[This article is based on the initial draft of the bill]
This morning India woke up to a devastating news, probably the most devastating and depressing news than the 2012 Delhi incident. This is because the new Marriage Law Amendment Bill 2010 is accepted by the cabinet committee. This proposal to change our marriage laws makes every Indian family vulnerable to extortion and misfortune. This amendment states that on divorce any wife will get a share in her husband’s property – not only the property that is acquired after marriage but the property that is acquired before marriage including the inherited or shared one.
There is a slight change in this new amendment from the original bill introduced in 2010. Earlier it was said that equal share in matrimonial assets of the husband will be given to the wife. The matrimonial assets were not defined properly. Different men’s rights groups demanded clarification of matrimonial assets and the clarification came now, that ‘matrimonial asset’ includes even inherited assets (movable and non-movable assets) and shared property of the husband.
It is unfortunate for India that the nation had to accept all man-hating laws in the name of women empowerment for years. This new section of marriage law amendment is set to make divorces easy so that the couples don’t have to take court rounds for divorce. But at the face value even though it looks like a good initiative, reading the provisions of this act will make it clear that it is extremely sexist and male hating law.
Under this proposed act all Indian marriages done through Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act comes under its purview if it becomes a law. All it needs is a petition from either party in marriage for irretrievable breakdown of a marriage. A separation of three years between the couple is needed to enforce such a decree.
If a husband files a divorce under this act, the proposed act empowers the wife to oppose divorce at any time on the grave financial ground. Unless 50% of husband’s property (including inherited or shared property, property in the joint name) is given to the wife, the husband will not get a divorce.
The wife’s behavior in the marriage is not considered. No matter how cruel the wife had been, how many relations did she have, no matter what was her conduct in the marriage, how much property did she or her parents have or no matter how poor the husband is, the wife will still get a share in husband’s property. On the contrary, the husband will not get any share of the wife’s property no matter how wealthy she is. This is extremely biased legislation that will completely work against any man marrying under either Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act.
On the contrary, the husband is not empowered to oppose the divorce filed by the wife under this. So any wife can file for divorce at any point in time and get away with husband’s property. We already see how even educated, adulterous and working women get maintenance today; tomorrow they will get 50% of husband’s property, too.
What is even more dangerous is that if the husband has dependent parents and their ancestral property and somehow he got into a bad girl or a bad marriage, he will end up giving away his property to that girl for no fault of his. Unless this proposed legislation wants to make marriage a crime for Indian men and the divorce under IrBM is the price he pays for that crime.
The new amendment also clearly proposes that if the property is in joint name and can’t be divided then the husband will have to pay money in lieu of the property.
If we look at the similar laws in other countries we will know in all countries such property division is only on property acquired after marriage and where both the partners have equal contribution. No gifts etc included in consideration of property calculation before dividing them. But only in India, there is no mention of wife’s contribution. There is no mention of tenure of marriage which is another important parameter in property division in all developed countries. So now a wife can get husband’s property even for a few days of marriage. She can deny the husband any conjugal rights, have no moral standards, stay in her parents’ house and still gets heavily compensated for divorce.
Over the years different men’s rights groups are demanding gender-neutral laws and gender justice for men. But we have seen how the crime against women is always highlighted and made only burning issue in India. “Men’s suicide” which is a far bigger issue than rape in India has never caught any attention. We have seen how men in India were proactive in giving women more rights and more safety. But nothing was enough for women groups. They kept on claiming more rights no matter HOW MUCH they have got. We have never seen people raising their voice against atrocities against men in the country barring only a few men’s rights groups.
This legislation will make sure that our divorce rate increases, more men commit suicide or commit murder of their wives. So far our divorces used to be peaceful and in some cases quick too (Mutual consent (MCD)). But now India will see a different era altogether. When women are given 50% share in husband’s property why should anyone agree to MCD? No matter what is the conduct of the wife had been, the husband pays up heavily for their marriage for no fault of his.
India has already seen degrading moral values where more and more people are getting into multiple sexual relations. Adultery has become very common in India. With this kind of biased legislation in place, men in India will surely stop all marriages.
Now live – in relation may seem to be the only alternative to this but in those relations as well women do not have any set responsibility or conduct. Women still get maintenance from their live-in boyfriends under domestic violence act. Their children get maintenance from him. Also, any such relation going sour will invite rape charges against the man. Punishment for rape is even more stringent today.
So, all forms of peaceful relations are denied for Indian men today. They are either forced to commit a crime or commit suicide for no fault of theirs. Parents in India who has boys will see how their dreams turning into a nightmare as the day passes. No matter what education one gives to one’s son, he will never get respect from society because – for so many years we have only projected ‘Respect Women’ theory as if men in the country need no respect. As a result, we get this kind of legislation for raping men legally and financially.
Today the number of husbands who commit suicide every year compared to married women is double due to already existing biased laws. Unfortunately, no one including men in this country recognizes this issue. Leading women leaders openly proclaim these suicides as merely ‘farmer suicide’. In a country where a crime is not even recognized as a crime because of no coverage from mainstream media, how can any man expect justice?
As a nation, if we don’t protest against these atrocities in all forums, if we don’t come forward to make such laws gender neutral, we will only see screwed up relations and increasing suicide among men. Thus if implemented in this form, Marriage Law Amendment will lead to enormous frustration, increased drug abuse, increased male and female prostitution, extortion in the name of sex, increased violent crimes and a situation of social anarchy. This is sure to act as a death warrant for this country.

y are u not talking about gender equality when gals leave their family, parents alone and come to the guys family, take care of his parents. Even if she is working, she has to do all house-hold chores? When groom’s family demand cash n jewel, right from marriage hall booking to catering it comes on gal’s dad. Laws are enacted for a society as a whole not for customization of every family or household… our society had so many social evils against woman. A widow’s remarriage was not socially acceptable. A girl from lower middle class/ middle class family cannot live peacefully in this society if she gets divorce. Where society treats men and women equal? Do u see women wolf-whistling at men on the road?How many sisters education was stopped for giving education to their brothers.There were so many harassments, murders, rapes committed on woman in this society. this is a social issue. If some X woman takes the law in hand and files a false case against a man it doesnt mean the law is bad. Any law can be misused.It doesnt mean the law has to be withdrawn, what is that u want that dowry laws to be withdrawn? and women getting burnt and killed in the name of dowry? There are several unfair laws against women too, if a husband has relationship with someother woman, wife cant do anything about it unless her husband marries that other woman. Marital rape is not even recognized as crime neither by the society nor by the law. There was a case discussed in news channel where husband raped his wife infront of his son and the son took the mother to national women’s commission where court ruled the husband cant be punished. There was a case where a 19 year old gal got pregnant in love affair and she filed a case against the guy, but the judge said the gal is immoral as if the guy is golden character, in this case only gal gets termed as immoral and society stamps her as characterless. Who is going to take care of the child now?the guy will go and enjoy with some other gal but the gal has to bear the child and bring him up in life at such tender age of 19. Do u think the society and men are fair on woman? No, only law can equal the score and give strength to women, If not for these laws by now women population would have been either dead or living a life of a hell.. Not that now everything has changed but atleast women have the confidence that law will help them…there are many more laws like Untouchability laws which are similiar to the laws which power women, no one questions the biasedness of the Untouchability laws as society has created the bias and injustice to dalits which law tries to negate and bring balance in the society. If any individual man got affected by a false complaint obviously the case is going to be heard in court and the man can provide proof from his side. Laws are not customizable. if there is a law it doesnt mean that man will be imprisoned without even hearing from his side, the case will anyhow go to court. But u men want the law itself to be abolished instead of fighting for a law to be enacted against women misusing the laws which was enacted for their safety…

Subject: Pre-marital & inherited property is not Marital Property, Hence must not be Divided during Divorce
The assumption made by those supporting this amendment is that the wife will not on her own seek divorce. This may be applicable for most ladies of my mothers generation. The current generation of girls (in my wifes age category) do not value marriage as an institution at all. Within six months of our marriage she has
filed a false 498a, DV etc and tried to extort money from us using it. For girls/wifes like her who value money more than family ties and
system these amendments would just be another option to extort money from innocent people like me.
So it should be vehemently opposed by all of us.As an association we should garner more media attention on the ills of this amendment by highlightingmisuse of 498a, DV act as an instance which indicates the mindset of girls/wifes of this generation.

It is quite fair to give divorced wife a share in husband’s property.Not only immovable assets but fixed deposits,shares,gold,movable assets,amount incurred for the marriage by brides father have to be paid by the husband.Also there should be a provision to girls to claim the legal expenses from Husband and their parents.Every girl has to be paid 50% of the salary of the husband in case of divorce as a part of maintenance. If Husband is a businessman , then the income is variable,so the variable profit every month has to be declared and 50 % share has to be given to divorced wife.

@ramya, What a bitch/pussy you are. Your comment only shows that you are attention seeker. Why should a Wife get 50% from Husband ? Women are “equal” to Men, right ? so Why not a Husband get 50% of his Wife marital property ? Why not a Husband get back ALL gifts/items/clothes/shopping(s) that he gave to his Wife ?
[Whatever below applies to only “your” kind of women who are suffering with inherent inferiority complex, are unable to digest the reality, are selfish, cunning, arrogant, manipulative and are after EASY MONEY and PLEASURE from MEN]
Is the Wife did any favor to Husband by being his Wife ? NO. She just want “someone” to provide her Food, Shelter, Healthcare and to satisfy her SEXUAL desires, lust and fantasies.
Is the Wife doing any favor by cooking, cleaning and other stuff? NO. Because she cannot earn a decent living and provide for the Husband, She is just doing/playing her “role” in a relationship. The relationship that she longed for, that she wanted and that she entered with her own decision. NO one forced her into that !
Is the Wife “giving” SEX to her Husband. NO. She is “getting” SEX from her Husband and he is “getting” SEX from his Wife. The Wife gets Enjoyment, Pleasure, Satisfaction, Relaxation and other Health benefits (feel good hormones !) and same the case with Husband. Nobody is doing any “FAVOR”. Wife equally getting her SHARE in everything, period.
I can go on and on BUT unfortunately, as long as there are Societal & Legal Double Standards favoring a specific gender, things will remain the same. BUT again, MEN are waking up because we are being abused in every aspect of LIFE.
How on the earth your kind of women even forget the realities ? Women should find themselves lucky to be able to “effortlessly” live and bask on the “effort, hard work and success” of MEN, ever since the evolution began.

Hi veedu,
you are thinking like cooking and taking care of kids is everything in marriage. Let us see whether bearing child and providing food for them is a natural responsibility or men forcing women to do so?. Periods, pregnancy, post -pregnancy breastfeeding ..etc some how nature has given more responsibility to female. It is not only in humans in all species female has some additional responsibilities. Do not blame men for that. You can observe some species around you like hen , cow..etc. When they have kids they will only take care. They don’t blame father. I agree. Wife doesn’t need to take care of husband and parents of husband if she feels like no to do so. There is no law which forces wife for this. If wife wants to do it then she should do voluntarily.
1.You have mentioned few points supporting women. You said men get free cook, maid after marriage. There is no law which says woman should do it. It is up to her whether she wants to follow tradition or not. And men also be part of household things like marketing, bringing needy things to home, any repair work of household items, providing good education to children, bringing children from school…etc. Some more things which can not be explained.
2. You have mentioned another point saying men’s body does not affect from sex. Only women’s body will affect. Private parts which are needed to have sex are designed by nature not by men. So do not blame men for that. Ask nature.
3. If any woman is harassed by dowry then there are bunch of laws to punish the people who are harassing her. if taking money from women is dowry, then what do you call taking money from men after divorce?
4. You have mentioned that society is not treating men and women same. Bring awareness. Try to fight for equality. Equality does not come with anti male law. Question yourself whether nature treating men and women same? Because for men sex is more of pleasure aspect. But for women it is associated with many other responsibilities like pregnancy..etc. Again ask nature why it created such system. Do not try to blame men for every thing.
5. Marital rape is a physical and mental violence against wife. So it is a crime. If provided then law will definitely punish the husband.
None of the above are no way related to giving 50% money to wife after divorce.

Do not blame men for that. You can observe some species around you like hen , cow..etc. When they have kids they will only take care. They don’t blame father. I agree. Wife doesn’t need to take care of husband and parents of husband if she feels like no to do so. There is no law which forces wife for this. If wife wants to do it then she should do voluntarily.
1.You have mentioned few points supporting women. You said men get free cook, maid after marriage. There is no law which says woman should do it. It is up to her whether she wants to follow tradition or not. And men also be part of household things like marketing, bringing needy things to home, any repair work of household items, providing good education to children, bringing children from school…etc. Some more things which can not be explained.
2. You have mentioned another point saying men’s body does not affect from sex. Only women’s body will affect. Private parts which are needed to have sex are designed by nature not by men. So do not blame men for that. Ask nature.
3. If any woman is harassed by dowry then there are bunch of laws to punish the people who are harassing her. if taking money from women is dowry, then what do you call taking money from men after divorce?
4. You have mentioned that society is not treating men and women same. Bring awareness. Try to fight for equality. Equality does not come with anti male law. Question yourself whether nature treating men and women same? Because for men sex is more of pleasure aspect. But for women it is associated with many other responsibilities like pregnancy..etc. Again ask nature why it created such system. Do not try to blame men for every thing.
5. Marital rape is a physical and mental violence against wife. So it is a crime. If provided then law will definitely punish the husband.
None of the above are no way related to giving 50% money to wife after divorce.

The problem resulting in such unfair legislations is that feminism or women’s awareness of it has taken a wrong direction. In almost any communal, demographic, discrimination related affairs, laws are passed to pander to the demographic, in this case women, by means of appeasement or affirmative discrimination. Indian women are not politically aware or active enough to reject appeasement, and will smugly accept them when discrimination acts in its favor. When the government creates separate lines or queues at airports for women, issues special financial awards, has special bus lines dedicated to them or special women only tax breaks, women sort of take and enjoy it. UNFAIRNESS IS UNFAIR and when there is unfairness the feelings associated with them go around in society. If Indian women understood equality and opposed all unfair laws, then laws would be passed with equality in mind with gender neutral wording. A characteristic of US 2nd wave feminism was to reject stranger male gallantry and chivalry. Meaning a man should not have to do things like hold the door open, bend take his hat of for a women to enter. Its an unneeded benefit and signals as though the woman is different or incapable of doing so herself. Today the norm is that both men and women are courteous to each other and all try to hold the door for one who is just immediately behind them regardless of gender. men engage in customary gallantries with only those dear to them. There is such a thing as Unfairness to men, or asymmetric or unrealistic expectations of men, and it is within the ambit of feminism to discuss, understand, overcome them and stand for men’s rights as well knowing that no system can hold steady with unfairness. This is not a fault of politicians, but a fault at the electorate level and the representatives on the women’s commission or family affairs. There is blackmail, emotional torture to the men and their families via the dowry law, harassment laws when complaints are entertained without evidence.
Rape every one of us is indirectly responsible because it is a symptom of a society that believes in morality, who avoided dating when we were young, looked differently at those who chose to date, and believed that the arranged marriage was tradition and righteous. Lot of women and men still believe in morality, and as of late independent women are doing horrible things in marriage including leaving it sexless. Women/Men lose respect when sexuality is monetized whether within marriage or outside, because monetization undermines the nature of values needed for of permanent companionship. It is wrong for a women to marry for male provisioning and just as much as she expects to have the choice to keep to her career she should be willing to let her male to not have to work if he doesn’t want to, this is if her own income is very good. Domestic chores are a shared responsibility, and expenses should be shared proportionate to income. Sexuality from woman to man or man to woman must be endorsed as the mechanism men and women were made and the full-fillment of our relationship with each other. Some of the rapists are married men, and power, control and jealousy are speculated to be reasons. Most women/men in India do not have female/male companions or stuck with a moral spouse without recreational sex, romance or even feelings of primacy (significant other half). There is no emotional maturity, because expression of desire, or affectionate behaviour in public is frowned upon. Arranged marriages are happening in which heterosexual men and women are trapped with less sexual, asexual, or homosexual women in denial. Homosexual relationships and unions need to recognized and also not discriminated against. MORALITY IS THE PROBLEM. Men do not want power or authority, and already know that women can achieve more, earn and be independent if they want to. A relationship is the fomration of kinship not a place for comparisons. Men can be raised by educated mothers/fathers to be affectionate, and grow up to give and want affection back in return. Knowing that female sexual fullfill-ment exists men are repulsed with the idea of you-can-have-my-body-sex, or non-consented sex. Domestic rape is also also repugnant. The yield here on the women’s side is that women have to be more sexual and bring out feminine sexual energy to keep ones parter and the society at large stable. Women hold half the responsibility to Make sex happen at frequency needed for contentment. Lingerie stores like Victoria secrets are not the problem and perhaps often pointed to by less sexual people in moral social circles or in power. Valentines day is not the corruption of Indian values but its liberation from neo-moralistic Indian society. While he has to be more affectionate, thoughtful and romantic, She has got to make her mind and body feel sexual, be receptive to her partner and not indulge in romances that don’t involve a splurge of money. Rapes are an unfortunate act of weakly willed or ill minded individuals who are symptons of a unwell society subject to a cruelty of morality that is at large imposed onto most of society by itself. Having unfair marriage laws passed on and already unfair marriage system, is making this a very dangerous. Neo-captitalism and rapid wealth rise and materialistic views are also compounding the problem. Loveless marriages can boil into rages, anger and acts of desperation that easy dissolution, harrassment-less is necessary.
