Chandigarh:

The Save Indian Family Foundation organised an interactive session for the media at the Leisure Valley here on Sunday evening. Every Sunday, SIFF organizes a similar session for families who are implicated in false dowry cases. Such sessions are organized at Leisure Valley, Sector 10, from 5 pm to 7.30 pm. The audience were made aware of the pro-woman laws in the Indian legal system and how such laws are being misused by certain people for vested interests. SIFF is a team of dedicated families comprising victims of “misuse of Section 498-A” and all gender biased laws of India, including non-resident Indians, senior citizens, who campaign and create awareness about gross injustice and abuse that happen in Indian legal system.

The Chandigarh chapter of the SIFF was started in July last year (2009) by two local residents Gaurav Saini and Nitin Gupta. At present, SIFF Chandigarh has 75 members. SIFF till date has helped more than 250 affected families, and are still actively involved in guiding the affected families. “SIFF is a non-funded organisation, wherein the members amicably contribute towards certain activities. The affected families are guided and educated against the misuse of pro woman laws”, said Mandeep Puri, the coordinator, Chandigarh Chapter.
