Alimony must be banned. If it not banned, dowry must be legalized as well. Amending the alimony law by implementing 8 factors is not good. Why not legalize dowry law and implement the 8 factors to determine how much dowry needs to be paid?
Faye, what do you mean by "In India we don't have alimony?" Please check your facts and do some homework. Lakhs of Men are being harassed in the name of alimony. Most alimony demands are in crores. When I and my wife had approached a divorce lawyer, she asked me point blank "how much alimony are you willing to give to your wife, otherwise remember, she has 'rights'." (What she meant by rights is that my wife can lodge cases against me under many sections available to her) Please don't downplay the issues that men face.
@@Kathakathan11 she did not change her name She did not change her house, we both did. She did not change her career, I left my job and moved to her city. Thanks for exposing the mentality of a common woman these days. They think getting money is their right, and yet call themselves strong and independent. Are they handicapped? Can't they earn their own money if they are educated? Or is education just a Facade for them? These laws were made to protect dependent, illiterate women. But they are being used to the maximum by the most educated and smartest of women. What an irony.
@@Kathakathan11 handicapped men are better than modern women. They might beg but don't snatch other people's money. I wish able-bodied women had the confidence and self-respect of handicapped men.
The law makers and the judiciary go totally mindless while framing laws or implementing them. I think they never think or worry about the repercussions their law or the judgement is going to have on the people concerned with the case. 498A is one such law. Normally, a person is considered innocent until proven guilty of a crime or even accused of terror action involving many deaths but some laws under which a person is arrested just based on some allegations, that person is considered guilty until proven innocent. That person spends years and years without a trial even and denied bail. 498A is such a draconian law that even if a person residing outside the country is completely unaware of a complaint filed by someone in this country, is dragged down and jailed. Many would consider such an action as the work of mad men or women.
Courts need to understand middle class men are scared to even get married now because of these stringent and unreasonable laws. If these laws are not abolished a day is not far when only rich men will get married and the rest will remain single forever against their will.
Madam nothing will happen, it's INDIA's biggest scam with crores and crores of turnover in name of anti men laws, supreme court failed as an adminstrator, not aware of what happens at grassroot level or lower judiciary and police ..everyone is involved in this loot ...may his soul RIP..
both husband and wife should be financially self sustainable. There should be nothing called dowry ,joint finances or alimony. Both of them should have the right to divorce unilaterally. Marriage should be a limited liablity contract. Rich man should be able marry a poor girl without any fear of financial exploitation and rich woman also should be able to marry a poor man without any fear of financial exploitation. Prenuptial contract should be made compulsory to reduce the burden on court.
I can mention my personal experience. I had once reached a tough patch in my life and reached out to lawyer to enquire about divorce. The lawyer first few questions were deeply concerning, he said either I can prove infidelity or physical abuse. However, my case was different, he didn’t want to contribute emotionally or monetarily into the marriage. I reached out to 2 lawyers and both said it’s a tough one in my case. I opted for counselling. But if I was adamant to get a divorce, the options infront of me clearly were to damage him 100%.
@ oh sorry for you then, hope things get better. But if not, what will you do? I am scared for marriage for the same reason. I have money, but I need a emotionally stable man in life who understands his contribution is not just money.
@ my suggestion to anyone getting married is…DO NOT MARRY, be it woman OR man. At 26, I had made a home, car, 25L, working. Life was great, I knew where I was going in life, enjoying it. I am 39 now, I am clueless. For society and parents, I have 2 kids, a married life decent money too. But I have no voice any more. My zeal for life is dead. I will give a simple example…On a hot day I felt thirsty and I was with my husband. Forgot my wallet in my car. I told him, can you please get me water. My ask was after I searched the wallet on me….dragging myself for hours staying mum. He said his office is nearby, can get the water thr its free. It happened 14 years also, and till now I cannot buy water without feeling the pain in my heart. Marriage is complicated.

It’s time to have different laws for urban and rural areas. Things and circumstances are completely different for both scenarios. Also pre contract marriage should be allowed for urban and working couples.
Why Supreme Court is not letting judges use these provisions? BNS Section 248 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2024 (BNS) deals with the crime of falsely accusing someone of a crime with the intent to cause harm. The law aims to protect people from being maliciously involved in criminal proceedings. The punishment for this crime can include: Imprisonment for up to five years A fine of up to two lakh rupees Both imprisonment and a fine The punishment is more severe if the false accusation involves serious crimes, such as those punishable by death, life imprisonment, or long-term imprisonment.
It is really appreciable you declared viewers discretion at the start of the program. Proves yours is a sensible channel unlike insensible, cacophonous main stream media.
I am also going through the same type of false cases in Mumbai for the past 5 years and NO justice so far. The SCI are just become not interested to read the case. I have given up to get justice anymore. Laws are 100% pro women as they are vote bank. Today the SCI has awarded ₹5 Cr to a women. Nothing will change in the corrupt country 👎🏻🤬
Considering how both the Government and the Opposition these days are focused only on ensuring they have the power with them and not thinking about the people of the country, I have almost no hope that anything meaningful will come out of this tragic incident. We need people within the Government as well as the Opposition to be empathetic towards the seriousness of such harassments which happen to all genders and revamp the laws which focus on providing justice irrespective of the gender.
It’s heartbreaking to hear about cases where men feel pushed to the edge due to alleged misuse of legal systems by women. These incidents deserve empathy and serious reflection. However, it’s vital to place these cases within the broader context of systemic oppression that women have endured for centuries. For most women, the fight for justice-whether against harassment, assault, or workplace discrimination-is long, expensive, and often insurmountable due to economic and social barriers. The world remains skewed in favor of men: they earn more, hold more power, and face fewer stigmas. Yes, there are instances of misuse of laws, but they should not overshadow the fact that most women still lack equality in society. They face daily harassment, violence, and systemic barriers. Before rushing to equalize systems or victimize men, let’s address the deep-rooted inequalities that make these systems necessary in the first place. True equality cannot exist when women remain unequal in almost every sphere of life.
You have claimed lot of subjective claim with most women. Do you have hard facts for it. Supreme court and judges themselves say that 80 percent of 498a cases are false. There are videos of court room where judges have asked women to earn themselves that asking exhorbitant maintenance.
@ you have a valid point of view here . Men are bad & so are women. Believing that men & women are equal in society is incorrect . Laws need to be objective keeping in mind the inequity between the sexes .
You are a fool to get married in that country under these corrupt laws and legal system. If you still get married I will not have any sympathy if you end up like Atul.
Problem is not in the law. Its the corruption in judiciary. Even in atul's case, the first person he named as culprit was the judge. Had the judge been honest, it would not have come to this. We have seen a video of a judge asking the wife to earn herself if she wants 6 lakhs as maintenance. Judge also made a comment that just because the husband earns a lot, doesn't mean it should be given to divorced wife. I think it all comes down to judge and lawyers.
It is sad that courts embolden women to go to any extreme because they enjoy an upper hand.What money do they want from a husband when the women is working and earning fatty amounts ?. Their high handedness starts after the women have a legitimate child !. She now plays victim as a single women raising her kids alone. There is no stigma for the child or the mother since the kid had a father !. This harassment has to stop and the courts need to act impartially. I know of many cases where the husbands are harassed to an unbearable extent so that these women can lead a lavish life without out any societal norms. If the man is with a govt job then his life turns for the worse.
If we expect the law to change, we live in a dream world. Many of our current laws are rooted in emotions, vote banks, and social conditions from a century ago. What we need is a legal system that is free from biases based on religion, caste, or gender but such changes are unlikely soon.
Applying laws modeled for a modern society on a backward society like India will lead to such consequences. I am not opposing the law but its application without checks & balances and (failed) social upliftment of women in all these years. Rip to the departed & condolence to his family.
It ofcourse has to be overlooked completely, in what world do you need to die just to make a point which seems happened in this case, I am no means simplifing the situation of the person concerned but it does seem that there was a lack of empathy from the side of the instituations towards him
Most judges are dishonest walking in craftiness and handling the law deceitfully. The main reason is that judges and people have lost the fear of The God . Who judge the evil judge ?
non sense people debate about now 😂😂😂😂 All this is going on every day even today you can go and experience this by spectating divorce cases in court. Lawyers call it a package of 5 for women . 5 different cases will be filed and fought 498a just being one of them . The judge who laughed is a cancer to society. Judge is worse than the wife because they are expected to have better standards.
Faye, you need to improve the quality of your research. Alimony is very much a part of the Indian family law system, but its application is one sided (as usual in India) where the husband has to pay the wife.
Because India is still a patriarchial society and many women either are not educated the same level as their brothers, or after marriage need to make sacrifices of their career and support husband's career instead. India is also not a welfare state so unemployed arent supported and neither is there any support after retirement including no healthcare. So Alimony makes sense. Its also easier for men to remarry, if Atul wanted to he could but wives with the children isnt so easy. Alimony stops once wife remarries but that hardly happens. Domestic violence disproportionately affects more women than men.
@ spare me the sob story about India being a patriarchal society. In today’s India women have equal opportunities as men in every field, especially in tier 1 cities. You are confusing maintenance (which is monthly payment during litigation) and alimony (one time payment at the end of litigation). And why are women seeking maintenance in courts when they are well qualified, and have no children? Of course there are genuine cases where maintenance is justified, but when qualified and capable women seek maintenance, they are weaponising the system against men. And the sad part is that such abuse of the law severely affects the outcomes of genuine victims.
@@Newman79-zg6yw Equal opportunity is only on paper, not societal practice. Atleast now husbands cant just throw their wives out like their some garbage onto the street and remarry. The same way some women are weaponizing the system, so are men including trying to hide their income to avoid paying any support, and in this case going to the extent of committing suicide. Divorce is not fun, there is alot of stress on both sides not just 1 side. Theres alot of emotions including revenge and getting back at the other party. The court isnt interested in who did what or what caused the divorce, but they now have to clean up the mess of both couples who likely shouldnt have gotten married in the first place. Women and children are still the most vulnerable part of society, but I dont expect you to understand that because you're a man who has been brought up in a patriarchial society.
People are only targetting the wife & mil but not the lawyer & police who suggests filing 498 so that they get adequate alimony & child support.Indian men don't even want to give child support firget nominal alimony. This law seems to be the way women can get adequate alimony unfortunately.
@@zahrabjinu Indian men are more than willing to pay for child support provided they get an opportunity to meet the child and spend time with him/her equally. What Indian men are opposing is the lump sum alimony to be paid to the wife, which is usually demanded in crores these days. What Indian men want to oppose is the hefty maintenance paid to the wife on a monthly basis.
Dude why is your tech so lame. Use a Rode wireless, plug it into your phone and shoot good quality video and audio. Also keep the camera eye level. This is lame. I won't watch it just on the account of video quality from a past professional media person
There is a difference between alimony and dowry. The former is a legal compensation and the later is a sheer extortion! But, yeah I agree, there should not be anything like alimony and dowry.
@@sanikasapkale4851 Alimony is also extortion. If women are equal to men, why do they still want money from men? I am not talking about money paid towards shared upbringing of children. That should be borne by both partners. I am talking about the lump sum amount wife demands as alimony which is generally in crores these days.

Alimony must be banned. If it not banned, dowry must be legalized as well. Amending the alimony law by implementing 8 factors is not good. Why not legalize dowry law and implement the 8 factors to determine how much dowry needs to be paid?
Faye, what do you mean by "In India we don't have alimony?" Please check your facts and do some homework.
Lakhs of Men are being harassed in the name of alimony. Most alimony demands are in crores.
When I and my wife had approached a divorce lawyer, she asked me point blank "how much alimony are you willing to give to your wife, otherwise remember, she has 'rights'." (What she meant by rights is that my wife can lodge cases against me under many sections available to her)
Please don't downplay the issues that men face.
"Allimony" in other countries is called "maintenance" in india.its the same.and maintenance is very much there in india.
Why won’t you pay your wife the alimony if she changed her name, her house and her career prospects for you?…
@@Kathakathan11 she did not change her name
She did not change her house, we both did.
She did not change her career, I left my job and moved to her city.
Thanks for exposing the mentality of a common woman these days. They think getting money is their right, and yet call themselves strong and independent. Are they handicapped? Can't they earn their own money if they are educated? Or is education just a Facade for them?
These laws were made to protect dependent, illiterate women. But they are being used to the maximum by the most educated and smartest of women. What an irony.
@@Kathakathan11 handicapped men are better than modern women. They might beg but don't snatch other people's money.
I wish able-bodied women had the confidence and self-respect of handicapped men.
@@Kathakathan11 she did not change her name or her job.
I changed my job and city for her.
And by the way she earns a good amount of money herself.
Any Law and power without accountability is abuse.
But then, woman and accountability, logic dont go together.
Fair argument. A lot of good men and their aged parents are getting harassed by misuse.
The law makers and the judiciary go totally mindless while framing laws or implementing them. I think they never think or worry about the repercussions their law or the judgement is going to have on the people concerned with the case. 498A is one such law. Normally, a person is considered innocent until proven guilty of a crime or even accused of terror action involving many deaths but some laws under which a person is arrested just based on some allegations, that person is considered guilty until proven innocent. That person spends years and years without a trial even and denied bail. 498A is such a draconian law that even if a person residing outside the country is completely unaware of a complaint filed by someone in this country, is dragged down and jailed. Many would consider such an action as the work of mad men or women.
Almost no women in the comment section, they'll use the trigger warning as an excuse to conveniently skip this.
There are many in the comment sections, go read….
Should the law be removed?
Courts need to understand middle class men are scared to even get married now because of these stringent and unreasonable laws. If these laws are not abolished a day is not far when only rich men will get married and the rest will remain single forever against their will.
Good. India is already overpopulated anyway.
It's better to remain single then getting married to someone who is greedy, toxic and blood sucker of your life
Madam nothing will happen, it's INDIA's biggest scam with crores and crores of turnover in name of anti men laws, supreme court failed as an adminstrator, not aware of what happens at grassroot level or lower judiciary and police ..everyone is involved in this loot ...may his soul RIP..
It's same lawyers and judges are misusing the laws
Well-researched and nuanced video on this issue!👌🏻👍🏻
both husband and wife should be financially self sustainable. There should be nothing called dowry ,joint finances or alimony.
Both of them should have the right to divorce unilaterally. Marriage should be a limited liablity contract. Rich man should be able marry a poor girl without any fear of financial exploitation and rich woman also should be able to marry a poor man without any fear of financial exploitation. Prenuptial contract should be made compulsory to reduce the burden on court.
I can mention my personal experience. I had once reached a tough patch in my life and reached out to lawyer to enquire about divorce. The lawyer first few questions were deeply concerning, he said either I can prove infidelity or physical abuse. However, my case was different, he didn’t want to contribute emotionally or monetarily into the marriage. I reached out to 2 lawyers and both said it’s a tough one in my case. I opted for counselling. But if I was adamant to get a divorce, the options infront of me clearly were to damage him 100%.
Thank god you didn’t do that. But did he start contributing later or you just separated?…
@ well the marriage still stands legally. He wont change his ways for me.
@ oh sorry for you then, hope things get better. But if not, what will you do? I am scared for marriage for the same reason. I have money, but I need a emotionally stable man in life who understands his contribution is not just money.
@ my suggestion to anyone getting married is…DO NOT MARRY, be it woman OR man. At 26, I had made a home, car, 25L, working. Life was great, I knew where I was going in life, enjoying it. I am 39 now, I am clueless. For society and parents, I have 2 kids, a married life decent money too. But I have no voice any more. My zeal for life is dead. I will give a simple example…On a hot day I felt thirsty and I was with my husband. Forgot my wallet in my car. I told him, can you please get me water. My ask was after I searched the wallet on me….dragging myself for hours staying mum. He said his office is nearby, can get the water thr its free. It happened 14 years also, and till now I cannot buy water without feeling the pain in my heart. Marriage is complicated.
@ my dear, I will just say this: Do NOT marry. What will I do, not sure. After 14 years I have come to terms that he won’t change his ways.
For those who think he should consult a psychiatrist or councellor for his suicide should rethink below
1 waited nearly 4 years for justice
2 from his suicide video and few interview seen online he was calm , sorted person
3 giving money to wife so that she can put pressure on him
4 family of Subhash harrassment
5 law which is a joke will help him to get just
Average time to get divorce in this type of cases 10 years
Time money self confidence all will be gone if you don't believe me it is upto you
It’s time to have different laws for urban and rural areas. Things and circumstances are completely different for both scenarios. Also pre contract marriage should be allowed for urban and working couples.
Legalize dowry and add these 8 factors like alimony is legal and the supreme court is considering 8 factors to be considered for it.
Not all women but always a woman 💯
Yes… women are evil… men are the angels from the heaven
Why Supreme Court is not letting judges use these provisions?
BNS Section 248 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2024 (BNS) deals with the crime of falsely accusing someone of a crime with the intent to cause harm. The law aims to protect people from being maliciously involved in criminal proceedings.
The punishment for this crime can include:
Imprisonment for up to five years
A fine of up to two lakh rupees
Both imprisonment and a fine
The punishment is more severe if the false accusation involves serious crimes, such as those punishable by death, life imprisonment, or long-term imprisonment.
Law makers wake up.. or eventually people will take matters in their own hands
Thank u for taking this up
It is really appreciable you declared viewers discretion at the start of the program. Proves yours is a sensible channel unlike insensible, cacophonous main stream media.
THERE ARE GOOD PEOPLE AND BAD PEOPLE... One's religion, gender, or nationality has nothing to do with a person's character!
Hope Justice is served
But then we have Indian men asking for repealing the laws all together. The right wing is probably riding high on this….
I am also going through the same type of false cases in Mumbai for the past 5 years and NO justice so far. The SCI are just become not interested to read the case. I have given up to get justice anymore. Laws are 100% pro women as they are vote bank. Today the SCI has awarded ₹5 Cr to a women. Nothing will change in the corrupt country 👎🏻🤬
Considering how both the Government and the Opposition these days are focused only on ensuring they have the power with them and not thinking about the people of the country, I have almost no hope that anything meaningful will come out of this tragic incident.
We need people within the Government as well as the Opposition to be empathetic towards the seriousness of such harassments which happen to all genders and revamp the laws which focus on providing justice irrespective of the gender.
Could divorce lawyers be making such recommendations of adding so and so allegations to also bump up their legal fees?
yes they do
It’s heartbreaking to hear about cases where men feel pushed to the edge due to alleged misuse of legal systems by women. These incidents deserve empathy and serious reflection. However, it’s vital to place these cases within the broader context of systemic oppression that women have endured for centuries.
For most women, the fight for justice-whether against harassment, assault, or workplace discrimination-is long, expensive, and often insurmountable due to economic and social barriers. The world remains skewed in favor of men: they earn more, hold more power, and face fewer stigmas.
Yes, there are instances of misuse of laws, but they should not overshadow the fact that most women still lack equality in society. They face daily harassment, violence, and systemic barriers. Before rushing to equalize systems or victimize men, let’s address the deep-rooted inequalities that make these systems necessary in the first place. True equality cannot exist when women remain unequal in almost every sphere of life.
You have claimed lot of subjective claim with most women. Do you have hard facts for it.
Supreme court and judges themselves say that 80 percent of 498a cases are false.
There are videos of court room where judges have asked women to earn themselves that asking exhorbitant maintenance.
@ you have a valid point of view here . Men are bad & so are women. Believing that men & women are equal in society is incorrect . Laws need to be objective keeping in mind the inequity between the sexes .
@8.28 > It is not just 'used' but also abused. Blatantly shud we say.
I am about to get an arranged marriage I m very very scared now.. I m under too much distress. Please suggest
You are a fool to get married in that country under these corrupt laws and legal system. If you still get married I will not have any sympathy if you end up like Atul.
Mam please tell the laws through which a man can safeguard himself against the misuse of 498A Law
#JusticeforSubhash
Yes ABSOLUTELY !!!
Supper ,one of the best journalists in India 🎉
Millions of women and millions of men, please have an unbiased stance here. 😢
Problem is not in the law. Its the corruption in judiciary. Even in atul's case, the first person he named as culprit was the judge. Had the judge been honest, it would not have come to this.
We have seen a video of a judge asking the wife to earn herself if she wants 6 lakhs as maintenance. Judge also made a comment that just because the husband earns a lot, doesn't mean it should be given to divorced wife. I think it all comes down to judge and lawyers.
It is sad that courts embolden women to go to any extreme because they enjoy an upper hand.What money do they want from a husband when the women is working and earning fatty amounts ?. Their high handedness starts after the women have a legitimate child !. She now plays victim as a single women raising her kids alone. There is no stigma for the child or the mother since the kid had a father !. This harassment has to stop and the courts need to act impartially. I know of many cases where the husbands are harassed to an unbearable extent so that these women can lead a lavish life without out any societal norms. If the man is with a govt job then his life turns for the worse.
Law is lop sided and though real victims might not be reaching the courts but surely misusers take disadvantage.
There is no proper law for women who are harassing men for money they take advantages put faulty cases to achieve money also courts helps them
Good observation from a women perspective, even if the victim is a man
Gradually the young generation is losing faith in marriage, especially the boys
If we expect the law to change, we live in a dream world. Many of our current laws are rooted in emotions, vote banks, and social conditions from a century ago. What we need is a legal system that is free from biases based on religion, caste, or gender but such changes are unlikely soon.
Expecting application of intelligence by judges is an oxymoron 😂😂😂
Very disturbing and sad. A young life lost.
Applying laws modeled for a modern society on a backward society like India will lead to such consequences. I am not opposing the law but its application without checks & balances and (failed) social upliftment of women in all these years. Rip to the departed & condolence to his family.
It ofcourse has to be overlooked completely, in what world do you need to die just to make a point which seems happened in this case, I am no means simplifing the situation of the person concerned but it does seem that there was a lack of empathy from the side of the instituations towards him
Most judges are dishonest walking in craftiness and handling the law deceitfully. The main reason is that judges and people have lost the fear of The God . Who judge the evil judge ?
Thumbnail has a "?" and title has "alleging"
Does being feminist makes you inhumane Faye ???
Ache din of our Indian judiciary 🎉
These r more rampant...this got the media coverage bcuz of the suicide
non sense people debate about now 😂😂😂😂
All this is going on every day even today you can go and experience this by spectating divorce cases in court.
Lawyers call it a package of 5 for women .
5 different cases will be filed and fought 498a just being one of them .
The judge who laughed is a cancer to society.
Judge is worse than the wife because they are expected to have better standards.
Why is there no prenup in India ?
Mam your videos sound quality could be more louder, thank you!
💐🪔
Faye, you need to improve the quality of your research. Alimony is very much a part of the Indian family law system, but its application is one sided (as usual in India) where the husband has to pay the wife.
Because India is still a patriarchial society and many women either are not educated the same level as their brothers, or after marriage need to make sacrifices of their career and support husband's career instead. India is also not a welfare state so unemployed arent supported and neither is there any support after retirement including no healthcare. So Alimony makes sense. Its also easier for men to remarry, if Atul wanted to he could but wives with the children isnt so easy. Alimony stops once wife remarries but that hardly happens. Domestic violence disproportionately affects more women than men.
@ spare me the sob story about India being a patriarchal society. In today’s India women have equal opportunities as men in every field, especially in tier 1 cities. You are confusing maintenance (which is monthly payment during litigation) and alimony (one time payment at the end of litigation). And why are women seeking maintenance in courts when they are well qualified, and have no children? Of course there are genuine cases where maintenance is justified, but when qualified and capable women seek maintenance, they are weaponising the system against men. And the sad part is that such abuse of the law severely affects the outcomes of genuine victims.
@@Newman79-zg6yw Equal opportunity is only on paper, not societal practice. Atleast now husbands cant just throw their wives out like their some garbage onto the street and remarry. The same way some women are weaponizing the system, so are men including trying to hide their income to avoid paying any support, and in this case going to the extent of committing suicide. Divorce is not fun, there is alot of stress on both sides not just 1 side. Theres alot of emotions including revenge and getting back at the other party. The court isnt interested in who did what or what caused the divorce, but they now have to clean up the mess of both couples who likely shouldnt have gotten married in the first place. Women and children are still the most vulnerable part of society, but I dont expect you to understand that because you're a man who has been brought up in a patriarchial society.
needs a page one rewrite. this is bullshit
Talked so much said nothing
1. Bengaluru not Bangalore
2. Looks like a north indian case why Bengaluru and its image pulled up unnecessarily.
Mumbai-Bombay, Bengaluru-Bangalore, Calcutta-Kolkata, Dilli-Delhi. Same thing, all of them
You don’t live in India?
❤😢
People are only targetting the wife & mil but not the lawyer & police who suggests filing 498 so that they get adequate alimony & child support.Indian men don't even want to give child support firget nominal alimony. This law seems to be the way women can get adequate alimony unfortunately.
@@zahrabjinu Indian men are more than willing to pay for child support provided they get an opportunity to meet the child and spend time with him/her equally.
What Indian men are opposing is the lump sum alimony to be paid to the wife, which is usually demanded in crores these days.
What Indian men want to oppose is the hefty maintenance paid to the wife on a monthly basis.
@@zahrabjinu please don't put it on police and lawyers. It's ultimately the wife who lodges these false cases.
Dude why is your tech so lame. Use a Rode wireless, plug it into your phone and shoot good quality video and audio. Also keep the camera eye level. This is lame.
I won't watch it just on the account of video quality from a past professional media person
Don’t watch then?
👍
If a working, independent women has right to Alimony then how can we advocate men to refute dowry.
There is a difference between alimony and dowry. The former is a legal compensation and the later is a sheer extortion!
But, yeah I agree, there should not be anything like alimony and dowry.
@@sanikasapkale4851 Alimony is also extortion. If women are equal to men, why do they still want money from men?
I am not talking about money paid towards shared upbringing of children. That should be borne by both partners.
I am talking about the lump sum amount wife demands as alimony which is generally in crores these days.
@@sanikasapkale4851
there is no difference.
If u justify alimony we can justify dowry with same points
