Application to the President of India on the objection to the Proposed “ Marriage Laws

Date : 10-08-2012

To
Hon’ble President of India,
Rashtrapati Bhavan
New Delhi, Pin-110004.

Sub : Main objection to the Proposed “ Marriage Laws....

We had already submitted our objection and suggestions to parliament committee, but the present law minister totally ignore the same and even tamper the original bill even worse by making new amended, so we request either make the law gendesr neutral and respect natural justice or roll back the same immediately as this will became a “ extraction law” than giving any natural justice to people.
  1. The Bill must be gender neutral, if a wife have contribution to husbands property ( movable or immovable), any property made by wife (movable or immovable) also have husbands contribution, so only Even in USA- Txas law the word used “ Spouse” instead of wife or husband, other wise one sided law will create a disharmony, increase of crime, huge litigation in court for property disputes.
  2. The benefit of divorce can’t be equal to married relationship, as the obligation and responsibility after divorce change to either spouse. Even in 2010 China SC also amended the property division law to belongs to the spouse who made it, as such law made havoc in court cases and people started use the marriage as property earning business than love or care to each others.
  3. Proposed Amendment : 13D (1) Where the wife is the respondent to a petition for the dissolution of marriage by a decree of divorce under section 13C, she may oppose the grant of decree on ground that the dissolution of the marriage will result in grave financial hardship to her and that in all circumstances be wrong to dissolve the marriage...
Our View:
Right to oppose should be given to both parties. The word wife to be replaced by the word “ spouse” . The line to be added: The Divorce degree will be awarded only when all other cases against each others had been quashed or withdrawn and in future no cases will be filed against each other spouse. Otherwise the basic purpose of this law to reduce the litigation will be defeated Like.
There are other provisions of maintenance HMA 24/25, CrPC 125,DV Act, adding another provision is duplication and a tool to harass the husband. Rampant misuse of this section to harass the husbands As per 13 C(2), if she is separated for 3 years, she would have already approached the court in case of financial difficulties. Another attempt to extort husbands ( as in 498a and DV Act.)
Our Proposed: “ The respondent to a petition for the dissolution of marriage by a decree of divorce under section 13C, may oppose the grant of a a decre on the ground that the dissolution of the marriage will result in grave financial hardship to them and that it would in all the circumstances be wrong to dissolve the marriage. All cases pending, between the parties would also be quashed before granting divorce under section 13C” .. All case like 498A,DV Act and other litigations should be quashed before the grant of decree.”
  1. Proposed Amendment: 13 F and 28 D: ) Special provisions relating to disposal of property in proceedings under 13 C) Without prejudice to any customs or usage or any other law for the time being in force, in any proceeding under section 13 C, at the time of passing of the degree, the court may on a petition made by wife order that the husband shall pay for her and children as defined in section 13 E, as financial support such gross sum or share in the movable or immovable residential property towards settlement of property rights as the court may deem it to be just and equitable and any such payment shall be secured, if necessary, by change on the immovable residential property of the husbands.
Our View
The word wife and husband to be replaced by spouses which followed by all over world, even in USA-Txas the same is spouse.If this law passed as per above, for example the wife have 1000 crs let it be given by husband also) and husband have only 10 Lakhs,but as per law, her 100 crs can’t be touched, but the husband 10 Lakhs to be divided and given to wife? This is totally injustice and against natural justice.
The property accrued before marriage, either spouse should not have any right, as there is no contribution of other spouse on that, the contribution to be considered only on the property made after marriage and any claim to others property to be allowed if only the marriage obligation is more than 10 years.
So Our Proposed : 13 F and 28D : ( Special provisions relating to disposal of property accrued during subsistence of marriage in proceedings under 13 C).
Without prejudice to any customs or usage or any other law for the time being in force, in any proceeding under section 13 C, at the time of passing of the degree, the court may on a petition made by “ either spouse “ order that the “ other spouse” shall pay for “ her/his” and children as desfined in section 13 E, as financial support such gross sum or share in the movable or immovable residential property towards settlement of property rights as the court may deem it to be just and equitable, “ considering the duration of marriage “ and any such payment shall be secured, if necessary, by change on the immovale residential property of the other party. For any claim each others spouses residential property, the minimum marriage duration should be considered as 10 years.
  1. The law should be equal and must follow the natural justice and stop making assumption that all women born in Raja Harish Chandra family and all men all men born in criminal family.The person seeking Divorce on “ No fault Ground”, should not get the same benefit, who seek the divorce by proving other party fault. A person should not be punished or his/her hard earned accrued property movable or immovable should not be garbed under any such biased law, which will create injustice and will create more disharmony in society which in result will increase the over all crime in India.

Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

    IPC 498A Law is not for securing the family, but destroying others life also. From the experience, The Girls makes mistakes and blaming to their Innocent Husband and filing Court case with fully false statements.
