Explanation:

Lynching is an illegally authorized way  of punishing somebody by an informal group. It is most often also referred as informal public executions by a mob who wish to punish an alleged transgressor, or to intimidate a group. Lynching is an egregious manifestation of prejudice, intolerance, and contempt towards the rule of law. Manipur was the first state to pass a law against lynching. The Manipur law closely follows the Supreme Court’s prescriptions, creating a nodal officer to control such crimes in every State, special courts and enhanced punishments. But its weighty significance lies in that it breaks new ground in some critical matters concerning hate violence in India, and shows the way in which the Union and other governments need to move if they are serious about combating hate crimes.
