Template/Format for newspaper apology by wife for filing false complaint or cases
Friends, many a husbands have gone through the un-envious situation of having to deal with a wife who has dragged them to CAW cell/mahila thana, to police, or filed cases like DV/CrPC 125; and if that was not enough, later she proclaims that she wants to come back, or even files an RCR (restitution of conjugal rights) petition on husband in family court. I have already outlined in this post in some detail on how to handle such now-I-hate-you-now-I-want-you type of wife. But I have realized that the “thanks but no thanks” approach is not working out for many husbands, who want to give one more chance to wife (or to marriage) to come back and make their life into the promised heaven that it was supposed to be when they got married. For such husbands, these are the brilliant or … [Read more...] about Template/Format for newspaper apology by wife for filing false complaint or cases
Women Safety: If someone is threatening a person via calls and messages , what charges can be pressed against him/her (in India)?
My reply to this question on Quora was flagged as not being a direct reply to question asked: ----------------- Your answer doesn't answer the questionThis answer should directly respond to the specific question asked. ----------------- The reason I didn’t give a supposedly direct answer was that I was asked by someone to answer this question, and another person before me had given plenty of direct information in his reply, so I decided to give a reply which will be more educative than making a person depend on asking a different question for every small doubt – avoiding the the spoon feeding approach, basically. And in fact, my answer suggests the right way for a layman/citizen to approach police, because the alternative is for a citizen to learn up on IPC before approaching police, … [Read more...] about Women Safety: If someone is threatening a person via calls and messages , what charges can be pressed against him/her (in India)?

Husband’s EMI towards house to be considered in CrPC 125 Maintenance to wife – SC Judgment
This is somewhat old judgment of Supreme Court, and it brings an important consideration which was overlooked by lower courts: Which was neglecting to consider monthly EMI paid by husband towards housing loan. The order reduced maintenance amount from Rs 10,000 to Rs 5,000 p.m. While this may cause cheers to readers, it should be noted that the in-hand salary of husband is Rs 9,000 p.m, so effectively he has to now survive on Rs 4,000 p.m. Somehow the facts of the case don’t add up for me. There must be more to it than the numbers mentioned in the judgment. The logic of going for an EMI of 21K on a salary of 35K itself seems questionable. Surely reducing maintenance might be considered a sacred goal by many husbands, but taking such huge loan thereby living on the … [Read more...] about Husband’s EMI towards house to be considered in CrPC 125 Maintenance to wife – SC Judgment

I am giving some general looking points, and one has to replace them with those applicable to own situation.
