minority appeasement is a curse on democracyBy: pendyala | Friday , 6 Nov '09 10:56:04 AM Reply | Forward If a child wants something not good for him, will the parents concede? Similarly, women organizations' shallow, immature demands cannot be applied to women's own detriment. As the news item indicates, these laws have destroyed many homes for no good reason. It is high time that these senseless draconian laws are revoked.
Legal TerrorismBy: Tyagi | Friday , 6 Nov '09 7:20:32 AM Reply | Forward 498A= Legal Extortion and Terrorism unleashed by a bevy of corrupt police, lawyers, judges and feminist terror organisations that spread terror though familes and ultimately break them apart. This can not continue!
SHAME ON MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS!!!!!By: Prassoon Suryadas | Thursday , 5 Nov '09 21:16:32 PM Reply | Forward By saying "women organisations are not allowing" to ammend the LAWS MHA has tarnished the glory of democracy and the Parliament. Laws are not made by any organisation be it women's or men's. If Parliament recognise the flaws it does not have the power to repeal the laws why are they clinging on to their own chairs? Pink chaddi pahano oru tabha ho jao SHAME ON YOU, CONGRESS!!!!
Be Careful Corrupt OfficersBy: Victim of DV | Wednesday , 4 Nov '09 19:57:09 PM Reply | Forward these ppl like NCW, Girija Vyas, Brinda Karat, look at their families, how many daughters does renuka chaudhry have, how many divorced their husbands? it is clear these terrorists in legal uniform are a threat to any innocent male. right now i see suicides by males. the flip side could be they could start taking law into their own hands like the tribals in FATA. there wont be enough space for all these corrupt judges, lawyers to hide on gravy train for that train could make them stcik long enough to get a hole in the head, yeah the middle finger for 498a and its supporters!
Monitoring and Controlling of this advisoryBy: Aamele | Wednesday , 4 Nov '09 8:50:36 AM Reply | Forward Now that an advisory has been circulated - it would be interesting if the MHA can monitor the progress of their advisories. Wonder if they are at all serious about it. Time will tell what their intentions are and whom they are trying to appease. Will it be cruel joke or a cruel joke by the MHA 6 months from now.
CRPC 41 Amendments and 498a RacketBy: Sam | Wednesday , 4 Nov '09 1:37:29 AM Reply | Forward Stopping illegal arrests in 498a cases! Does anyone ever believe it is going to happen? There are too many parasitic vested interests sucking the blood of innocent civilians. Would these leeches ever give up the gravy train of 498a? Easy money everywhere - bail applications, kickbacks to corrupt judges, colluding and corrupt lawyers sucking money from both sides, easy tools of extortion for the disgruntled women and their families and so on! But at whose expense all this pyramid scheme is built? - The hapless male for the simple crime of marrying an unscrupulous termagant! How the hell do you expect a simple, single civilian to fight this monstrosity? No wonder the suicide numbers of males are skyrocketing. Shame on the Government for dropping the crpc 41 amendments. These emperors in MHA have no clothes. They think no one noticed that they caved into the pressure of the unethical lawyer lobby. SHAME on MHA!
Agends of MHA wants to enforce CrPC without section 41ABy: Suhasini Dutta | Wednesday , 4 Nov '09 1:36:54 AM Reply | Forward This is a total hogwash by the MHA .The MHA has sent this letter and will now quietly enforcing the CrPC amendments without even the 41A amendments in themThe MHA letter to the state governments will not change the law in any way and it is just "advise" and guidelines for arrest and we have had guidelines on arrest for decades and nobody follows them . We do not need reaffirmation of arrest guidelines any more , we need change in the arrest laws period through section 41A of CrPC.We do not want the MHA lollipop we need the real deal and hence we SHOULD WRITEthe letters since they specifically target the MHA's desicion to remove 41Aamendments from the CrPC even after the law commission assented to it .We are demanding that section 41A amendments must be there no mater whats thecase . 41A explicitly will "By Law" stop the arrests and we will accept nothingless than that no matter what
wonderful task doneBy: RANDHIR | Tuesday , 3 Nov '09 23:55:42 PM Reply | Forward Aristotle had said "A female of a species is more dangerous thanthe male" how right he was and it took 60 years for our legal faternity to recognize this
Good move, could be better if the family law itself is changedBy: Hardik Mehta | Tuesday , 3 Nov '09 21:03:00 PM Reply | Forward This is the good move but it could be better if the Family laws itself are changed. There are many loopholes in marital laws which needs to be uniformised. The divorce should be made easy, shared child custody should be given priority, alimony laws should be introduced linking to the length of marriage, thereby making the fairer family laws. Also Gender biased laws should be removed and all the persons should be protected.This laws should be changed according to the time and should be revised every 3 years to see for the misuse. Moreover, the lengthy cases should be shortened. If one of the parties does not want to live with other partner then the government should not be cruel to force them to stay with other person. This is cruelty.
Dear Minister Instead of sending letters amend lawBy: Sandesh | Tuesday , 3 Nov '09 21:00:26 PM Reply | Forward Govt must first amend the stupid laws like 498a, DV etc, which it has created. If the govt is sincere, it should remove Sec 41A of CrPC first. Currently police has lots of powers which it misuses against honest citizens. The current laws are for corrupt people with connections and money. Very few Indians realize that poor laws and procedures is one of the most important problem of the country. God save such a country.
retain 41A not delete it By: Alka Bose | Wednesday , 4 Nov '09 1:21:48 AM Reply | Forward Not remove section 41A , but implement it in CrPC amendments . The 41A amendments actually prevents police from arresting without issuing an notice .
