Are Justice Verma Committee's recommendations enough to prevent crime against women?

The Justice J S Verma Committee has upped the punishment for many existing and proposed sexual offenses but has rejected the idea of a death sentence for rape. Long and whole life imprisonment has been recommended for serious sexual assault, and the Committee has asked the government to improve juvenile justice in the country. Will all the recommendations by the Justice Verma Committee, if implemented, help in preventing rape and other sexual crimes against women?
