DMK MP Slams Chhattisgarh HC, Asks To Criminalize Marital Rape

DMK MP K Kanimozhi criticised the High Court of Chhattisgarh for ruling the statement, which says that forced, unnatural sex with a wife is not an offence and does not come under the crime in Indian law.

MP from Tamil Nadu, in a post on social media platform X, wrote: “A woman was raped, brutalised, and killed. But in India, her suffering doesn’t count because our laws still refuse to recognise marital rape as a crime. This is the state enabling rape”.

He further wrote, “The government’s stand that marriage is a sacrament and citing reasons such as illiteracy, religious sentiments, and myriad social customs and values for ignoring marital rape is appalling. How many more women must die before India stops protecting rapists in marriage? #CriminaliseMaritalRape NOW.”

A second flight carrying Indian Illegal immigrants will be deported from the United States. The flight will land in Amritsar on February 15. Another flight carrying deported Indians is expected to arrive after this flight.

Meanwhile, the first flight landed on February 5 in Amritsar, carrying around 104 migrants.

Amid the deportation process, the Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Cheema alleged that the central government led by BJP is targeting Punjab.

“The government wants to defame Punjab by ensuring that aircraft carrying deported Indians land in Amritsar. Why not Haryana or Gujarat? This is clearly an attempt by the BJP to tarnish Punjab’s image. This aircraft should land in Ahmedabad instead,” Harpal Singh Cheema told India today.
