Agreed with Nandkumar.

 Draconian law

Shahbanoo case

Domestic Violence Act

498A

Soon the institution of marriage will be the thing of the past. 

Equality and women's liberation - a price has to be paid and men folk are paying.

Anil ji marriage is not necessary. DV Act is applicable in the case wherein without marraige also lived together.............so it is endless.

 Yes, that is correct. It was a sin to live with a woman without marriage. Now live-in relationship has got legal sanction, the lady and the children begotten have equal right. Maharashtra Government was trying to pass a law in this respect. I think it has been temporarily shelved. They are waiting for the election. Family strife is bound to increase. Divorce and alimony - order of the day.

Mr.Ram,

                              Already a prosecution under section 498A I.P.C. exists. When it is so another prosecution under domestic violence act is an abuse of process of law and it tantamounts to double jeopardy which is constitutionally tabooed U/A 20(2) of the constitution of India
