Women's rights in India
India has made several laws to protect the rights of women in the country. However, like any other law, these too can be bent or broken and taken advantage of by unscrupulous individuals. Money and muscle power also play a role in all this.
THE GOVERNMENT of India has formulated many laws to protect the rights of women who are being ill-treated by their husbands and in-laws. But how many of these laws really help women gain custody of their children and protect their property? The woman’s husband and in-laws usually claim all the wealth and property and also the custody of the child.

At the end of the day, everything depends on the verdict of the judge. In case the lady is able to appoint an influential advocate, she may win the case, but this rarely happens. Nowadays, money and muscle power are used to obtain almost anything one desires.
Wealthy individuals get away with almost everything; with no questions being asked. There are some women who even use these laws to their advantage and get all that they want from the husband and his family. Again, this also depends on the verdict of the judge. If the verdict is passed in favour of the wrong individual, an appeal has to be made again in a higher court and more money has to be spent.
In such a case, it is suggested that more judges from different parts of the country and from different religious backgrounds be appointed, so as to give the individuals a fair hearing and good judgment. This will also make it possible to reach a judgment without any delays.
Further suggestions:
- There should be other professionals involved when a judgment is being passed on either one of the individuals; a single judge dispensing justice seems insufficient.
- Most of the victims have to suffer due to uncalled-for delays in the passing of the judgment. The process is very slow and the culprits are given time to fabricate evidence and bring in new witnesses. This should be amended.
- All cases should be dealt with in the lower courts. The client should be able to appeal for, and receive judgment on, wealth and property partitioning in the lower court in a maximum of 5-6 hearings.
We look forward to a good procedure so as to give every individual the right to good judgment in less time.

Women should learn to bring up their children with love and affection and not make a fuss of the male children in their family. Treat your daughters as equals with your son's and this will help our nation at large. Women are the one's who go for abortion and get rid of the female fetus and blame their husbands for not wanting a girl child. Why should a lady do that to her own child? Husbands are always held responsible for all the wives wrong doings. When women are asked to fill water at the water tap in a local area they end up pulling each others hair. First unit should prevail among women.
"All women are good and not all men bad" There are some women who take revenge on their husbands due to some family problem by not letting their husbands have sex with them. believe me this is not a joke.
your sisters
Leave the country there is no help

Respected Madam,
Firstly i would like to beg apology for writing to you and consuming
precious time of yours.But i couldn't control myself and thought of sharing
my personal views with you.
The latest updates of bollywood says that they are going to potray a
girl full nude,do you think they are doing justice to our womenhood. I
am ashamed of being a women now,i have lost all my self respect
and dignity. Our country has no more holded its culture,we have
become so much of westernised that we prefer being nude in the
television and allow people to enjoy at us.I barely find girls wearing
cloths in TV and magazine.Where are our ethics and morals?Someone
has to take the initiative and put a fullstop to this virtual sexual harassment.
I feel raped from within when girls fully naked pose in front of the TV
Please look through the matter,as you are the voice of our feelings.
With full hope and regards

I got married in April 2011 and my problem is that i have always believed my husband but he has not kept any one of his promises....till date he has not informed his mother that we are married. I want to go home but his only reaction is to say that his mother will not accept me. I am right now living in a school quater and he comes every alternate night...and in these few months of our marriage he has threathened to leave me five time and has walked out on me. He comes back after 10 sometimes 15 days.....I am fed up with living like this....i need advise....i donot want to live with him this way.....and by the way he does not support me financially at all.

I got married last 3 yrs & having 1 son who is 2yrs but I am problem with my in laws because she cause a fighting between my husband & me & in that my husband wants to live me he tells me that I should my child which I will not. Sister in laws who are married also comes to our house every day which is a very difficult situation for because because when I go home from work they start passing a wrong comments which I am not adjustable to. I told my husband to buy a new house but that also he is not ready bez he thinks that I am seperating him from his family which I really dont want too. I am just telling him to put me seperate from your family members. He beats me fights with every two days. Doesnt want my family memers to come & see me or my son. He dont even give me the money to after my child. Please give me suggestion what I should do.

I regret to state that most of our judges themselves are corrupt. All you need to do is work and try to be independent and support your child by yourself.

Myself & my 2 year old child is also suffering from this situation, but we are not getting justice even in High Court. Judge is saying In Laws will pay rent for your accomodation. but i can's live on rent with minor child without husband.

No courts do not get into personal problem unless you want to take a divorce. It is better for your to seek help from your advocate on this matter.

Caste, creed, horoscope, drowy, motherinlaws, fatherinlaws, husbands, attribute to newly married ladies problems. Most often even men under go problems with their inlaws.. Especially arranged marriages create problems.

i have seen women suffering from domestic violence.but it takes great courage to fight against it.u have to fight whole society not one person who is called your husband.but woman means Shakti do not suffer.
yamini

Pradnya
I think the best thing to do here is to fight back...
I have similar story to share Our maid Shanta has been my support system for more than ten years. She has practically raised me ?? played with me, cooked my favourite dishes and even nursed me when I was not keeping well. I really owe her a lot. So when one day I found her weeping, I figured out her story which she had never mentioned to me before. That she was being verbally and physically abused by her husband. One keeps hearing these stories about women all the time but when Shanta narrated hers to me, it really shook me. I felt that I ought to do something for her and other people who are faced with similar abusive situations. I found out a NGO from the Jaago Re website that takes up cases on behalf of people like Shanta and wins them back their rights. Not only that, being a law student myself, I decided to register myself on the site with that NGO and volunteer 3 hours a week for it. I have decided that Shanta will get justice and she will not have to take her husband abuse lying down!?
surekha arora
i am married for 10 years and since then, i have face many problems in my life and my husband tortures my mentally and physically and he beats me very cruely now i am fed up and i have 2 kids, one is 9 year old and second is 10 year old, and i want protection of them, so please advise me what i should do, i really want to seperate from that person and live with her both of children, please give me suggestion in my favor and my kids also
alister1967
Do you think your parents will allow you to marry her. You are responsible for her once you take her to be your lawful wife. Think about it seriously because if your parent are against you marrying her then you definitely will have a tough time ahead. Do you have a decent job with a good salary package to take care of your to be wife? Are you sure that you have feeling for her? Make sure that you definitely love her with all your heart before taking this important step in your life.
