Let me begin with a short marital rape law misuse story: A man and a woman fell in love in the metropolitan city of Bangalore. After dating each other for more than two years they decided to marry. One fine day,
The wife said: Let’s do it.
The Husband replied: Let’s Do it.

Marriage Is Just A Piece Of Paper
As time passed from when the heinous sex act took place. On an nth day, the conflict and discord took place, and now the same husband had become a rapist and the consensual sex became rape.
Then the wife said: You raped me the other day!!
The Husband replied: Wait, What???
The Wife replied: Yes, You did not have my consent and you are a rapist!!!
The Husband said: No! We both agreed to it!
The wife makes an evil face (full with the feeling of taking revenge) said: Does it matter?
Marital Rape
Completely based on Woman’s Testimony.
No Medical Proof is required.
The husband and his family will be arrested and trialed on the basis of the women’s complaint.
Judiciary will presume the husband guilty in the initial trial itself.
Got out of court settlement, that means rape cases will be dropped if Husband agrees to property / Money transfer, Alimony, which will enable Lawyers, Police, and Women activists to extort commission.
Rape
Women’s Testimony is only a part of the Trial.
Medical proof is a part of proceedings.
Only perpetrators are trialed and not his NRI brother and sister working abroad.
Judiciary won’t presume anything at all. The trial will be based on fact and evidence.
Didn’t get out of court settlement, If you are a rapist you will be punished no escaping by giving money or property.
NCRB: 74% of rape cases and 80% of dowry cases filed in India end in acquittal.
Yes, Marital Rape is a crime, and it’s already a crime for husbands in India via IPC498A and DVAct, but the same is not a crime for wives.
Yes, every law is bound to be misused but no law punishes the defendant on the mere basis of the petitioner’s complaint.
Article 10 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights gives people the ” Right to a fair trial ”
Inability to catch a Martial Rapist shouldn’t be the basis of assuming every Husband a Rapist.
