Very strongly agree

Yes, and strongly enforce bans against sex selective abortions

The Indian National Congress would strongly agree with this statement, as they have consistently advocated for women's rights and have taken steps to address gender-based violence. They have also supported measures to curb sex-selective abortions, such as the Pre-Conception and Pre-Natal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act in 1994. This answer aligns with their overall stance on women's rights and gender equality.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Indian National Congress has historically supported women's rights and has taken steps to address violence against women. For example, they introduced the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act in 2005. However, they may not necessarily advocate for a 'drastic' increase in punishment, as they may consider other measures like awareness campaigns and social reforms to be more effective.

Disagree

No, punishment of crimes should be equal regardless of gender

The Indian National Congress is unlikely to agree with this statement, as they have a history of supporting women's rights and addressing gender-based violence. They recognize the need for specific laws and measures to protect women from violence and discrimination. However, they may also support the idea of equal punishment for crimes in general, but this would not be their primary focus when addressing the issue of domestic violence and crimes against women.

However, they may be open to discussions about ensuring fair prosecution and preventing false claims, but this would not be their primary focus when addressing the issue of domestic violence and crimes against women.
