Recently I have to visit one of the DC rank officer's office in Delhi for some domestic violence complain.The remarkable thing I come to know that the gentelman doesn't know that this law can be used against father & brother for their misbehaviour,verbal abuse,for the right of maintenance,right to reside at home,for letting her daughter to pursue higher study,job,marriage.This is not the case of this high rank officer even many women politician feel that this law will remain underused as girls /women consider the abusive situation as their bad luck or something like this.Our society still not consider that father or brother can be subject of complain. They always feel that it is the in-laws or husband who should be at the receiving end.
But recent killing in delhi of a buinessman in Kalkaji by his brother in-law revealed that the killers are his wife'husband who were angery over the huge property being passed on by the father to the daughter. The mother-in-law of the deceased person also accused her sons that they have killed her son-in-law.Our society is ok with the notion that you can borrow money for the dowry of the daughter but you can't empower her by passing few revenue generating assets to her.If a son go out of station for doing job his share or claim in the ancestral property will remain intact but if a girl leave her paternal house her claim in the property will go for a toss.
Even girls also feel that it is better not to claim the property right for the peace of family.Can I question : why family peace is required at the cost of daughter's right?
