‘There’s a lack of positive space for men’
| ||
A family court has said that if a wife insults her husband in the
presence of his friends or in the presence of her friends and relatives,
it amounts to cruelty. dna gets one man talking

There is no help for a man if the wife is abusive. The
judgment where the court granted divorce to a man who accused his wife
of mental cruelty, citing her abusive behaviour towards him, his friends
and his relatives needs to be supported.
In a marital set-up, if a wife keeps on humiliating her husband for whatever reasons — financial or sexual incompetence — the man is bound to feel a loss of dignity and it is in no way different than the loss of dignity of a wife for any reason. We should see this in the same view of a man humiliating his wife by attacking her womanhood — when she is unable to bear a child — or even if he taunts her for her looks. As a progressive and just society, we should discourage any form of humiliation based upon gender roles. The Supreme Court has given many judgments in which it has granted divorce when the wife has been abusive towards her husband and insulted him in public. Today, men have no place to go to for help if they have an abusive wife or one who shows signs of compulsive obsessive disorder. Men do not even ask for help and continue to suffer in abusive relationships as it is considered unmanly to seek help. The real problem lies in the fact that society functions by creating competition among men. Unfortunately, in the patriarchal social mindset, a man has to earn his manhood to gain respect and survive. The emotions of a man are not respected in the same way as the emotions of a woman are. With the increasing focus on women’s issues, there is a lack of positive space for men in society. Many a time it is found that men turn violent towards themselves and take the extreme step. Every year, over 63,000 married men commit suicide in India. These men are mostly those who have proven their manhood and have become eligible for marriage, including many professionals. According to the principles of natural justice, this judgment seems a step in the right direction. ‘Humiliating hubby is cruelty’, p5 |

Consensual sex with minor not a crime, Delhi court says
NEW
DELHI: A city court has observed that consensual sex with a girl aged
below 18 years does not constitute an offence under the Protection of
Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
The court said the provisions of POCSO Act suggest that where a physical relationship — which is not in the nature of an assault — takes place with the minor girl's consent and where the consent has not been obtained unlawfully, no offence can be said to have been committed.
Rejecting the plea of the police and Delhi Commission for Women that POCSO Act prohibits minors from having any kind sexual relationship, additional sessions judge Dharmesh Sharma said, "I am afraid if that interpretation is allowed, it would mean that the human body of every individual under 18 years is the property of the state and no individual below 18 years can be allowed to have pleasures associated with one's body."
ASJ Sharma, however, urged state authorities to spread awareness related to unsafe sex or early marriage. "But there lies a greater responsibility on all of us, the state including police in spreading and creating public awareness about the impact of girl or boy marrying at a tender age or indulging in unsafe sexual activities," he said.
The court made these observations while acquitting a 22-year-old youth of charges of kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old girl whom he later married. The youth, a native of West Bengal, was acquitted of the charges as the court held that the minor, on her own will, accompanied him and obstacles should not be put in their happy married life.
"As the evidence indicates, they got married voluntarily with their free consent. Hence no case is made out under section 363 (kidnapping) and 366 (kidnapping or inducing woman to compel her marriage) of the IPC," the court said.
"In my opinion, it would neither serve the object of present enactment (POCSO Act) nor the purpose of criminal laws to hold the accused guilty on the ground that he had sexual intercourse with the girl below 18 years," the judge said, adding that it would not be good for the girl if her husband was sent to jail. The POCSO Act treats girls and boys below 18 years of age as minors.
"It is high time that state authorities, its machinery, NGOs and women groups made a determined and sustained endeavour to reach out to all in schools, colleges and residential places, thereby creating public awareness on various aspects of life in case of marriage at a tender age... besides creating awareness amongst adolescents and young adults about the serious psychological and physical health issues that such a relation entails," the court observed.
According to the prosecution, a complaint was filed before the police on March 5 by the minor girl's mother about her daughter going missing since February 26.
The accused was arrested on March 6 and the girl was also recovered from his custody, it said. The girl, in her statement recorded before a magistrate, said she had willingly gone with the accused to his native place in Kolkata and they got married in a temple there and since then they have been living together.
During the trial, the youth told the court that the girl had accompanied him to Kolkata on her own and they got married there but he denied having physical relations with her. The court also noted that the marriage was accepted by the girl's mother. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/Consensual-sex-with-minor-not-a-crime-Delhi-court-says/articleshow/22056783.cms

Live-in relationships breaking up at a rapid rate in Bangalore
Live-in relationships breaking up at a rapid rate in Bangalore
BANGALORE: This technology hub is witnessing a sharp rise in cases of discord in live-in relationships. Most cases reported are those of people working in the software and BPO industries.
"The number of cases of break-up in live-in relationships was 30 during 2011-12. This rose to 42 between April 2012 and March 2013. With an average of six cases reported every month, the number is expected to double this year," says Rani Shetty, chief coordinator with Mahila Sahaya Vani, a family counselling centre attached to city police.
For convenience
Most live-in couples are in the 25-35 age group. To get accommodation, they declare themselves a married couple. Counsellors say such relationships are for financial and social security. Things fall apart when the boy refuses to tie the knot.
Most live-in couples are from outside Karnataka. They find it convenient to live with someone from their own place. Things fall apart when the boy refuses to marry the girl. Only one case — that of Keshava and Arundhati (names changed) — was different. They lived together and had three children. The kids' school records and passports have the name of Keshava as father. But the marriage had not been solemnized as Keshava's parents refused to part with their property if he married Arundhati, says BS Saraswathi, senior counsellor.
To get a house on rent, live-in couples tell landlords they are married. "They live like husband and wife, but their relationship has no legal sanction. When there is a break-up, we refer it to police as a case of cheating," says Aparna Poonesh, a counsellor at the Sahaya Vani. "It's for social and financial security. Nearly 60% of the cases referred to us revolve around sex," says Shetty. Most cases brought to the Sahaya Vani are from the corporate world. "They get to know each other mostly through social media, and share the same language and culture. With their peer groups away, they have individual choices and freedom," she adds.
"Youngsters should be made aware of the problems of living together," says Shetty. "As the relationship doesn't have legal sanction, they need to be careful. Most cases brought to our notice are of women complaining that the men they had lived with refused to marry them."
Marriage dream shattered
Runa (name changed), 27, an employee of a software multinational in the US, was attracted to Bangalore while chatting online with Biswajit (name changed).
As the friendship grew, Biswajit, 30, invited her to the city and promised to find her a job. She quit her job and flew to Bangalore three years ago. After living at a paying guest accommodation for a while, she joined Biswajit, who had taken a house on rent declaring himself and Runa husband and wife.
Runa landed a job. Things went smoothly till Biswajit's parents starting asking him to get married.
One day, Biswajit suddenly disappeared. Runa learnt that he had gone to look for a bride.
On his return, they had an argument. Biswajit manhandled Runa, leading her to the Sahaya Vani. A case of cheating was registered after Biswajit refused, at the counselling sessions, to marry Runa.
Once having hoped the relationship would eventually lead to marriage, Runa is inconsolable today. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bangalore/Live-in-relationships-breaking-up-at-a-rapid-rate-in-Bangalore/articleshow/21612535.cms

Epilepsy is no ground for divorce: judge
Epilepsy is no ground for divorce: judge
DAVANAGERE: Bangalore is slowly becoming the suicide capital in the country, said Karnataka high court judge N Kumar.
Addressing the gathering after inaugurating a one-day programme on 'district-level mental health awareness workshop', organized by DHO, Karnataka state mental health authority, district administration, district advocates association, here on Sunday, Kumar said that over 80% of the population is increasingly falling into the suicide trap.
"Those in the IT and BT sector, too, think that suicide is an easy option. Happiness, tolerance and contentment quotient among the youths is declining," he rued.
Over 10% of the world population is suffering from mental illnesses, and over 30% of Americans alone suffer from mental illness, he noted.
Increasing work pressure, break-up of the joint family system, socio-economic crisis are leading to mental illnesses.
However, most of them are treatable, including schizophrenia.
Earlier, epilepsy was a ground for divorce, but not any more as it is curable, said Judge Kumar.
He called on practicing advocates not to encourage divorce among couples who cite schizophrenia as a ground for separation.
Encourage them to seek help and get back together, was his advice to lawyers.
Dr B N Gangadhar, vice-president of Indian Psychiatrist Association and professor at Nimhans, Bangalore, delivered a talk on suicidal tendencies, causes and remedies.

Magistrate held for 'rape' gets bail, to join duty
Magistrate held for 'rape' gets bail, to join duty
COIMBATORE: Judicial magistrate S Thangaraj, who was arrested on Saturday on charges of raping a female sub-inspector, got bail from the Tirupur district and principal sessions judge's court on Monday. The bail order was served to the Coimbatore Central Prison and the magistrate was released on Monday evening. "He will take charge on Tuesday at the fast track court in Coonoor," his lawyer, Bhavani B Mohan said.
Thangaraj was arrested from ThattanKuttai near Kumarapalayam in Namakkal district on Saturday and sent to judicial custody after a female sub-inspector lodged a complaint with the Palladam all women police station, alleging that he had a physical relationship with her for more than a year after promising to marry her. The Palladam all women police station registered a case against the magistrate under Sections 376 (rape), 417 (cheating) and 506 (i) (criminal intimidation) of the IPC.
Thangaraj filed a bail petition before the Tirupur district and principal sessions judge's court, which came up for hearing on Monday before judge K Ganeshan. Public prosecutor KN Subramaniam argued that police had followed the rules and regulations of the Supreme Court and Madras high court in registering the case and, hence, the accused should not be allowed to enter the Nilgiris and Tirupur districts till the police investigation was completed.
Senior advocate Bhavani B Mohan, appearing on behalf of Thangaraj, argued that the woman SI had lodged a complaint with the Palladam all women police station on June 21 and that the case was registered on June 29. Police arrested the magistrate on Saturday and slapped rape charges on him. The charge does not apply in this case as they were in a relationship with mutual consent. The magistrate was not even told about the grounds of arrest. Mohan termed the incident as an assault on the judiciary and pleaded to the court to release Thangaraj.
Judge Ganeshan granted bail after the arguments concluded. Thangaraj, 31, of Oonjapalayam in Erode district is judicial magistrate at the fast track court at Coonoor in the Nilgiris district. He had allegedly been in a relationship with the woman sub-inspector attached to Palladam police station. However, he married another woman on June 20. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Magistrate-held-for-rape-gets-bail-to-join-duty/articleshow/20867226.cms
COIMBATORE: Judicial magistrate S Thangaraj, who was arrested on Saturday on charges of raping a female sub-inspector, got bail from the Tirupur district and principal sessions judge's court on Monday. The bail order was served to the Coimbatore Central Prison and the magistrate was released on Monday evening. "He will take charge on Tuesday at the fast track court in Coonoor," his lawyer, Bhavani B Mohan said.
Thangaraj was arrested from ThattanKuttai near Kumarapalayam in Namakkal district on Saturday and sent to judicial custody after a female sub-inspector lodged a complaint with the Palladam all women police station, alleging that he had a physical relationship with her for more than a year after promising to marry her. The Palladam all women police station registered a case against the magistrate under Sections 376 (rape), 417 (cheating) and 506 (i) (criminal intimidation) of the IPC.

Pune: Upset over the latest amendments in the Hindu Marriage Act which virtually give wives a final say in divorce
cases, Men’s Rights Association (MRA) on Saturday staged a protest against the legislation which they term as 'draconian'.
"The bill has a provision giving power to the courts to not grant a divorce unless the wife was paid adequate amount of
money in the name of financial security of the woman. Such powers
may result in harassment of men," MRA president Atit Rajpara said.
He also said the bill also provides special powers to wives to
oppose the divorce if she was unhappy with the money she received from
the husband under section IPC 498 (A), domestic violence act and several
other maintenance laws.
According to the MRA, such clauses are outright anti-male and
gender-biased and therefore men’s rights activists and organisations are
opposing them. Rajpara said the mens’ rights organisations want the
bill to be gender-neutral.
