See this women how they are abusing this men 40% Men are facing Domestic Violence and How Society response that this best example, Why only Women Considered as Innocent by Society? Who gave women batch innocence? Violence IS Violence, Who commits doesn’t matter ……. In specially India now day’s law not is biased but blind, dump, desperate towards men, If any women go to police station register anything against they note down without considering facts, all investigation happens with in police station, all crime sconce is created in police station and all withness examined in police station most of the cases. Men are treated like terrorist, without any notice and chance men & his family captured by cops. Beauty of law is that, if men prove as innocent then also judges are passing judgment like “we have freed you as benefit of drought”, because of this line men can’t claim against wife they should give fearless judgments like the complaints are false and investigation not done proper. Might be few women have trouble, but they are out of reach law so due to that you can’t punish males who are good and moral character Women organization put concern like that all laws in India is misused…. .. I have to answer to that 1. This law is used grossly 2. complete family suffered 3. Name, respect, dignity spoiled 4. Unmarried people dragged into this, so social impact very bad unmarried thing this is going to happen with me if I marry. 5. Relation break, sister is married and women dragged sister and his husband 6. Marriage is relation of faith, faith break marriage break 7. loss of Jobs 8. confidence loss 9. money loss 10. time waste 11. N Number of other hidden losses other laws are not grossly misused and no family impact happen because of those law, no breakage of marriage. Women Organization say’s “did bad then go in jail” we are supporting to this comment that’s 100% correct But again “not did bad in that case false women have to go in jail” ….. Women Organization ummmmmmmmmmm ummmm ummmm ummmm umm Did you understand this language even I don’t hahahahahahahahahaha Really I didn’t understand this women organization is supporter of women or against women ? Why I asking question refer below points 1. Mother-in-law & sister-in-law and other women are also women 2. In our nation after 60 years of independence we still fighting for beard and butter 3. If family disturb means women also suffered 4. If marriage break means loss of both side 5. If marriage break means loss parental control 6. If marriage break means loss of time 7.
