http://www.hindustantimes.com/comment/analysis/spare-a-thought-for-innocent-husbands/article1-1258561.aspx Consider the following, drawn from the 2013 data of the National Crime Records Bureau: Of the 968,728 undertrials under IPC 498A, 17,542 (only 1.8%) persons were convicted. Who returns the life lost in litigation to the remaining 98.2%? Of the 222,091 arrested under IPC 498A, only 7.9% were convicted. Will the life of the 92.1% falsely arrested remain the same? Husband suicides (64,098) are more than twice that of wife suicides (29,491) over the last 20 years. Family issues, and not financial troubles, were the major reason.

Men's Welfare
Delhi HC’s ‘super-judge’ S N Dhingra tells men their place in marriage!
Ha… know your duties man! tells the Delhi HC. Only problem is that here the man is forced to go to jail if unable to buy separate house for wife, but not clear if there was any obligation put on wife or not! She will get a separate house to live separately from in-laws, but what does husband get in return? Any peace of mind? Not possible. How can that be written in a mediation (read: legal, ‘civilized’, state sponsored husbands’ extortion) based agreement? Wives do not have any obligation under Indian legal system.. they have only privileges. Men have no privileges, they have only obligations. Now judges are enforcing the obligations on men with all the brutal state power at their disposal. http://www.indianexpress.com/news/buy-house-for-wife-or-go-to-jail-hc-tells-man/638470/ … [Read more...] about Delhi HC’s ‘super-judge’ S N Dhingra tells men their place in marriage!
i-VAWA, US toxic waste being dumped overseas now!
From link below: http://wemen.us/articles/views/700-ivawa--a-ticking-social-bomb.html The U.S. Govt. is planning to table a bill in its Senate and the Lower House named the iVAWA which stands for "International Violence against Women Act". Not to be surprised at all, it will be completely anti-male and in the name of Women Empowerment, Male Entrapment would be passed off as a social service. The U.S. Govt. is planning to release $ 1 billion, which works out to Rs. 4500 Crore for creating awareness about iVAWA and Indian feminists would easily get $ 200 million which works out to Rs. 900 crores for implementing iVAWA. Such an amount of money is sufficiently enough to ruin Indian men's lives. Apart from being gender biased, the iVAWA is actually "A Ticking Social Bomb" which will be … [Read more...] about i-VAWA, US toxic waste being dumped overseas now!
Launching the Bangalore Chapter of the All India Men’s Welfare Association (AIMWA)
PRESS RELEASE Sub: Launching the Bangalore Chapter of the All India Men’s Welfare Association (AIMWA) About AIMWA: All India Men’s Welfare Association (AIMWA) was launched in Hyderabad on the 11th October 2009 to work in the area of elimination of all kinds of discrimination against boys and men. Today, this press conference is being conducted to launch the Bangalore Chapter of the same. Why Men’s Welfare: Ask someone about the problems of women and a list would emerge that would never seem to end. Ask about men’s problems and all one sees is blank faces. Does that mean that men do not have any problems? Or is it that there is no awareness for the same, as mirrored in the statement – “Absence of evidence is not an evidence of absence.”? If we look back, in the … [Read more...] about Launching the Bangalore Chapter of the All India Men’s Welfare Association (AIMWA)
