STOP Misuse of Dowry Law.

Please Sign PIL Against Misuse of 498A

Todays modern indian women, in the name of LAW, misuseing Dowry protection Act IPC -498a to harass innocent husband, his old aged parents and his sisters, Even if he has not taken any dowry or demand any dowry. Just because she is not able to adjust to husband home, To have more Freedom, To control her in-laws, When husband find out her infedelity. or Blackmail husband incase he divorce her, for her mistakes.

Under this section Authority charge Everyone who named,without any Enquiry,they jail old Aged parents of husband, Full pregenent sisters of husband, and also breast fed children of her coz they cann`t seperate when mother was falsly charged in 498a. it is not a law to protect women but harass more innocent women to protect one women.

The Dowry Prohibition Act, was enacted with the intention of protecting wives from marital violence, abuse and extortionist dowry demands, however, the actual implementation of these laws has left a bitter trail of disappointment, anger and resentment in its wake, among the affected families

The truth is, that there were adequate provisions in the IPC Sections 323, 324, 325 and 326 for use against anyone who assaults a woman or causes her injury. The Indian Penal Code was amended twice during the 1980s - first in 1983 and again in 1986 - to define special categories of crimes dealing with marital violence and abuse In 1983, Section 498A of the IPC defined a new cognizable offence, namely, "cruelty by husband or relatives of husband". This means that under this law the police have no option but to take action, once such a complaint is registered by the victim or any of her relatives. It prescribes imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and also includes a fine. The definition of cruelty is not just confined to causing grave injury, bodily harm, or danger to life, limb or physical health, but also includes mental health, harassment and emotional torture through verbal abuse. This law takes particular cognisance of harassment, where it occurs with a view to coercing the wife, or any person related to her, to meet any unlawful demand regarding any property or valuable security, or occurs on account of failure by her, or any person related to her, to meet such a demand.

During the same period, two amendments to the Dowry Prohibition Act of 1961, enacted in 1984 and 1986, made dowry giving and receiving a cognizable offence. Even in this case, where a person is prosecuted for taking or abetting dowry, or for demanding dowry, the burden of proof that he had not committed the offence was placed on the accused. However, no punitive provisions were added for those making false allegations or exaggerated claims. There is, of course, the law against perjury (lying on oath). But in India, the courts expect people to prevaricate and lawyers routinely encourage people to make false claims because such stratagems are assumed to be part of the legal game in India. Therefore, the law against perjury has hardly ever been invoked in India. Section 406, to be invoked by the woman to file cases against her husband and in-laws for retrieval of her dowry prescribes imprisonment of upto three years for criminal breach of trust. Often, highly exaggerated or bogus claims are made by unscrupulous families who demand the return of more than was given as 'stridhan', using the draconian sections 498A and section 406 of the IPC as a bargaining tool.

Furthermore, another Section 304B was added to the IPC to deal with yet another new category of crime called "dowry death". This section states that if the death of a woman is caused by burns or bodily injury, or occurs under abnormal circumstances, within seven years of her marriage and it is shown that just prior to her death she was subjected to cruelty by her husband or any relative of her husband, in connection with any demand for dowry, such a death would be called a "dowry death", and the husband or relative would would be deemed to have caused her death. The burden of proof is shifted to the accused party. The basic spirit of Indian jurisprudence is that a person is presumed innocent till proven guilty. However, in all these cases the person is assumed guilty till proven innocent.

The person held guilty of a "dowry death" shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than seven years but which may extend to imprisonment for life. By inserting a new section 113B in the Indian Evidence Act, the lawmakers stipulated that in cases that get registered by the police as those of "dowry death", the court shall presume that the accused is guilty unless he can prove otherwise.

This is understandable in cases of death because the unnatural demise of a woman through suicide or murder is in itself proof that something was seriously wrong in the marriage. But problems arise when the same presumption applies to cases of domestic discord where the underlying cause of conflict is not necessarily the husband's violence, abuse or economic demands but due to the couple's inability to get along with each other.

The law was recast, heavily weighted in the woman's favour, on the assumption that only genuinely aggrieved women would come forward to lodge complaints and that they would invariably tell the truth. In the process, however, the whole concept of due process of law had been overturned in these legal provisions dealing with domestic violence With the police as well as lawyers encouraging female complainants to use this as a necessary ploy to implicate their marital families, making them believe that their complaint will not be taken seriously otherwise. It has become a distinct trend to include dowry demands in every complaint of domestic discord or cruelty, even when dowry was not an issue at all. This has created an erroneous impression that all of the violence in Indian homes is due to a growing greed for more dowry.

This tendency has received a further fillip with the enactment of 498 A, mentioning dowry demands seems to have become a common ritual in virtually all cases registered with the police or filed in court, misusing the provisions of sections 498A and 406. Even members of many women's organisations themselves acknowledge such abuse. Things have come to this pass, not just due to police and judicial corruption/apathy but also because the laws, as they are currently framed, lend themselves to easy abuse.

All these amendments placed draconian powers in the hands of the police without adequate safeguards against the irresponsibility of the enforcement machinery. There are any number of cases coming to light where Section 498A has been used mainly as an instrument of blackmail. It lends itself to easy misuse as a tool for wreaking vengeance on entire families, because, under this section, it is available to the police to arrest anyone a married woman names as a tormentor in her complaint, as "cruelty" in marriage has been made a non-bailable offence. Thereafter, bail in such cases has been denied as a basic right.

This law has lent itself to gross abuse, because arresting and putting a person in jail, even before the trial has begun, amounts to pre-judging and punishing the accused without due process. Although a preliminary investigation is required after the registration of the F.I.R, in practice such complaints are registered, whether the charges are proved valid or not, and arrest warrants issued, without determining whether the concerned family is actually abusive, or they have been falsely implicated. Our laws do not recognise the possibility of daughters-in-law maltreating old in-laws or other vulnerable members of their husband's family.

There are any number of cases where the problem is mutual maladjustment of the couple rather than abuse by the entire joint family. However, a host of relatives, including elderly parents, who are not necessarily the cause of maladjustment, have all been arrested and put in jail for varying lengths of time before the trial begins. There have been several cases where judges have refused bail unless the accused family deposits a certain sum of money in the complainant's name as a precondition to the grant of bail.

There have been of instances where the main point of discord between the couple was that the wife wanted the husband to leave his parent's home or an old widowed mother and set up a nuclear family. Since the man resisted this move, the wife used 498A as a bargaining device, without success though.
Indeed, there have been many cases where the woman uses the strict provisions of 498A in the hope of enhancing her bargaining position vis a vis her husband and in-laws. Her lawyers often encourage her in the misguided belief that her husband would be so intimidated that he will be ready to concede all her demands. However, once a family has been sent to jail even for a day, they are so paranoid that they refuse to consider a reconciliation under any circumstances, pushing instead for divorce, then they are in a fight to the finish. Thus, many a woman ends up with a divorce she didn't want and with weaker, rather than strengthened, terms of bargaining.
Often, these highly exaggerated or bogus claims made by unscrupulous wives and her family fail to stand scrutiny and many cases do not go far because the charges are so exaggerated that the cases fall through. In many instances, out-of-court settlements are made, by presenting, with mutual consent, a joint petition/ in the High Court u/s 482 Cr. P.C., using 498A as a bargaining point by the woman's family. But this in itself amounts to using the law as a weapon of intimidation rather than a tool of justice defeating the letter, spirit and purpose of the law depriving the truly deserving cases of her legitimate dues....
This Law no longer support Age old indian traditions, and marital harmony or solve the Problems of Marriage,than breaking it.
Please support our cause to SAVE Indian Families, institute of sacred Marriage and Our Society.

JAI HIND.

I am a 29 years old man and also a victim of 498A and 125 crpc, this is really a ridicules law just not to save womens rights but dignity it is a law to make a man feel insecure after being married, to make a man feel bound and dependent. this is really a big mistake of law makers to spoil the culture as well as humanity and joint families.

This Law has to be ammended asap to save our Indian culture

The sternest retribution needs to be meted out to 498a wives and families by the legal system for 1. perjury and defamation, 2. clogging up the already burdened legal system with false cases, 3. cruelty and mental torture to spouses, relatives, elders, often without the financial means or physical ability to sustain the traumatic exposure to the legal system.

I extend my full support to the cause. The law has taken away the breathing space of males and has become a convenient tools for wives to extract money. Gone are the days when majority of people used to ask for dowry for the females who were not educated. Most of the urban girls are educated enough and the families also don't support dowry. But any marital discord, even due to infidelity by wife is booked under 498A. This is a very sad state of affair. The government should abolish this law immediately and should make a law which should bring equality for both sides.

These law should be made gender neutral. Both men and women should have to be considered equal in the eyes of law. Due to this biased law in almost all of the cases, wives are using these tools and putting false claims of dowry to satisfy there ego,attitude and to fill thier pockets and unnecessary demands. Not only the boy but thier family members including MILs & SILs are suffering and even old age peoples have been sent to jails and to face trials in the court without any proper investigation.< br>A lot of changes required in these biased law as it coming as LEGAL TERORRISM and that day is not far when our country has to face another groups of victims of these biased law turning into naxalities..... . to fight this LEGAL TERORISM

Dowry laws need an immediate revision without further delay. If a lady makes a false complaint, she involves minimum 02 more ladies(in-laws' side) in criminal cases.That means females are involving more and more females. Jails are getting crowded day by day due to such false complaints. Even judges are convinced but are helpless due to already laid down laws. Law commission should revive the same in the light of today's scenario.

This draconian law is misused and the facts speaks for themselves. Every Indian whether male or female need to have equal rights and no law can unjustly favor any one side. The police needs to be instructed to pursue such cases only after proper investigation. Very stict action needs to be taken for people who misuse this law.

I fully support the movement because here we are dealing with the shattered individuals and families and not with the strong and powerful terorists. Our Law is 'harsh/stick' on thoes who obeys and 'soft/carrot' on thoes who don't obeys.
Matri monial Law should be bailable and non-cogniziable . Arrest shall be made to only spouse and not to the whole family and that should be after proper hearing and investigation.

I am a victim of 498A. I was arrested for 3days and i got suspended from Govt. service. My wife couldnt live with me and had falsely framed this case on my entire family. Luckily I succeded in getting Anticipatory Bail for my aged and sick parents along with brother and sister in law after a months hide out. My side lawyer tried his level best to prolong the anticipatory bail process giving way for the police to arrest my family but his attempts failed. The b**** i married sent a letter to Honourable President of India and that letter was considered and an enquiry was ordered on me as i am a government servent. She had also sent letters to my brothers office and influenced the higher ups and he was suspended for 18 days for the cause as he had not informed his office that his name was there in FIR. He was not arrested but was punished mercilessly. My entire family's name had gone to dogs. That b**** had contacted each and every relative of mine and wrongly propagated about our family that we are harassing her and demanding extra dowry. The ladies false cry and falling on legs of relatives and begging them to counsil me to take her back had given a meaning that i had thrown her out. In the back drop she challenged me that me and my entire family shall be behind bars and on the road. I had spent around 3 lakhs rupees uptill now. All my hard earned earnings are being wasted for train journeys and court procedings. In future, the Hindu marriages should be banned and together living should be encouraged as these ladies are misusing the law. God had saved me by giving the mood to the honourable judge to grant my divorce on mental cruelty grounds. I had provided all that she asked and inturn she ditched me. She suspected my fidelity with all the women at work place. She had not provided food to me and didnt attend any of the house hold works and she is damn a house wife all the time sleeping and becoming fat. All the above she want me to cut relations with my parents who are old and they had forgone many of their happiness for my comfort and provided me with high class education, fulfilled my luxuries and odd. Today when i look back and see what i gave them is only pain by marrying this educated cultureless and mannerless brute. What if the same thing happens to her aged parents? She n her parents never thinks. They act innocent to society and get sympathy from one and all. My advice to all my brothers, during marriage please do take an agreement that you had not taken any dowry and mention the gifts received on a stamp paper.

I am also one of the victim of 498a. This law, instead of protecting the women, is in favour of breaking the family bond. The law should be modified so that at last it should provide ways to avoid divorce. It should ensure the harmony of family life should not be spoiled.

Women misuses provision of law little but their lawyers misuses much the process of court for only some coins and fees for survival of his own family, breaking others family. women do not write complaint the lawyer writs complaint. Court at once realizes that complaint is drafted by "legally trained mind" and is false but, do not help "innocents ". Amendment requires "complaina nt be examined through lie detector test or narcho test even without her consent".

I HAVE BEEN FALSELY IMPLICATED IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASE ON 19TH MAY, 2009. MY WIFE STAYED WITH ME FOR 37 DAYS ONLY AND LEFT, AND WAITED FOR ONE MONTH AND FILED FALSE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASE. THEN SHE SENT HER ADVOCATE AND DEMANDED MUTUAL CONSENT DIVORCE AND LOT OF MONEY WHICH WE COULD NOT GIVE. SO SHE THREATENED TO FILE 498A IF ADEQUATE MONEY IS NOT GIVEN. WE TOLD THAT WE CANNOT PAY SO MUCH MONEY. SO WE INSISTED THAT WE WILL DO HEARING OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASE AND GO FOR TRIAL. SHE RECEIVED HER FIRST INTERIM ON JANUARY 2010, AND THEN FILED FALSE 498A/406 AND TOOK HER STRIDHAN ARTICLES AWAY. I AM BEING REPEATEDLY HARRASSED LIKE THIS, AND THE POLICE TOLD ME THAT THEY WRITE THE POLICE CASE DOCUMENT ACCORDING TO MY WIFE'S STATEMENT. I AM BEING REPEATEDLY HARASSED LIKE THIS BECAUSE WE ARE POOR AND CANNOT PAY UP AS MUCH MONEY AS MY WIFE DEMANDS.

Hi,

I know this topic is old and I am another victim added to the list, however the sad fact of

the life is that I've been set. My wife has filed a fake case against me & my family for

demandi ng dowry. Their were differences between me & my wife, and she has taken this route

to show her revenge. Request for a precautionary checklist to save me & my family members

from the turmoil.
