Chief Minister Shiv Raj Singh Chauhan, after passing the bill, said, \u201cThe people who rape 12-year-old girls are not humans but devils. They don\u2019t have the right to live\u201d.\u00a0 The bill will be sent to the Centre and will need the assent of the President for becoming a law.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:
