THE BELOW NEWS WAS PUBLISHED IN THE MONTH OF JANUARY 2010 IN THE NEWSPAPERS. MORE THAN 4 MONTHS ARE OVER AND THE ACCUSED IS ENJOYING LIFE ...LIKE A MAHARANI.
WHAT MORE TO SHOW THE PATHETIC LEVELS OF JUSTICE IN THIS COUNTRY...INDIA.
Chandigarh: Punjab judge Justice Nirmal Yadav, now a judge of the Uttrakhand High Court is in the dock once again.
Two months after she was given a clean chit in a bribery case by the Supreme Court and the Central Government, a Right to Information (RTI) application filed by Hindustan Times reveals that Punjab Governor and Chandigarh administrator General S F Rodrigues had had brought to the notice of the then Chief Justice Tirath Singh Thakur of Punjab and Haryana High Court in August 2008 that Justice Nirmal Yadav, a sitting High Court judge, had been paid Rs 15 lakh as bribe.
Yadav was implicated in the cash-at-door scandal when the Chandigarh police reported that a parcel containing Rs 15 lakh intended for Nirmal Yadav was mistakenly handed over to Justice Nirmaljit Kaur.
Justice Yadav was then a judge in the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Gokhale committee constituted by Supreme Court too had had found that a case is made out against Yadav.
However, the Attorney General Goolam E Vahanvati had later denied sanction to prosecute Yadav saying there was not enough grounds for a case.
The coming out clean of Justice Yadav.despite concurrent findings by three agencies has confused the jurists.
Special public prosecutor Anupam Gupta said, “The case of Justice Yadav is a copybook example of the miscarriage and double standards that pervades the Indian judicial system.”

Police involved in selling ‘unclaimed bodies', reveals RTI query
Rajkumar Soni
JAIPUR: A Right to Information (RTI) query by the father of a murdered young man in Sriganganagar town of Rajasthan has revealed a sordid story of police officers allegedly selling bodies of “unidentified deceased” to private medical colleges for conducting experiments. The next of kin of the deceased were kept in the dark about the illegal transactions.
Rajkumar Soni, father of 19-year-old Rahul who was allegedly murdered in May last year, has lodged an FIR against Sriganganagar Superintendent of Police Umesh Chand Dutta and seven others through a complaint filed in a local court while charging them with handing over his son's body illegally to Tantia Medical College in the city.
Mr. Soni, owner of a jewellery shop in Sriganganagar, told reporters at Pink City Press Club here on Monday that the police did not make any effort to trace his son's relatives after he was found unconscious and gave the corpse illegally to the medical college just 10 minutes after the post-mortem. He later obtained the body from the medical institution on a hefty payment.
Policemen at the Kotwali police station initially told Mr. Soni that Rahul's body had been cremated. When asked for the address of the crematorium, they told him that the corpse had been shifted to the medical college “for its preservation”.
Rahul was found unconscious with heavy injuries at a public park in the town on May 25 last year. An ambulance took him to the District Hospital where he died the next day. The police treated him as an unidentified deceased and gave his body to the medical college in violation of the Transplantation of Human Organs Act, 1994.
Mr. Soni said neither the doctors at the hospital tried to save his son nor did the police make any effort to trace his relatives. The police merely questioned four youngsters and did not try to catch the culprits of murder. Mr. Soni has lodged a separate FIR against four doctors and two nurses under Section 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of IPC.
Through an application filed under the Right to Information Act, 2005, Mr. Soni obtained the details of disposal of unidentified bodies by all police stations in the district. “I was shocked to know that just three police stations gave away 23 bodies illegally to medical colleges during the last five years,” he said.
A gazette notification issued under the Rajasthan Anatomical Act, 1986, lays down the procedure for handing over the bodies of unidentified deceased to medical colleges on the application filed by the latter. The competent officer for Sriganganagar district for the purpose is the Superintendent of P. B. M. Hospital, Bikaner. No corpse can be removed from the hospital before the expiry of 48 hours from autopsy.
“Police officials brazenly violated the legal provisions not only in the case of my son's body but also in all the previous 23 instances. Their act depicts a classic illustration of protectors of law themselves turning into the criminals,” said Mr. Soni.
Mr. Soni alleged that police officers were repeatedly threatening him with dire consequences because his FIR had named the SP, Circle Officer, Station House Officer and owner of the medical college as accused. “Despite the SP being one of the main accused, the investigation has been handed over to the Additional SP of Raisinghnagar, who functions under him,” he said.
Mr. Soni said the district police had given “false information” to the State Assembly when the matter was taken up through a question during the previous session. The police said they had made all efforts to identify the deceased and later shifted the body to Tantia Medical College as there was “no other arrangement” to keep it safe. Mr. Soni further alleged that police officers were involved in a racket of supplying unidentified bodies flowing from neighbouring Punjab in the Indira Gandhi Canal to medical institutions without their post-mortem for the past several years. The police records falsely show these corpses as having been cremated.

INFORMATION UNDER RTI CAN BE PROVIDED TO THE THIRD PARTY
Punjab Chief Information Commissioner R I Singh has asked the police to provide an RTI applicant a copy of the inquiry report into a land deal, in which a woman allegedly sold part of a public street through a registered deed.
Dismissing the police plea that this was third party information as the complainant was not a party to the case, Singh said, “The information is of public interest, as it has been alleged that an individual has fraudulently sold public land. Police have conducted an inquiry and papers related to it are public documents.”
Ludhiana resident Mehar Chand had sought copies of the report of the inquiry conducted by the Economic Offences Wing of the police. The appellant alleged that Sawaranjit Kaur had fraudulently transferred a part of the public street by a registered deed in favour of Harvinder Singh.
Ludhiana SSP (the PIO) and IGP, Zonal-II, Jalandhar (the first appellate authority) were respondents in the case.

Law officer’s views can be disclosed under RTI Act
The full bench of the Punjab State Information Commission on Monday ruled that the legal opinion given by a government law officer to the police cannot be exempted from disclosure under the RTI Act by calling it “assistance” given in confidence for law enforcement.
“What would be the consequences if it is accepted that a police or a legal officer while rendering his assigned duty is merely assisting, in confidence, for law enforcement or security purposes? It would virtually result in placing the entire police force, including the law officers attached with it, out of the purview of the RTI Act because every decision or step taken by police officers could be construed as ‘assistance’ for law enforcement,” the bench said.
The bench gave the ruling while hearing the case of Gurbir Singh, son of former Punjab Chief Minister Justice Gurnam Singh. He had sought copies of all legal opinions given by Amarjot Sidhu, Joint Director, Prosecution and Litigation, Ludhiana, to SSPs of Ludhiana (Urban), Ludhiana (Rural) and Khanna and Ludhiana Range DIG.

GETTING INFO UNDER RTI IS NOT EASY IN PUNJAB.
HOW FUNNY!!! THE STATE INFORMATION COMMISSION OF PUNJAB IS REFERRING A JUNIOR AUTHORITY AS THE APPELLATE AUTHORITY.
CLEARLY SHOWS HOW IR-RESPONSIBLY THE WORKS ARE DONE EVEN IN THE MOST RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENTS.
READ THE STORY AND DETAILS BELOW:
Chandigarh, April 14 An advocate here had to wait for about a month in vain for a piece of information he had sought from the Director General of Police in Punjab under the Right to Information Act and finally knocked at the door of the state information commission to get his appeal admitted.
Advocate Sushil Gautam had sought information from the DGP regarding the vehicles owned by the Punjab Police and their insurance. The information was not given to him within the stipulated period of 30 days. Aggrieved, Gautam moved the State Information Commission to file an appeal which was turned down by the Commission. Refusing to admit the appeal, the Commission replied “Being a first appeal under the RTI Act, it may be filed before appropriate first appellate authority” little knowing that the first appellate authority is ADGP (Administration). Taken aback by the reply received from the Commission, Gautam wrote back.
“I had asked for information from the DGP Punjab Police vide application dated September 29, 2007. I did not get any reply, thus appeal was referred before your good self, but astonishingly you have declined to interfere on the ground that Punjab State Information Commission (PSIC) is the second appellate authority and thus appeal has to go to ADGP (Administration) who is the first appellate authority in Punjab Police. Most humbly it is submitted that the information was requisitioned from DGP who is senior to the ADGP. It is not understood as to how ADGP can be the authority to entertain the appeal against the inaction of the DGP” Gautam’s letter said. However, the appeal has been admitted and the case is listed for hearing in the last week of April.
Information sought from the DGP under the RTI Act:
* How many vehicles does Punjab Police have which are registered with the Road Transport Authorities in the name of DGP, Punjab Police ?
* How many vehicles does Punjab Police have which are not registered with Road Transport Authorities?
* The vehicles owned by the Punjab Police, are they exempted from paying the road tax? If yes, under which authority/provision?
* Are the vehicles owned by the Punjab Police and registered in the name of DGP, Punjab Police, insured as required by the Motor Vehicle Act ?
* Are the vehicles owned by the Punjab Police insured? If no, then under which authority and provision of law?

PITIBLE STATE OF AN INDIAN HUSBAND
Man stabs self to escape police custody in Bangalore
Mid-Day.com, Tuesday May 18, 2010, Bangalore
Suresh Kumar, a 30-year-old accused in dowry harassment case, gave police the
blushes by stabbing himself, getting admitted to the hospital and then escaping
with the help of his relatives right under their nose.
A resident of Mini Bakshi Garden, Kumar was picked up by the Cottonpet police
from Mysore Road on May 12, in a dowry harassment case filed against him by his
wife.
A police team led by Sub-Inspector L Nagraj was escorting Suresh from his house
to the station for questioning, when he picked up an iron rod lying on the
roadside and stabbed himself.
The police rushed him to Victoria Hospital, where he was treated at the
outpatient ward. He was discharged after a few hours and taken into custody
again.
The police were waiting for private transport outside the hospital when Kumar's
mother and sister came and created a ruckus blaming the police for their kin's
condition.
While Nagraj and his men tried to pacify the bawling relatives, the mother and
sister stealthily got Kumar into an autorickshaw on the pretext of enquiring
about his health and then sped away. Efforts to chase the vehicle proved futile.
Nagraj, attached to the Cottonpet police station, filed a complaint with the
Victoria Hospital police.
He immediately informed his seniors and set out on a manhunt for Kumar and his
family, but in vain.
After searching for four days, Nagraj decided to file a formal complaint.
The Victoria Hospital police said that they were looking for Kumar.
"We have deployed plainclothes policemen near his residence to keep a tab on his
family, but none of them who visited Kumar at the hospital is to be seen," a
source from the police said.

Surat woman alleges dowry harassment; case against husband, kin

Posted: Thu May 20 2010, 03:19 hrs
They had made their match through a matrimonial website, but the Internet
marriage had gone wrong for the Pune boy and Surat girl in nearly two years.
While 27-year-old Swati Singh accuses Chetan Agnihotri and his family of
harassing her for dowry, the husband says Swati was using pressure tactics and
false allegations to separate him from his old parents.
Swati, an MBA, has filed an FIR of dowry demand, mental and physical torture
against her husband, his mother, father and sister with the Surat police. A
Surat police team had landed in Pune in February and arrested all of them. They
were released on bail by a Surat court after a day in custody.
Surat police inspector Krishnaben Dabhi said the four were booked for dowry
demand and mental and physical torture. "They were arrested; and released by the
court on bail. We have also filed a chargesheet against them," she said.
Swati is a Rajasthani Rajput and Agnihotri a Maharashtrian Brahmin.
They had been living in Vimannagar area here after their wedding.
Swati said her mental and physical torture had begun right after their week-long
honeymoon. "A week after honeymoon, my mother-in-law started finding faults with
my eating habits. My father-in-law and sister-in-law too joined in. All the
three used to abuse me for bringing what they said was paltry dowry. They used
to repeatedly ask me to bring more dowry from my parents."
Swati's brother Ishant Singh alleged that his family paid Rs 5 lakh in cash to
Chetan's family at the time of wedding. "But the demands never ended. We have
given them a washing machine, LCD and several other electronic appliances. And
now, Chetan is demanding Rs 12 lakh for buying a Honda Civic."
Ishant said his sister used to come home every third month after the wedding.
However, Chetan denies all the allegations. "I earn so much that I don't need
anybody's money. In fact, during our marriage I had told Swati's father that we
should have a registered marriage and not waste money. She was my dream girl.
But now what she had done to my family, it has hurt me and every member of my
family badly. I will not forgive her."
Chetan alleges that Swati is acting at the behest of her mother. "My
mother-in-law is provoking Swati to pressure me into living separately with her.
How can I leave my old parents? They are not in a position to look after
themselves. When a woman makes a complaint, the police immediately acts against
the husband. But, they should first understand the facts. My family has gone
through hell for no fault of ours. Marital disputes should not go to the
police."

Perpetrators of Elder Abuse in India – Daugther-in-law empowered by Indian Government?
Elder Abuse is not a crime committed by strangers. It is harm done to an older person by a relative, friend, or anyone the elder depends on for basic needs. The HOME is the main locale where elder spends his/her most of time and HOME icons a peaceful, caring and loving family. If the family is kept intact with care & blessings of elders, peace & love of young ones and fun & play of children, Elder Abuse can be eradicated totally from society.
In India, being primarily the follower of Hinduism, respect of the elderly because they are the parents of the present generation was a major concept in society. India was able to elude itself from the problem of elder abuse mainly because of it’s well defined and ethically regulated strong family system & value based marriage system but misconceived concept of women empowerment of Government of India has changed the things drastically in recent past and Elder Abuse has taken up upright rising trend.
Besides, other factors like poverty, urbanization, lifestyle changes, industrialization etc., the main factor contributing in this rise is the Government’s apathy towards this social problem. The Government instead of framing policies or legislations for protection of rights of elders in family has played a role of catalyst in promoting Elder Abuse by enacting and enforcing various gender biased matrimonial laws which are casting heavy toll on basic root of Indian society i.e. traditional Indian family system and is resulting in breaking of families. The breakup of family system and growing materialism have eroded the cultural values of the Indians. These matrimonial laws like IPC 498a, domestic violence Act,2005, CrPC125 etc. which favours (both in spirit & enforcement) and are enacted for only a particular gender/party i.e wife, has opened a vicious channel of Elder aAbuse at HOME as the vulnerable aged are the most likely to be abused.
In today’s India, where woman/girls are viewed equally in every aspect of life and are enjoying special equality with men besides the greed for easy money making, almost none of the newly wed wife wants to settle in a joint family or even with parents of her husband and feels restricted & watched of her independence so it can not be expected of her to carry the caring attitude for elders in family . The parents of bride being well aware of the upbringing of their daughter knows her incapability of discharging her matrimonial obligations also vitiates her mind and feedback her to abandon her in-laws and live independent life with full & sole right on her husband’s earnings. On an irrational & ironical justification or reasoning that “ even she has abandoned her parent’s house to marry him” , she insists on living separate so that nobody would even raise an eyebrow to her misdeeds and her incapability.

They are abused on account of their dignity, respect, health, finance & mental stability and are forced to live remaining days of their life in social stigma of criminal.
The possibility of easy misuse of these gender biased laws has lured the Daughter-in-law of today’s India so much that the Courts of India are piling up with the false matrimonial cases and the high rise in elderly abuse in the society is going on unnoticed.
Message on “ World Elder Abuse Awareness Day”, 15th June,2010.
A sincere appeal to Indian Government that if it cannot protect elders in country from abuse atleast It should not promote and propagate it with enacting & enforcing gender biased family breaking laws in India.
In India, being primarily the follower of Hinduism, respect of the elderly because they are the parents of the present generation was a major concept in society. India was able to elude itself from the problem of elder abuse mainly because of it’s well defined and ethically regulated strong family system & value based marriage system but misconceived concept of women empowerment of Government of India has changed the things drastically in recent past and Elder Abuse has taken up upright rising trend.
Besides, other factors like poverty, urbanization, lifestyle changes, industrialization etc., the main factor contributing in this rise is the Government’s apathy towards this social problem. The Government instead of framing policies or legislations for protection of rights of elders in family has played a role of catalyst in promoting Elder Abuse by enacting and enforcing various gender biased matrimonial laws which are casting heavy toll on basic root of Indian society i.e. traditional Indian family system and is resulting in breaking of families. The breakup of family system and growing materialism have eroded the cultural values of the Indians. These matrimonial laws like IPC 498a, domestic violence Act,2005, CrPC125 etc. which favours (both in spirit & enforcement) and are enacted for only a particular gender/party i.e wife, has opened a vicious channel of Elder aAbuse at HOME as the vulnerable aged are the most likely to be abused.
In today’s India, where woman/girls are viewed equally in every aspect of life and are enjoying special equality with men besides the greed for easy money making, almost none of the newly wed wife wants to settle in a joint family or even with parents of her husband and feels restricted & watched of her independence so it can not be expected of her to carry the caring attitude for elders in family . The parents of bride being well aware of the upbringing of their daughter knows her incapability of discharging her matrimonial obligations also vitiates her mind and feedback her to abandon her in-laws and live independent life with full & sole right on her husband’s earnings. On an irrational & ironical justification or reasoning that “ even she has abandoned her parent’s house to marry him” , she insists on living separate so that nobody would even raise an eyebrow to her misdeeds and her incapability. In this process, the husband is made to realize that he is left with only two options with him either to “(i) abandon or neglect his parents and relatives” or to
Here comes the role of gender biased laws passed by our great visionary Government to empower the women…………………… wife, knowing fully that legal system & mechanism is in her favor and she can dictate her terms forcefully, she in order to fulfill this ulterior motive lashes physical, economical, verbal, mental, & pschycological abuse on husband & elder in-laws in their own home with the help & support from her paternal family and dreams about the day when her husband abandons his old age parents & succumb to her unscrupulous demands.

MARITAL LAWS - FAMILY BREAKING AND MONEY MAKING INDUSTRY
The above quotation may sound ambiguous and paradoxical to the
reader in its initial stage, but a deeper thought into it, contemplation and a
thorough study about it might prove the truth of it. The society is totally
unaware of the real facts behind the so called "The Protective Wife-Centric
Laws". They have become, "Destructive" laws" for the husband, his family, the
Indian society and mankind as a whole.
The statistics given below proves this fact.
1. 70,000 marital cases per year.
2. Average alimony of Rs. 20 Lacs.
3. Rs. 14, 000 crores business shared by the police, the lawyers and the judges.
Why will the Government, the Home – Ministry and the Law-Makers make amendments
in this money – making illustrious industry which flourishes well with a lavish
income to all government departments? It reduces the load of the government
exchequer as well as it does not require the government to bother about the pay
of its employees in various departments as each one is getting more than the
actual salary by these "other sources of income" which is seldom questioned by
any authorities. Cases of poor people are seldom registered as no income is made
in such cases. The police and the lawyers like to take cases of the well-to do
and affluent families from where money can be extorted regularly. One may just
visit a court and he finds the lawyers asking for any case. It may be noted here
that the Karnataka Home Ministry has declared that "Section 498A is working
well". Ironically it is working well for all the corrupted departments of the
government as they are minting money from this whopping industry of corruption
and mal-practices.
Average no. of cases filed against a husband.
1. 498A.
2. Domestic Violence Act.
3. 125 CrPC, maintenance case, including other cases from where the wife
takes maintenance simultaneously.
4. Child-Custody.
5. Divorce.
All these cases can be filed by the wife in courts in the same city or different
cities to harass the husband and his family. Any marital dispute when taken to
the police station by the disgruntled wife either to gain personal scores or to
revenge the in-laws becomes a source of income for the police. For a few
thousand rupees a false case is registered without any proper documents or any
investigation only on a verbal complaint from a wife or a daughter-in-law
(DIL).without any proofs or evidences. The husband and his family are not
allowed to speak up a word in their defense and the whole family (husband,
father, mother, brother, sister, the aged parents and the children) are put
behind bars.
Then comes "Bail" part where the lawyers and the judiciary play a meaty role.
The lawyers extort a huge amount from the distraught husband and his family on
the pretext of getting bail orders from the judiciary where the proceedings go
on without any "transparency".
The ordeal of the innocent husband and his family does not end here .It is just
the beginning. One after another cases are filed against him and his family. He
is burdened with not only the tension of running his family but also bear the
fees of the various cases and the lawyers, the maintenance orders passed by the
court to the disgruntled wife and even the expenses of travels if the cases are
filed in other cities which is generally done by wives to harass him further.
The "Fear Factor" plays a vital role in the whole horrific drama. The police
terrorise the innocent family of husband with dire consequences and extort
money. The lawyers go a step further by consoling the distort family that he is
the "Savior" and they should rely on him totally. Thus he too cuffs up a huge
amount as fees from the husband and drags the case.
Then comes the role of the judiciary. Even though at the initial stage when it
is evident that it is a false and "open and shut" case the judges give date
after date and harass the husband and family for years. The innocent husband is
advised to make settlements in the form of monetary compensation to the
adulterous wife. The whole system including the police, the lawyers, and the
judiciary act as "Brokers" and are the "Benefactors" in this money-making
industry which is termed as "Protective Marital laws" by the law makers.
The NCW chair-person Dr. Girija Vyas has taken up the cause of the honor killing
of Nirupama Pathak of Jharkhand who is supposedly killed by her own family. This
case would have covertly been transferred into a "Dowry death", had it been in
the in-laws home. Would Dr Girija Vyas then stand up for the women in the
husband's family (mothers and sisters)? May be not, as they have no place in the
women's ministry.
Although the government is aware of the random "misuse" of the laws like
Section 498A, Domestic Violence, Maintenance laws, Child custody and Divorce but
is reluctant to make any changes in these laws which are so "profitable" for
the whole system.
Approximately 48% of the cases filed in the courts are of "Marital disputes".
Hence no one wants to lose the share of booty from this money-making industry.
The tax-paying husband and his family become total "bakras" at the behest of
this whole system whose salaries are paid from the tax given by the hard-earned
money of these innocent husbands
The recent case of Mohammed Ajmal Aamir Kasav is an example of the speedy
disposal of such a severe case of which the judiciary should take a lesson. It
is disgusting that the judges take years to decide "petty marital cases".
The demand of the present day is to bring "Transparency" in the court
proceedings and to grant "Justice" to the innocent husband and his family.
Marital disputes should not go to the police stations but to family courts and
marriage counselors who are properly trained in these matters. These disputes
should be settled in a limited "time frame" and not dragged unnecessarily for
years. Punishments for filing false cases should be severe and in accordance
with law so as to check the misuse. Compensation should be granted to the
aggrieved and harassed family of the husband if the case proves to be false.
The Family Breaking Laws
The laws meant for the protection of women (read wife) are formulated on the
recommendations of the Feminists, the NCW and WCD Ministry which are one-sided,
biased and detrimental to family life. Since these laws have many loopholes they
are "misused" by young women to harass the in-laws. Once a family matter goes to
police-stations and courts, there is no scope of reconciliation which ultimately
results in breaking of families. Does the Indian Government want a
"Family-less-society" like the US for the future generations?
The Responsibility of the Media
The media being a very powerful means of reaching to the masses should bear
certain responsibilities. Why do the media try to increase the TRP by showing
one-sided stories of women being harassed by the in-laws? The media should
refrain from using derogatory and resentful language for the husbands and
in-laws. The current misuse of laws by wives and daughter-in-law is known to
every one, why the media does not take up the responsibility of high-lighting
these issues which can also prove to be an effective method to increase the TRP
too which is the hot current issue these days?
Hence there should be no further delay by any government system as well as media
to bring the "Wanted Change" in the society. Or else the police may rather
arrest the husband and his family and put them behind bars as no investigation
is done nor evidences considered either by the police or the courts, only the
verbal complaints made by the woman and her relatives is considered as the
"gospel truth". Let the government start a "Jail Bharo Andolan" where the
husband and his family can spend their life at the expense of the state
treasury, as the famous saying "Justice delayed is justice denied" is very true
for the victimized and innocent husband and his family.

THE REAL FACE OF INDIAN DAUGHTER-IN-LAWS
चेन्नै ।।
महिला अदालत ने बांझ बताए जाने पर अपनी सास की हत्या कर देने वाली एक महिला को उम्र कैद की सजा सुनाई है
। अदालत ने सोमवार को यह फैसला दिया।
पुलिस के मुताबिक शांताबाई 31 मई 2007 को अपने ट्रिप्लीकेन आवास में मृत पाई गई थी। कथित तौर पर उसके शरीर पर 79 जगह चाकू से वार किए गए थे। पुलिस को पता चला कि शांता बाई और उनकी बहू लक्ष्मी में अनबन रहा करती थी। दोनों अक्सर झगड़ते थे।
इस सूचना के आधार पर पुलिस ने लक्ष्मी से पूछताछ की तो लक्ष्मी ने हत्या की बात कबूल ली। पूछताछ में उसने बताया कि शांताबाई उस पर बांझपन का संदेह जताती थी और छोटी-छोटी बातों पर उससे झगड़ती थी। ऐसे ही एक झगड़े के दौरान जब शांताबाई ने उसे बांझ कहा तो उसने शांताबाई को पीटा, स्टोर रूम में धकेल दिया और किचेन के चाकू से उसके पूरे शरीर को गोद डाला। पुलिस ने वह चाकू भी बरामद कर लिया।
मामले से जुडे साक्ष्यों पर विचार करने के बाद अदालत ने लक्ष्मी को आजीवन कैद और 10,000 रुपए जुर्माने की सजा सुनाई।

WCD-receipe of DACOITY CHILD KIDNAPPING FRAUD CHEATING garnished with FALSE
This is a consolidated news report from star news and delhi aajtak on 18 may
2010.
The BAHU (DIL ) drugged SAAS ( mother in law ) with a substance mixed in a
glass of mango shake and ranscaked the house of her inlaws to abscond with
jewellary/cash worth 51 lacs and the child. She had also cheated other
relatives of her husband who got into the traps of her confident web of
lies and sympathy gaining tactics. She had hatched this conspiracy with her
own parents and siblings as accomplices.
The climax of the story would be predictably routine. Quintessentially even
if Delhi police manages to nab this typical indian Bahu and her gang she
will dole out a generic sobby dowry harassment script embellished with
crocodile tears claiming all that she stole and fraudently cheated as her
ISTRIDHAN and our great indian police shall be too happy and quick to file a
IPC 498a case and put the true victims (MIL and husband's relatives ) behind
the bars.

How Abusive Women Brainwash You
How do so many smart men fall for toxic, abusive women? Why do they remain in painfully self-destructive relationships when their higher intelligence knows better? Many men frequently cite, “but I love her.” Do they love these women or have they been brainwashed by abusive personalities? Are they confusing love with dependence on their partner/torturer—a kind of Stockholm Syndrome?
Emotional and physical abuse wears you down over time. It erodes your confidence, independence, sense of efficacy and good judgment. Successful abusers use brainwashing tactics to disassemble your personality and extinguish your natural responses to abuse. In other words, you become numb and submissive instead of fleeing or fighting back in the face of her abuse.
Abusive women establish control over their targets by using “brainwashing tactics similar to those used on prisoners of war, hostages, or members of a cult” (Mega, Mega, Mega & Harris, 2000). Most abusers instinctively know these behaviors. Their behavior is mostly unconscious; they’re natural predators. However, some abusive women know exactly what they’re doing. In such cases, I’d argue that they’re sociopaths and not the garden variety narcissist, borderline and/or histrionic.
Brainwashing Techniques
In the 1950s, psychologist Robert Jay Lifton studied POW’s from the Korean War and Chinese prison camps. He concluded that these soldiers “underwent a multi-step process that began with attacks on the prisoner’s sense of self and ended with what appeared to be a change in beliefs” (Layton). Lifton defined 10 brainwashing steps that occur in 3 stages.
Stage I: Breaking Down the Self
1. Assault on Identity. “You are not who you think you are.” This step is comprised of an unrelenting attack on your identity or ego. For example, You’re a jerk. You’re a loser. You’re selfish. You don’t deserve me. You don’t have any friends. Your family doesn’t care about you. You don’t make enough money. These kinds of attacks have a destabilizing effect that breaks your stride and keeps you off kilter. The assault continues until you become “exhausted, confused and disoriented,” which causes your sense of self, beliefs and values to weaken.
2. Guilt.
“You are bad.” Once your identity crisis sets in, you’re then criticized for offenses great, small and imaginary. You snore. You chew your food to loudly. You’re not sensitive enough. You’re too sensitive. You breath wrong. You blink too much. You don’t fold the towels correctly. You never do this. You always do that. Why can’t you be more like so and so? The constant arguments and criticisms that cast you as the bad guy make you believe you deserve to be punished and treated badly. You feel a general sense of shame, that you’re wrong and that everything you do, don’t do, say or don’t say is wrong.
Humiliation and shaming tactics destroy your confidence and make you feel bad about yourself, which puts you in a malleable and submissive state. Shame is a form of paralysis. Inducing a sense of shame doesn’t just make you feel bad; it make you believe that you are bad.
3. Self-Betrayal.
“Agree with me that you are bad.” Because you’re now disoriented and feeling a pervasive sense of guilt and shame, she can manipulate you into going against your own best interests. You forsake your own needs and make choices that are detrimental to your well-being. This is the time when an abusive spouse or girlfriend will begin to isolate you and/or get you to turn against your friends and family. The betrayal of yourself, your beliefs and the people you once felt loyal to increases your feelings of shame, guilt and loss and also makes you easier to control.
4. Breaking Point.
“Who am I, where am I and what am I supposed to do?” You no longer know who you are. You’re confused and disoriented from gaslighting and constantly being fed a distorted version of yourself and reality. You may feel like you’re having a nervous breakdown or feel depressed, anxious, traumatized and a host of other negative emotional and physical symptoms like insomnia, paranoia and digestive problems.
You question your judgment, perceptions and sense of reality. She tells you she loves you yet continues to treat you horribly. You believe she loves you and that you must be a colossal jerk for her to always be so upset. If she’s successfully isolated you or gotten you to isolate yourself, you can’t reality test her version of events or receive outside support. By this time, she’s made you totally dependent upon her and solely focused upon pleasing her, gaining her approval and avoiding her wrath or disapproval. You probably feel completely alone. Alternatively, if you’re still in contact with friends and family, you fear that if you tell them what’s going on that they wouldn’t believe you or wouldn’t understand.
Stage II: The Possibility of Salvation
5. Leniency.
“I can help you.” This is what I like to call the tyranny of small mercies. Periodically, this kind of woman will offer you some small kindness or you’ll have a “fun” afternoon together in which she appears normal. Because your perception has been so warped, the tiniest act of kindness or absence of overt hostility and/or icy withdrawal fosters gratitude, relief and a sense of adoration within you. In reality, she’s not kind and she’s not normal.
The disparity between her bad behavior and good/neutral behavior is so great that the simple act of heating up a can of soup for you makes her seem like Lady Benevolence. Her minuscule and infrequent acts of normalcy cause you to romanticize her. “This is why I love her. She can be so sweet.” It also causes you to experience a destructive sense of false hope. “If only she could be this way all the time. Maybe she will if I just try harder to please her.” The only way you can please this kind of woman is by continuing to allow her to harm you.
6. Compulsion to Confess.
“You can help yourself.” You’re so grateful for the small kindnesses she bestows in between periods of covert and overt abuse that you agree with her criticisms and devaluations. For example, you agree that your friends are bad for you and that your family is controlling and dysfunctional (um, hello, pot meet kettle). You promise to be more attentive and sensitive to her needs and see your needs as evidence of your selfishness.
Alternatively, you agree with her just to make the rages, derision and accusations stop. By the way, this is why torture techniques don’t work for intelligence purposes. People will say anything to make the torture stop. By this time, your personality has changed. You’re hypervigilant to her moods, ego gratification demands and wishes.
You’re overwhelmed and confused by her accusations and criticisms. Subsequently, you feel a pervasive sense of shame. However, you’re so disoriented that you don’t know what you’re guilty of anymore. You just feel wrong.
The Goal: Pointless Control with No End to the Abuse
Individuals or groups who use brainwashing techniques are deliberately trying to convert followers, change political allegiance or get people to buy their brand of soda. The ultimate goal is to breakdown your identity and replace your belief system with their doctrines in order to make you an obedient follower. Once they achieve their aims, the psychological torture stops because you’ve become a faithful acolyte.
Unlike professional terrorists, cult leaders and prison camp commandants, abusive narcissistic, borderline, histrionic and sociopathic wives and girlfriends don’t have an end goal for their brainwashing techniques. They don’t know what they want. They just know that they want to control you in order to feel in control of themselves. This is why they don’t progress past the sixth brainwashing step and complete the process through the third stage, Rebuilding the Self.
By keeping you stuck in the Possibility of Salvation stage, you become locked into perpetual hoop jumping mode. She says if you do x, y and z she’ll finally be happy. You do x, y and z and then she either has a new set of expectations, demands and requirements or tells you that you didn’t do x, y and z to her satisfaction or that you only did it to make her happy not because you wanted to do it. You’re caught in a maddening cycle of trying to please her and not being able to please her with no relief or “salvation” in sight.
Abusive borderline, narcissistic and histrionic women’s moods, beliefs and realities change from day to day and, in extreme cases, minute to minute. They want whatever their current mood or insecurity dictates and change their beliefs, demands and perceptions accordingly. The only doctrine they offer is, “You’re wrong and bad” and “It’s all about me, my needs and my feelings” and “you need to fight for me” or “you need to fight for this relationship” (never mind that she is the one who is destroying it). This keeps you destabilized and in a perpetual state of guilt, shame, hypervigilance and confusion.
She puts you into no win situations, double binds and keeps raising the bar of her expectations for as long as you let her. You never get to reach the third stage of a new identity that brings some relief. She keeps you stuck in the cycle of abuse where she will psychologically torture you until there’s nothing left of you.
Next week, I will discuss other aspects and techniques of brainwashing and how you can deprogram yourself.
by Dr Tara J. Palmatier, PsyD
Emotional and physical abuse wears you down over time. It erodes your confidence, independence, sense of efficacy and good judgment. Successful abusers use brainwashing tactics to disassemble your personality and extinguish your natural responses to abuse. In other words, you become numb and submissive instead of fleeing or fighting back in the face of her abuse.
Abusive women establish control over their targets by using “brainwashing tactics similar to those used on prisoners of war, hostages, or members of a cult” (Mega, Mega, Mega & Harris, 2000). Most abusers instinctively know these behaviors. Their behavior is mostly unconscious; they’re natural predators. However, some abusive women know exactly what they’re doing. In such cases, I’d argue that they’re sociopaths and not the garden variety narcissist, borderline and/or histrionic.
Brainwashing Techniques
In the 1950s, psychologist Robert Jay Lifton studied POW’s from the Korean War and Chinese prison camps. He concluded that these soldiers “underwent a multi-step process that began with attacks on the prisoner’s sense of self and ended with what appeared to be a change in beliefs” (Layton). Lifton defined 10 brainwashing steps that occur in 3 stages.
Stage I: Breaking Down the Self
1. Assault on Identity. “You are not who you think you are.” This step is comprised of an unrelenting attack on your identity or ego. For example, You’re a jerk. You’re a loser. You’re selfish. You don’t deserve me. You don’t have any friends. Your family doesn’t care about you. You don’t make enough money. These kinds of attacks have a destabilizing effect that breaks your stride and keeps you off kilter. The assault continues until you become “exhausted, confused and disoriented,” which causes your sense of self, beliefs and values to weaken.
2. Guilt.
“You are bad.” Once your identity crisis sets in, you’re then criticized for offenses great, small and imaginary. You snore. You chew your food to loudly. You’re not sensitive enough. You’re too sensitive. You breath wrong. You blink too much. You don’t fold the towels correctly. You never do this. You always do that. Why can’t you be more like so and so? The constant arguments and criticisms that cast you as the bad guy make you believe you deserve to be punished and treated badly. You feel a general sense of shame, that you’re wrong and that everything you do, don’t do, say or don’t say is wrong.
Humiliation and shaming tactics destroy your confidence and make you feel bad about yourself, which puts you in a malleable and submissive state. Shame is a form of paralysis. Inducing a sense of shame doesn’t just make you feel bad; it make you believe that you are bad.
3. Self-Betrayal.
“Agree with me that you are bad.” Because you’re now disoriented and feeling a pervasive sense of guilt and shame, she can manipulate you into going against your own best interests. You forsake your own needs and make choices that are detrimental to your well-being. This is the time when an abusive spouse or girlfriend will begin to isolate you and/or get you to turn against your friends and family. The betrayal of yourself, your beliefs and the people you once felt loyal to increases your feelings of shame, guilt and loss and also makes you easier to control.
4. Breaking Point.
“Who am I, where am I and what am I supposed to do?” You no longer know who you are. You’re confused and disoriented from gaslighting and constantly being fed a distorted version of yourself and reality. You may feel like you’re having a nervous breakdown or feel depressed, anxious, traumatized and a host of other negative emotional and physical symptoms like insomnia, paranoia and digestive problems.
You question your judgment, perceptions and sense of reality. She tells you she loves you yet continues to treat you horribly. You believe she loves you and that you must be a colossal jerk for her to always be so upset. If she’s successfully isolated you or gotten you to isolate yourself, you can’t reality test her version of events or receive outside support. By this time, she’s made you totally dependent upon her and solely focused upon pleasing her, gaining her approval and avoiding her wrath or disapproval. You probably feel completely alone. Alternatively, if you’re still in contact with friends and family, you fear that if you tell them what’s going on that they wouldn’t believe you or wouldn’t understand.
Stage II: The Possibility of Salvation
5. Leniency.
“I can help you.” This is what I like to call the tyranny of small mercies. Periodically, this kind of woman will offer you some small kindness or you’ll have a “fun” afternoon together in which she appears normal. Because your perception has been so warped, the tiniest act of kindness or absence of overt hostility and/or icy withdrawal fosters gratitude, relief and a sense of adoration within you. In reality, she’s not kind and she’s not normal.
The disparity between her bad behavior and good/neutral behavior is so great that the simple act of heating up a can of soup for you makes her seem like Lady Benevolence. Her minuscule and infrequent acts of normalcy cause you to romanticize her. “This is why I love her. She can be so sweet.” It also causes you to experience a destructive sense of false hope. “If only she could be this way all the time. Maybe she will if I just try harder to please her.” The only way you can please this kind of woman is by continuing to allow her to harm you.
6. Compulsion to Confess.
“You can help yourself.” You’re so grateful for the small kindnesses she bestows in between periods of covert and overt abuse that you agree with her criticisms and devaluations. For example, you agree that your friends are bad for you and that your family is controlling and dysfunctional (um, hello, pot meet kettle). You promise to be more attentive and sensitive to her needs and see your needs as evidence of your selfishness.
Alternatively, you agree with her just to make the rages, derision and accusations stop. By the way, this is why torture techniques don’t work for intelligence purposes. People will say anything to make the torture stop. By this time, your personality has changed. You’re hypervigilant to her moods, ego gratification demands and wishes.
You’re overwhelmed and confused by her accusations and criticisms. Subsequently, you feel a pervasive sense of shame. However, you’re so disoriented that you don’t know what you’re guilty of anymore. You just feel wrong.

RTI exposes questionable dowry eradication commitment of WCD Ministry
Dowry & Extravagant marraiges affects fathers of the brides , the most, why????
We hear many women's organizations clamoring to get media attention for eradicating dowry. However they ignore the very basic fact that ultimately the daughter is just the receiver of the dowry and the actual dowry giver is ultimately a man who may be the father/brother of the bride. These males in the family work hard and spend their life’s savings to ensure that the women of their family can have a wedding of their dreams. Many fathers spend their entire PF savings and retirement benefits at the weddings of their daughters. Societal pressure accompanied with an zeal to outdo others drive these families to spend their way into bankruptcy in weddings. Many fathers are left with little or nothing left for their old age.
Whereas everybody sympathizes with the bride as a victim of dowry , no one sympathizes with the father or brother who loses his life’s savings and has little in his old age for himself and his family after spending on a extravagant marriage. So the first question we need to ask is that is the daughter the real victim of dowry or is it another man?
What has the government done so far to eradicate extravagant marraiges to reduce the burden on the bride's fathers ?
The Dowry Eradication Scam
The Women and Child Ministry and the National Commission of Women claim that they have been "hard" at work to eradicate dowry by promoting laws like 498a and DV act etc . However the most easiest way to achieve this is to is to Ban or stop promoting extravagant marriages and punish and ostracize dowry givers . However doing this will anger the marriage industry which the government does not want . The Indian marriage industry today is more than Rs 600,000 crores ( that’s about $ 150 Billion ) and no politician wants to touch the donations they get from this industry.
See Article on the size and dimensions of the Indian marraige Industry .
Lets "Decreases" the punishment for Dowry givers seems to the recommendation of the WCD Ministry
The WCD ministry naturally to protect such a big industry on one side has proposed an outrageous recommendation that they will propose to reduce the punishment for Dowry Givers . It is to be noted that even though there is punishment recommended in the Indian Penal Code for givers , not one woman or family has been convicted for giving dowry as of now. However the WCD ministry wants to believe different and knows that if Dowry is eradicated so will the Indian marriage industry and is working head over heels to safeguard it .
See article on how the Government is promoting dowry
Advertising Budget shows the true reality of WCD ministry's commitment
Eradicating dowry speeches are normally given very passionately amongst foreign delegates in 5 star hotels , all the while chomping on exquisite cuisines. at the tax payers money . However you will find the same ministers and government appointees drinking imported alcohol and dancing at extravagant weddings the very next day forgetting that if the marriage fails whatever has been spent will be called dowry. They also forget that that India has a law against giving dowry which needs to imposed .
The Women and Child development Ministry website on media activities shows that during the fiscal year of 2008-2009 they spent about Rs 52 Crores on advertising .
http://wcd.nic.in/wcdactivity/MediaUnitactivity.htm
Out of the 15 advertisements issued in the print media 4 are exclusively for the Birth and Death anniversaries of the members of the Ruling Gandhi Family . I cannot help wonder how that helps women and children of India and why is the WCD Ministry even celebrating or mourning the deaths of the members of the Gandhi Family ?
From the 52 crores they have spent so far , not a single rupee for any sort of advertisements for eradicating dowry , eradicating extravagant marriages , or creating an anti dowry hotline where exchange of dowry can be reported and givers and takers can be punished right there. An RTI was filed with the WCD ministry (see RTI response below) confirms this hypocrisy .The Ministry replies that they have spent NIL amount of money for advertising campaigns aimed at eradicating dowry and/or extravagant marraiges.
The questions remains that why has the government on one side tried to protect the marriage industry and allowed it to balloon to such mammoth proportions by allowing extravagant marriages on one side and draconised and the existing laws to show a facade of commitment to eradicating dowry? The truth of the matter is that in order to safeguard the marriage industry and the industrialists benefiting from the marriage industry the WCD ministry or the government has never stopped extravagant marriages , instead it allows the money to be spent first and then rants that dowry has been exchanged and penalizes the husband and his family. This double face by the WCD clearly shows dubious intentions.
How is Pakistan Dealing with the problem
Pakistan and India having originated from the same subcontinent 50 years ago also deals with the same problem , however the Pakistanis have found a very effective solution to curtail extravagant marraiges by implementing the one dish law.The one dish law legally controls extravagance weddings , cointrols dowry giving and provides relief to the family of the brides from spending their life's savings on marraiges .
The One dish law legally limits the numbers of dishes in any wedding to only one . Pakistan in order to save the tax payers money and provide relief to the poor masses, has made it mandatory that not more than one dish will be offered during any function, including wedding ceremonies. The Indian government should stop ranting about dowry and just implement the one dish law in India too to eradicate dowry once and for all . Lets hope what Pakistan has thought today India will think tomorrow.

WOMAN FIGHTS FOR HER HUSBAND.
THANK GOD, IN A WORLD DOMINATED BY WITCHES WHO ARE JUST ON A LOOK OUT TO SUCK THE BLOOD OF THEIR HUSBANDS AND IN-LAWS THERE ARE STILL A FEW WOMEN (AS REMAINING R WITCHES) LEFT.
Ahmedabad: The Metropolitan magistrate has directed the Vatva police to submit a status report and file an explanation regarding a complaint that they refused to register. Complainant Madina Bano had approached the Vatva police to lodge a complaint against her father Amruddin Sheikh and her four brothers, as they had threatened to kill her husband.
Bano has been married to one Mohammed Ishaq Sheikh for the last eleven years. Case details say that Bano had, due to pressure from her father and brothers, registered a case of domestic violence against her husband thrice. Each time, during the court settlement, the men extracted money from her husband.
However, for the last three years, Bano had been happy with her husband, which irked her father and brothers. A month ago, they assaulted Sheikh and threatened Bano that her husband and children would be killed, if she did not divorce him.
Following this incident, Bano went to the Vatva police on April 15 with her husband, to file a complaint against her father and brothers. However, the police refused to entertain her complaint, and she was forced to turn to a magisterial court. The magistrate directed the Vatva police to submit a status report on the issue.

BANGALORE: In an attempt to turn the tide of gender equality in favour of men,
various pro-men organisations have asked the Centre to form a National
Commission for Men.
In a joint press conference of the Save Indian Family Foundation (SIFF),
Children's Rights Initiative for Shared Parenting (CRISP) and All India
Mother-in-law Protection Forum (AIMPF) on Friday, members vouched for a
commission for men to address their issues.
CRISP president Kumar Jahagirdhar said even 63 years after independence, not a
single rupee was allotted for men's welfare in India.
"Every year, around 58,000 married men are committing suicides, which is double
the number of married women as per the National Crime Records Bureau," he added.
There are other issues such as unemployment, sexual harassment, domestic
violence, dowry harassment, heart attacks and various ailments, which need to be
studied in detail and addressed.
Other demands raised in the conference included scrapping section 498A (cruelty
by husband and relatives) of the Indian Penal Code, scrapping the current form
of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act and to rewrite it by
incorporating representation from husbands and their parents.
Vivek of SIFF said they would initiate a `Family breaking awareness month'
campaign from May 15. The campaign will create awareness about breaking of
families due to laws and biases against husbands and fathers.

CRISP president Kumar Jahagirdhar said even 63 years after independence, not a
single rupee was allotted for men's welfare in India.
"Every year, around 58,000 married men are committing suicides, which is double
the number of married women as per the National Crime Records Bureau," he added.
There are other issues such as unemployment, sexual harassment, domestic
violence, dowry harassment, heart attacks and various ailments, which need to be
studied in detail and addressed.
Other demands raised in the conference included scrapping section 498A (cruelty
by husband and relatives) of the Indian Penal Code, scrapping the current form
of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act and to rewrite it by
incorporating representation from husbands and their parents.
Vivek of SIFF said they would initiate a `Family breaking awareness month'
campaign from May 15. The campaign will create awareness about breaking of
families due to laws and biases against husbands and fathers.

NEW DELHI: A 24-year-old woman along with her lover has been arrested by west district police for allegedly attempting to murder her husband. The accused have been identified as Reena (24) and Satish Kumar Chauhan (21).
The police said Reena and her husband, Om Prakash, were intercepted by two bikers in Hari Nagar on May 7. The bikers tried to snatch Reena's gold chain. When Om Prakash intervened, he was stabbed several times. When the police investigated the incident, it found clues indicating that the snatching incident could have been stagemanaged.
"The number of stab injuries sustained by the victim indicated robbery alone might not be the motive for this crime. We also noticed contradictions in the statements given by Reena. Though Om Prakash had sustained grievous injuries, his wife did not have any injury or abrasion on her neck. This raised some questions," said DCP (west) Sharad Agarwal.
The police spoke to family members and one of them revealed that Om Prakash was not on good terms with his wife.
"We found during the investigation that Reena used to talk to Chauhan frequently on phone," added DCP Agarwal.
Chauhan was living in the neighbourhood of Om Prakash for the past three years. Om Prakash's nephew, Deepak, introduced Chauhan to his uncle and he started visiting his house frequently. "He developed an intimacy with Reena and the two decided to live together. They came so close to each other that they went a temple in November 2009 and accepted each other as a husband and wife in an unconventional ceremony," said a police officer.
Om Prakash got suspicious of his wife as she used to talk a lot on her mobile phone. When he objections, she complained about it to Satish. "They hatched a conspiracy to eliminate Om Prakash," added the officer. The police said they have seized the knife with which Om Prakash was stabbed. The couple were married for past two and half years and had two children.
