Marital Rape Laws in India

Does a woman or man lose their degree of sexual autonomy after marriage? Hon’ble Justice DY Chandarchud took a stand in the negative on the Right to say “no” (to sex) after marriage. It is generally believed that either of the spouses must ensure each other’s approval on sexual intercourse after marriage but in ancient India, marital rape was not even accepted as an issue. The primary reason behind this mentality was the patriarchal framework of Indian society and that women were considered a ‘property’ or a ‘chattel’ of their husbands. This does sound orthodox!

How to become an Advocate in India?

India has a humongous judicial system which consists of more than 20 lakh of lawyers. In India when a freshly graduated law student aspires to be an advocate he or she has to go through a tedious process with the Bar Council of India. The Bar Council of India (“BCI”) is a widely recognised statutory agency that oversees the country's legal system, as established under the Advocates Act of 1961 (“The Act”) with the goal of establishing professional standards of behaviour as well as overseeing the operations of all other State Bar Councils (“SBC”). BCI is a separate legal entity that reports to the Ministry of Law and Justice of the Indian government. Due to it being a corporate organisation with a seal and everlasting succession over both movable and immovable assets, it can sue anybody who infringes on it or be sued for its acts.
