When I was Studying in College there was Famous theory of Keynes, i.e. "Supply Created its own Demand."
However as time passed by and one fine day Come, when I got Married, I was Completely Blank about any Gender biased Law. Not even had Slightest or Even in My Remotest Imagination of the world of 498a, DV or 125. (Why would a Guy Independent, Self Sufficiant will ever need Money or Demand for something like Dowry?) and that is too with Well Earned Metro Urban Woman who is equally capable of earning will ever fulfill demand of Dowry by anyone else or future Husband?)
Throughout Scanning Indian News website from abroad, I was thinking now India is becoming more and more Liberal. But didn’t have any Idea How Education & knowledge can be misused.
There is Every Possible thinking comes in your mind and many elders will guide you to take care of your Responsibilities, Wife. I still Remember Marriage Counseling, but nowhere mentioned or talked about these draconian Laws. I felt cheated after facing music.
I believe there should be law Introduced Irrespective of Religion, Race or Region. That couple planning to marry must inform Government that they are getting married and it should give Time, Knowledge to think and learn about Family Law to Both. Then I bet NO MAN WILL EVER DARE TO COMMIT Grave Offence of Marriage in India.
So Here Govt Created supply of Arsenal (498a & DV) to create Demands (Husband), more and more Husbands are being trapped in false cases.
Let’s educate each Citizen about Draconian Family Laws like 498a, DV, CrpC 125, Sexual Harassment Bill 2010. All these Gender Biased laws. And we shall see some Harmony in Society by less Number of Marriage. Or Government Itself forced to amend the laws to bring Balance in Society.
Happy Republic Day,
From
Harassed Husband
