India boast itself as oldest Civilization and Land of Milk and honey and gave Birth to wise people like Manu, becouse Manu’s Law Codecs are considered as oldest one in the history of the World.
The Indian Legal System is one of the oldest legal systems in the entire history of the world. It has altered as well as drafted over the past few centuries from the legal systems across the world, like Ireland, the United States, Britain, and France. but India took only bad laws from them,not Good one which are fool proof.
The Indian Constitution which came about in 1950 was drafted on the basis of English Common law and incorporating important US court decisions. The Constitution of India guarantees equal rights to all citizens, and prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, caste, and religion; but unfortunately none works other than books.
But todays Law system and the way it works, makes anyone ashamed.
Most of the Laws of India are easily missusable and if you are Women, Politician or have money, can turn into your favor.
All over World other countries are making fool proof laws but India makes it to be misused, abused and exploited. And even if it’s find out, that law is misused, still no one is ready to fix it.
I will not write more about how worst India law system is,its up to you to decide.
just compare Domestic Violence Act of India with MATRIMONIAL HOMES ACT[Ref : http://mynation.net/mhact.htm] of United Kingdom and You will know, what i am barking about.
This is one example, anyone can find such miserable laws in whole law system of India.
Domestic Violence Act, name itself say, its darfted to creat violence in home by terrorising husband or men. it nowhere says if misused, misuser will be punished that makes women to misuse it and harass men.
Its made to break home, not make home.
British MATRIMONIAL HOMES ACT says “spouse” without mentioning sex, so whoever aggrived person can claim justice with one law but DVA of India Specially drafted to Women; to empower Women by disempowring men or instead empower Family. Any blind can see this bias.
