  2. Adultery – An Unpopular Viewpoint The adultery law in India defines Adultery or an extramarital affair as a criminal offence

  3. WHAT ARE YOUR OPINIONS? Let’s give this unpopular viewpoint a direction and see what the nation wants. Recently extramarital affairs law has been decriminalized by the supreme court stating that, “Husband is not the master of the wife”. But was this really what this country needed?

  4. Primarily, the adultery law in IPC invested rights was only in the hands of the husband. WHY IS EXTRAMARITAL AFFAIR LAW DECRIMINALIZED? Decriminalizing the adultery laws in India was the only option? But instead of decriminalizing the whole section, there could have been a better solution. Maybe, giving equal rights to the married woman to complain against her partner who commits adultery, whether with a married or unmarried woman, would have been one of the solutions.

  5. Adultery Law Section 497 What could be the approach? Adultery is not a crime in the books of Indian penal code. It’s a crime of emotions, trust, love, loyalty. • The petitioners should throw light issue related to Section 497: • The petitioners look forward to making Section 497 a gender-neutral law. • woman cannot complain against her husband who has committed adultery with another woman.

  6. Why it is called the Anti-woman law? The adultery law in IPC treats a woman as an object. Setting man free to involve in a sexual relationship without the knowledge or consent of his wife. As per Section 497, the act not considered a crime if the husband of the woman has no issues with the incident. Hence it has been called an anti-women law.
