Some Interesting Stats On Arrests Of Women
In 1930, the British govt arrested 17,000 women for their involvement in the Dandi Yatra (Salt March).
During 1937 to 1947 (10 Years), they arrested 5,000 women involved in the freedom struggle.
From 2004 to 2006, the govt of India arrested 90,000 women of all ages under 498A. On the average, 27,000 women per year are being arrested under this flawed law. These are stats from the NCRB.

The family of the writer was tortured by the Indian Police in an attempt to extort over a $100,000 by holding them in custody for over a week. The police, in cahoots with the magistrate and the PP, did this due to the ridiculous allegations made in a 498A case by his embittered ex-wife. She filed the case years after he and his family had last seen her. Thousands of 498A cases are filed each year in India by women seeking to wreak vengeance on their husbands and in-laws. Enormous sums are extorted from intimidated families implicated in these cases by corrupt Indian police officers and elements of the Indian judiciary. The author and his family haven't bribed any public official nor have they given in to the extortion. This blog aims to raise awareness of due process in India.

Thanks to the SC for the interpretation.Otherwise it would have been nightmare for lower courts judges.Some more terms to be interpreted like ‘domestic relationship’ and when a ‘relationship in the nature of marriage’ can be assumed as terminated and what would be a standard amount of maintenance under the Act in relation to husband’s income etc.Wait for the further orders.

Excellent Judgement from the Supreme Court.
But why must the lower courts also not exercise its jurisdiction and quash proceedings under the DV Act and IPC498A when it is aware that such laws are grossly misused against innocent menfolk.

Sir,
In Batra’s case the Boy was not residing in the alleged Matrimonial Home. Can we interpret that this decision may not squarely apply to a case where the Boy continues to stay in his Parent’ house?Request to forward any other decision on this issue.
Regards,
SK.
