What @Faith No More said
India's rape problem is a direct cause of the patriarchal values, system and beliefs. Men are considered more desirable and superior, women are inferior and disposable. Not everyone knows this but India also has a problem with gender-selective abortion.
The only way India will ever fix this is not trough massive executions of rapists (like it happened to a few men some years ago after an Indian woman was violently raped inside a bus and died in the hospital a few days later) , but by allowing the emancipation of women and promoting a more egalitarian society. If India finds any use in executing rapists, that's their prerogative and I won't object to it, but it's attacking symptoms, not the cause.
And this, my friends, is how to not run a country. I'd like to see declarations from the Indian government on this.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
