Forced Impregnation Of A Married Woman Can Be Considered Marital Rape: SC

Arpita SarkarSeptember 29, 20220

Forced impregnation of a married woman for the purpose of abortion can be considered "marital rape", the Supreme Court ruled on Thursday, as it delivered a landmark ruling on women's reproductive rights and bodily autonomy. A bench headed by Justice Dhananjaya Y Chandrachud held that the term "rape" under the Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act would include pregnancy due to coercive sex by husbands. The bench said, "Married women may also form part of the class of rape survivors. Rape means sexual intercourse without consent, and intimate partner violence is a reality. In this case, also woman may get forcefully pregnant. Any pregnancy alleged to be caused by force by a pregnant woman is rape."

Sayani ChakrabortySeptember 29, 20220

On September 22, the CIA and DEA started simultaneous operations in 11 states. NIA and ED raided PFI offices and affiliates (PFI). Muslims accuse PFI of sponsoring terrorism and extremism. A large-scale, well-planned attack in many states sent shockwaves across the country. This operation captured 106 PFI officials and seized damning documents, guns, and explosives. PFI opposed the surgery to avoid controversy. Investigation agencies exposed the public to the central government's true face as reports circulated that they were detaining Opposition leaders to crush them. The group started volunteering in 2006. The 1992 Babri Mosque incident revealed the group's true character.

President Who Is Not Attached To Gandhi Family Likely To Form Revived Congress

Sayani ChakrabortySeptember 29, 20220

The Congress party will soon be shattering a consensus that has been held for the past 24 years. Everyone in the Congress Party knows that only Gandhi can head the party. In the coming days, the Indian National Congress will elect its first non-Gandhi president since 1998. In order to keep the party together, only Gandhi can serve as president, and the chaotic Rao-Kesari years are used as evidence. Despite the Congress party's overwhelming electoral loss since 2014, there has been no credible call inside the party for a leader other than Gandhi to assume the presidency. The true reason everyone is looking for a Gandhi is that the party's middle ranks are so bitterly split that no one wants to see someone from that group promoted to the party leader. As such, the Gandhis can serve...

Gunjan ChaudharySeptember 28, 20220

A country's capital is a reflection of the progress of that country. The capital is considered to be the latest in every field. Despite this, even the capital Delhi has not been able to save itself from the social evils like 'child marriage'.

Congress Needs To Justify Where Rahul’s Position In Presidency Lies

Sayani ChakrabortySeptember 26, 20220

Since the beginning of the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rahul Gandhi has been giving evasive responses to questions about whether or not he would run for president of the Congress when he makes appearances in the media. These have ranged from providing political opponents who are pragmatic with lofty philosophical advise to outright denying that he has any "confusion" about his intentions. Nevertheless, state units are drafting resolutions anticipating that he may be pulled into the presidency. This adds to the confusion that is being caused by Rahul's statements. The only information that the general public has access to about Rahul's choice not to run for office is a soundbite from another neta or information that is based on a source. This would be a terrible political move for Congress...

Sachin Pilot’s Rash 2020 Uprising Jeopardised His Chances Of Serving In Congress?

Sayani ChakrabortySeptember 26, 20220

The fact that a majority of party MLAs have voted against Sachin Pilot's candidacy to succeed Ashok Gehlot as chief minister in 2020 has brought up bitter memories of Sachin Pilot's previous attempt at leading a successful rebellion. It does not appear, either then or now, that Pilot possesses the support of a sufficient number of MLAs to mount a credible challenge to Gehlot's leadership. Even the top leadership of the Congress, which had appeared to back him previously, is now in an embarrassing situation as a result of the resignation of the MLAs. Pilot has exhausted all of their available options. If his supporters remained loyal to him after his resignation, it would bring down the administration and achieve very little in the short term. The Congress is no longer in a position ...

SHIVANI UJJAINWALSeptember 26, 20220

Ajay Maken, a leader in the Congress and an observer for Rajasthan, described the "unofficial" meeting between state minister Shanti Dhariwal and the rebel MLAs from the Ashok Gehlot camp as an "undisciplined move" and claimed that the party has never permitted "conditional resolutions," in contrast to what the group is requesting.
