#YellowJournalism at Best: There's a false narrative being created by so called women's rights activists in India which is also being supported by Media Houses.
The narrative is that Indian Husbands do forced sex with their wives without consent and go scot FREE. They never question when wife does forced sex with her husband against his will or consent, is wife termed as a Rapist?
The logic which is given is that in modern days marriage is based on equal partnership hence wife’s will or consent is to be respected like an unmarried woman irrespective . Further a married woman’s right to say No to sexual relationship is being compared to that of a Sex worker right to say No to customer.
Fact is that India has already criminalized forced sex (#MaritalRape) with wife by Husband and provided laws such as #IPC498A & #DVAct to protect wife and punish not only husband, his relatives too. But the same protection has not been accorded to any Indian Husband as the laws are gender specific.
Forget about Sex if any Husband even Kisses his wife without her consent Husband can be sent to jail on mere verbal allegation by wife & no evidence required in #IPC498A for an FIR against family.
In #DVAct, husband can be thrown out from his Home on mere allegation by wife that husband had forced Sex with her and husband’s family is collateral damage. She gets protection order & on her single testimony husband can be sent to jail in the name of breach of protection order.
In #CrPC125, a Husband is asked to beg, brow or steal but he even has to pay his divorced wife or working wife till she's alive or she gets remarried as per recent precedents, irrespective if the breakdown of marriage is due to his or her fault.
As per #NCRB-2020 Suicide data, Husband suicide is 73093 whereas Wives suicide is 28085.
Have Judiciary or Law makers made any effort or action plan how to reduce Husband Suicide in Last 75 years?
Just a group of elite Men & Women are desperate to term Husband a Rapist for their own self-interest, nothing else !
When a wife does forced sex with her Husband without his will or consent, they will never term the wife a #Rapist. Why the will or consent of Husband should not respected by law makers/society should also be the question?
No one will understand the violation of Men's Constitutional rights under Article14, Equality before law & equal protection by law to all citizens irrespective of gender and Article 21, Life, Liberty & Dignity of a person.
The burning question is that why Man should marry at all with Indian woman when he knows marriage would give wife a #RedCard, which she can use any time and term him a #Rapist and he does not even have a #YellowCard in marriage.
As a result #MarriageStrike is the only option for common man in India till the law makers, judiciary and society do not take corrective action to make modern day marriage in India too as equal partnership in true sense and replace the word husband/wife to spouse in every law related to marriage relationship.
शौक़ नहीं मज़बूरी है #MarriageStrike ज़रूरी है !
STOP ABUSE of MEN : MEN ARE HUMAN TOO !
None will understand violation of Men's Constutional right. Must watch below to educate your self.

#MaritalRape Exception Based On Intelligible Differentia Of Marriage: #MenWelfare Trust Argues Before Delhi HC https://t.co/LWhvQiNuzw

Deepak concluded by referring to Parliamentary Committee Report which dealt with sec. 375 of IPC & international position, specifically UK law .
"in case of sexual abuse in a marriage, a "basket of remedies" is already available in law, which is different on account of difference in relationship & context, & their alleged "inadequacy" cannot be a ground to strike down the exception.#MaritalRapehttps://t.co/UQjdiBvZHD

Sexual relationships, whether marital or non-marital, stand on same footing-militates common sense & mere difference of opinion on this can't make #MaritalRape exception IPC375(2) unconstitutional. #DelhiHighCourt was told on Thursday by NGO @MenWelfare https://t.co/Iohmq7XtZp

A court cannot decide issue of criminalisation of #MaritalRape & a conscious call has to be taken by legislation in the matter after considering all aspects, NGO @MenWelfare Trust Thursday argued before #DelhiHighCourt.https://t.co/hM7Wgjk98s#Articel21 violation Unacceptable.

Social aspects would have to be considered: #MenWelfareTrust @MenWelfare at #DelhiHighCourt https://t.co/0GeVhwPVOo

To say this has no social impact or it's not a social issue would be to truncate the entirety of particular position. Social aspects would have to be considered.
