shown a commitment to addressing gender inequality, suggesting they would likely disagree with the idea that punishment for crimes should be equal regardless of gender, especially in the context of crimes like domestic violence that disproportionately affect women. However, without specific evidence of their stance on this issue, the score is not strongly negative.
