DV act 2005

What are the latest amendment to domestic violance act 2005 to give some relief to harrassed husbands  implicated falsely by wives on frivolous charges to extort money from their husbands?

As far as I know, no amendments have been made.  But thorough consideration is being done by National Commission for Women and the concerned Ministry, more particularly about the language used in the Act, as the drafting has been severely criticised by the hon'ble Supreme Court in Tarun Batra's case.  If I am wrong, other experts may kindly correct.

Yes , that apart some high court have barred the petitioner from making women implicated in the proceeding under DV Act.
