Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara stated that an exclusive law for honor killings is unnecessary, advocating for the effective implementation and amendment of existing laws. This comes after a recent honor killing incident where a pregnant woman was killed and her in-laws injured. The minister also pledged to request a special fast-track court and compensation for the victims' family. This contrasts with the Chief Minister's earlier consideration of a new law to curb honor killings.
