To encounte the menance of legal loot by women, men will have to form ALL INDIA association to resist such laws. In democracy like India, only numbers count. Let men unite to have balanced laws or provision to punish women if she cannot prove her allegations in courts. These laws are worse than TADA ! In TADA etc only the person involved is punished, in pro-women laws entire family of men is ruined. It can extend to ,minors, aged and even to friends, neighbours who try to solve the domestic marital problems amicably. Is there any study of fate of women who used these laws. What did they get out of it? Members may load info if available with them.

This is a very good idea to make associations.
However there are a few weaknesses in the associations formed. That is one of the reasons why no tangible things could be achieved by such associations.
I am thinking as to how this menace should be opposed. One of the idea propounded by me to refuse to marriage- if men refuse to marry say for five years- all the problems would be solved.
I have some more idea- well thought out. Soon i will put before learned friends here.

marriage was an institution in old days
now it has became a business. In many cases i have dealt i saw the
particular phenomenon that the women use the 498A case as a catalyst to
mulct more money at the time of settlement. I personally opine that
thogh the man is physically stronger ofspouse but infact he is legally
a weakling.

Marriage as a business- it is a business for women:
-Before marriage they see if the man can pay for household expenses.
-During marriage, if the man is not giving her enough money, she will torture the man.
-During break up time of marriage, she will extort money through 498A.
-After break up, she will get alimony and become rich.
Marriage has always been a business for the fairer (smarter) s*x.

For all this, our idiotic governments and farcical and illogical laws are responsible . I WILL CERTAINLY ADVISE ALL PROSPECTIVE HUSBANDS NOT TO MARRY IN THE PRESENCE OF TOTALLY ONE SIDED LAWS WHICH CAN SHATTER ONE'S LIFE AND PEACE FOR EVER. A Live-in relation is still a better option.

I too believe when first woman spoke, she spoke against men. She is presenting a very incomplete picture. She must have known that all cases today reveal that women and all their families are greedier than any hell of a thing. She (Ms Romeshwari) does not seem to have seen much of society. Today, the number of families SILENTLY SUFFERING because of greedy and selfish women IS FAR FAR MORE THAN the actual cases in the courts. This is all because nobody (Men) wants to suffer for no fault of his in the hands of an absolutely biased laws and judicial system, a creation of mentally blind people .

Well my friend, no body can stop an idea whose time has come. Abuse against men's right will stop the day men will become vigilant of their rights. And i can see the change. Cheers.

Today i was reading in TOI that somebody is starting a site where they will put name, address, photograph etc. of women and their family members, who abuses these law so that people be alerted from them.
Good effort. Keep it up. We can put it up here also.

Marriage Tajmahal jaisa hai. Bahar ho to andar jane ko ji karta hai aour andhar ho to bahar ane ko ji karta hai.
Jokes apart marriage is a serious affair, a gamble. It either makes or breaks a person. For each child the period of work increases by 10 years. Every person does not have the brains to be creative and I think it is Gods way of making each person [ no matter what his status and calibre is ] to feel as if he has done something unique.
Somerset Maugham said " fife is like a carpet , with inticate designs." The designs have no purpose.They just exist. I suggest members of this forum to read " OF Human Bondage". Practically all life's questions are answred therien. Ironically a good loving wife , as per the autthor is the greatest source of happiness.
A marathi poem states " life to be a cloth woven with one thread of happiness and 99 of sadness"
Speaking about 498A - it will be peritnent to note that the legislature thought it essential to make this act because women were burnt around the country like torches for dowry etc. Still the atrocities did not stop so it went further and passed the Prevention of Domestic Violence act. Now it seems that both, 498A and Dv are tools in the hands of unsruplous women to subjucate men.
However, to end I may add lhat problem lies even with males. No women will go to the extent of putting her maritial life in jeopardy just to teach somebodly a lesson . It is only when there is no other remedy does a women step out of the house and fire missiles against her husbands.[this is only with respect to non working women]

Well, men are not understanding the real issues- it is not about marriage, false cases or dowry. It is about distribution of fruits od men's labour. It is about enslavement of men, emasculation of men's spirit. Men must understand this.
Before the present technichal advancement, survival was tough. Food was scarce. It was men who sweated and brought food to the home so that women, children and aged person may survive.
Now with technical advancement, brought by research done by men has made work easier in farms, battlefield, factories- so women want to work there. On equality. Woemen want to work in factories, but no agitation to work in dingy mines. Women want to join armed forces- but no agitation to be posted in siachen. The work which has become easier, women want to enter into- claiming equality.
Well, even that is acceptable. What is not acceptabe is usurpation of fruits of men labour. Why should men maintain women when they are equal. why should men give residence to women, who are equal. Women should understand that equality comes with responsibility. There cannot be any right without responsibility.
But in democracy votes count- and not logic.
