Men's rights juggernaut steamrolls into the Nagpur Marathon

After a superb show of strength at the Mumbai Marathon the men's rights juggernaut today steamrolled its way into Nagpur Marathon. The turn out was fantastic with close to 300 husbands and their families including their fathers , mothers , sisters and sometimes even children demanded an end to exploitation of husbands and men in Indian courts . These families demanded immediate amendment to the biased DV act , Section 498A , Maintenance laws and child custody laws . The protest was widely appreciated and supported by the policemen , the onlookers (both men and women) who now understand the bias Indian men face in families and in courts. The sheer number of protests and the sympathetic response from the public show that the Indian society is waking up slowly to the reality that men and husbands are the victims of deliberate discrimination by the Indian government. Over 56000 husbands are driven to suicide every year by their wives and the apathetic attitude Indian Judicial system. Are you listening Mr Moily ?

Wife's family use divorce as a way to make money

With Star Plus exposing Anti Dowry law abuse proving that the dowry story is a total lie , it is the turn of NDTV now . The media has finally started to portray what the men's rights groups have said for long , Indian wives and their families misuse marital laws and divorce to extort money for their economic upliftment. I thank NDTV for showing the true face of the wives of India and their families. Watch below how the mother of the wife speaks how much her daughter made from the divorce and how they too should get a few crores from the divorce to better their economic position . We need more media houses to show the true reality of the misuse of marital laws.

NCW :- The Indian Anti Men Lies Factory

NCW Lies once again, this time on complaints against NRI Husbands

The Anti-Men National Commission for Women(NCW) is back to what it does best. LIE!! . Recently they came up with another statement claimed that the NCW has received 331 complaints against NRI husbands. The NCW Chairperson had made a similar remark on Pravasi Bharatiya Divas 2006 when she said that over 1000 complaints had been recieved from NRI women complaining of harassment and other offences against them. However after multiple RTI applications were seeking the validity behind these claims were filed(see below) , it was proven beyond resonable soubt that that the not only the NCW but the MOIA and the WCD together combined did not have more than 50 complaints against NRI husbands with most complaints being duplicates that were forwarded between these agencies. This exposes the level of lies and deceit that Indian agencies use to defame husbands and Men in general to create and justify the creation of Anti men laws.

This is not the first time that that the NCW has openly lied .The NCW normally attracts a lot media attention by making nonsensical and wild recommendations with the sole intention of making life miserable for men. Below are some of the recent recommendations of the NCW on other issues and their brief analysis.

1) NCW went ahead and published that in 70 % of cases women are denied maintenance on grounds of adultery. SIFF activists when filed for data to support the claim made by NCW, through an application under Rights to Information Act, 2005, NCW in its reply categorically denied maintaining any such data. It was a white lie published by NCW and a delirious attempt by NCW to fudge statistics and present an otherwise picture to realize vendetta best known to it. Such a body severely lacking integrity and accountability does not deserve such a position.

2) NCW Chairperson claimed in the media that 498A is abused by women due to ignorance.


3) NCW wants the death os any married woman anytime through out her marriage must be treated as a dowry death .This was done with the clear intention to increase the dowry death numbers so that that can be used as a fudged statistic.


4) NCW recommended the removal of adultery by wife as a clause for divorce. In India women as it is cannot be convicted for adultery. According to NCW recommendations men must not be able to get a divorce even if their wives leave them and maintain sexual relations with other men.


5) NCW recommended that giving Dowry must not be considered as a crime .Taking Dowry taking will remain a crime for men however, giving dowry will not be considered a crime for women and their families.


On the NRI complaints issue here are the shocking lies and details of actual complaints these organisations have over the years and the link to the RTI to see their replies for yourself.


RTI exposes the lies that is churned out by the Anti Men Lies factories

Hand in Glove Indian Ministries creates a web of deceit and lies against NRI husbands exposed here with RTI.

Ministry of Internal Affairs ( MOIA ) response

MOIA RTI and Reply Link

Question:-Please list the total number of complaints received by the MOIA about harassment and crimes against NRI women since January 1st 2005.

1) The Ministry has received about 10 complaints from both the NRI husband/ Indian Husbands against their wives living aboard residing in India.

( The ministry claims that it has complaints from husbands against wives and not the other way round ! What action if any has been taken against wives ? NONE , since women cannot commit a crime in India )

2) Minister Valayar Ravi then goes on to clarify that his statement that 20,000 cases are pending against NRI husbands is a lie and he has been misquoted.


Women and Child Development Ministry response

WCD RTI and Reply Link

The WCD Ministry in its RTI reply states the below statistics for the number of complaints they have received year wise against NRI Husbands.

2005 - 1 Complaint
2006 - 1 Complaint
2007 - 14 Complaints

The reply also states that all complaints have been forwarded to the NCW for action .


National Commission for Women response

NCW RTI and Reply Link - 1
NCW RTI and Reply Link - 2

The NCW states the below statistics for the number of complaints they have received year wise against NRI Husbands.

200623 Complaints ( NCW chairperson openly lied stating they have 1000+ complaints )
200720 Complaints
200842 Complaints

Note that these also included complaints forwarded from WCD and MOIA so many of these complaints are duplicates . Also , these are just complaints many of which may turn out to be false during trial and going by the truthfulness in Dowry and Domestic voilence cases there is a very high probability that these complaints may have been filed by estranged wives seeking vengeance on their husbands and looking to extort money. Just like 98% of dowry cases are false(according to government statistics), it is anybody’s guess how many of these complaints against NRI Husbands are really true.


Shutter NCW Immediately
The National Commission for Women which had transformed into National Commission for Wives has today transformed itself into the National Commission against Men in the background. NCW, originally designed to be an astute body working for the genuine causes of women has today miserably failed in its duties to protect the rights of women and safeguard the same as the arrest data published by the National Crime Records Bureau shows that more than 1, 23,000 women have been arrested in the last four years for complaints under Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code.The organization has completely lost credibility in all aspects and today relies on fudged numbers to promote its cause of family destruction. The organization has today been reduced to just a haven for radical feminists who propose virtually anything that will lead to further destruction of the Indian family system. The organization has totally lost direction and purpose and has become burden on the tax payers of the country, 82% of who are men. Most of the organization recommendations are outrageous and totally unfair to men in general. The organization never speaks about misuse of the law by women and never recommends ways to arrest misuse and has today become an engine to draft more biased anti men laws. The organization needs to be shuttered at the earliest.

Indian government openly promoting Dowry system

Dowry system has always evoked a lot of response in India but mostly in wrong directions. The very word dowry sparks sympathy for the bride and hatred for the bridegroom. Thanks to the countless efforts of fund chasing gender obsessed radical feminists and power hungry alpha males who have jointly spread so much of male hatred that today, the society has become completely numb to abuse of men and crimes by women.

The word “dowry harassment” is conveniently used by women to cover up their follies and hold some man responsible for it. Today, misuse of dowry laws is an acceptable fact. Everyone from Peon to President has talked about it. What does that mean? It simply means that the problem of dowry as presented has never existed, otherwise why would there be so many false cases? More so, it has to be borne in mind that the current implementation of dowry laws does not require any evidence to punish the accused – the mere statement of the “woman” is enough to punish and the onus of proving innocence lies on the accused.

Very recently, the Ministry of Women and Child Development has made efforts to reduce punishment for “Dowry Givers” while increase it for “Dowry Takers” as per the following news http://in.jagran.yahoo.com/news/national/general/5_1_6097820.html.

Common sense is something which is terribly missing in the Indian Government and our lawmakers. If there are no “Givers”, can there be any “Takers”? Instead of increasing the punishment for “Givers” which will actually reduce the practice of dowry as the root cause is taken care of, our great lawmakers are doing the exact opposite.

I was always doubtful of the real intentions of the Govt. of India in curbing the dowry system because the mere existence of it, albeit virtually, gets the Govt. huge funding from vested western agencies. Only an idiot will kill a goose that gives golden eggs. And with this proposal in pipeline, it is clearly evident that the Govt. does not want to eradicate the dowry system, but wants it to continue so that the journey itself is more intriguing than the destination.

Dowry Giving has been clearly defined as a crime in Section 3, Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. Yet, till date not a single woman or her parents, shouting at the top of their lungs that they have given huge dowry to the man, have ever been punished for the offence while millions of men have been executed for the same. This in itself shows the anti-male bias of the Government. And now with this proposed amendment, the Govt. is simply allowing the crime legally.

Even, if the current Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 is implemented in its entirety, dowry givers are punished severely and extravagant marriages are brought under its ambit, banning them strictly, the so-called dowry problem will be solved in the next 2 years. But it also means that the foreign funding received for “eliminating dowry” will stop. Not only that, the 50,000 crore market that runs now in the name of “big-fat weddings” will come to an abrupt end. This will be an economic Tsunami for business houses and Corporates and in turn will not only affect Govt.’s funding but also the vote bank. So, quintessentially the existence of the dowry system runs the Govt. No wonder it is promoting it by sinister law amendments.

Girls have always married up in our society, i.e. the economic status/social status/educational status of the boy is higher than the girl in 99% of the cases, barring a few exceptions (the existence of which is the law of Nature). So every girl (and her parents) looks for an educated, well settled boy for an alliance. However, as the Indian Govt. has not furthered any scheme to educate boys, most boys are not able to perform academically and the supply of “eligible bachelors” is very less. That means there is stiff competition among girls to get that “eligible bachelor” and whosoever, pays the highest amount of dowry gets the alliance. It’s simple Demand-Supply dynamics which is currently one-sided. Make it two-sided and the problem is solved. But is anyone actually interested in solving problems?

This system also works well for the Govt. as it gets another chance to project women as victims and men as aggressors and justify anti-male laws or any sinister amendment to it as well. The coy deployed by the Govt. to run its shop under the barb and paradoxical veil of “eradicating dowry” is slowly coming to surface.

In fact, the best way to eradicate dowry system is to break all marriages involving even a whisper of “dowry”, but by giving extra concessions to dowry givers, the Indian Govt. is promoting the dowry system rather than working to eradicate it.

Pampered women claim bias if they face punishment for misusing law

Now that the Ruchika case has galvanized the nation Bangalore based fund and publicity chasing feminists have now decided to get some limelight from the Pratibha Rape case which has been dragging in a "Fast Track" court for 4 years.

Women's organizations have suddenly realized that the Prathibha case may be the next big thing and have started to latch on to get their name in the press. I start by asking what Vimochana has done for Pratibha's family for the last 4 years. What has it done for the scores of mothers and sisters arrested falsely under section 498A ? In the press interview instead of pointing out the judicial delay and the need to reform the judicial and poi lice system which is dragging the Pratibha case ,Dona Fernandes makes an outrageous claim that “the whole legal system is biased against women” just because “According to this(Sexual harassment) Bill, women will be punished if their complaint is found to be faulty” . This shocking allegation exposes the level of government pamperment that the women of India have gotten used to lately .They now have started to demand laws which of course have to biased against men but will have no provision of punishment even if the woman is deliberately misusing the law to harass the other party . They do not expect to be punished for making false claims but expect to be compensated for the same. The women wishes to remain the victim even when she is misusing the laws. The dowry law sees about 98% misuse and the Domestic violence act sees about 80% misuse according to statistics released by the government and judiciary itself. Judges , home ministry and other government officials speak about this statistics in hushed tones afraid of the reign of terror unleashed by feminists in India . Any effort to reform and make laws gender neutral are met with severe defamation and we saw this with Justice Malimath’s recommendations on making 498A bailable which was met with severe criticism and protests from feminist organizations .

I do not blame Donna’s raised expectations one bit since they are not unfounded given the fact that recently drafted laws for women empowerment are blatantly unconstitutional. Article 14 of the Constitution provides for Right to Equality before law for all citizens of India. In the newly created Domestic Violence Act, firstly men are not provided any protection whatsoever against domestic abuse from their wives and in-laws and secondly the complainant woman’s sole testimony is considered as evidence of violation of protection order enough to convict the man. Both these practices do not place men and women at equal footing before the law as men face severe legal discrimination their constitutional right under Article 14 of the Indian constitution is challenged. There are scores of PIL’s pending in various different High courts of the nation challenging the constitutionality of the DV act . The government is playing the usual card of delaying the cases as much as possible trying to save face as long as possible.

How many cases of Domestic Voilence being registered by men ? None . They are not registered simply because there is not even a provision to register them anywhere . There are no laws , no NGO’s , No budget , not even a desire to take a step to protect men even they the husband suicide data for the last 13 years points that Indian husbands are in dire need to government help and protection.
