n numerous occasions during hearing of matrimonial disputes, Justice Arijit Pasayat, a senior judge of the Supreme Court, had commented in lighter vein — "Hindu Marriage Act (HMA) has broken more homes than it has united." One such recent observation hit the headlines.
Divorce is not a new phenomenon but is as old as civilisation itself. Prior to codification of the Hindu personal law, there were ways and means to terminate a marriage, but it was so heavily loaded in favour of men that women's opinion or grievances were seldom taken into account.
With the Constitution guaranteeing right to equality, codification of Hindu personal law — part of which is HMA — made men and women equal partners in a marriage.
Equal rights of women in marriage was one of the main considerations for a Bench comprising Justices Pasayat and S H Kapadia to direct all state governments on August 14, 2006, to compulsorily register marriages.
The aim was to make accountable unscrupulous husbands, who after deserting their wives for other women often denied their marriages taking advantage of the absence of documentary proof of their marriage to frustrate court orders directing them to pay alimony to their wives.

All the major historical world wars were caused due to women. Even in households, women are so demanding and never satisfied, even sexually. I agree that women have achieved a lot, but thats bec men let them. If they were to fight face to face, it...

I don't think there should be any kind of reservation any where for that matter, the selection should be purely on the basis of merit and what one can do if given an opportunity and not just because of reservation, and in the name of reservation...

Gilani Takes on Pakistan Army Trouble is brewing again in Pakistan. The latest unrest began when Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani sacked his defense secretary , who is a close ally of the powerful army chief, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani. The move represents another low point in relations between the civilian government and the military establishment in Pakistan, and prompted an angry statement from the army, which denounced the prime minister’s actions: “There can be no allegation more serious than what the honourable prime minister has levelled,” the statement said. What did Gilani say that was so serious? He accused the Pakistan Army and the Inter-Services Intelligence of being “a state within a state.” Ominously, Kayani convened an “emergency” meeting of the country’s military top brass on Thursday to deliberate the latest development, and the Pakistani media has been abuzz with talk of an imminent military takeover that would end the rule of President Zardari’s coalition...

Which way is the dancer spinning… clockwise or counter-clockwise? Most people will see her turning counter-clockwise, which apparently means you’re more left brained (logical). I see her spinning that way, and it’s at first almost impossible to imagine her going clockwise. But it happens, usually by focusing or when something unexpectedly alters your perception. Here’s the typical run down on left versus right brain: LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling “big picture” oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy religion can “get it” (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking Many people associate the...

From 15th June 2011 Every Advocate shall be entitled as of right to practice before any court in India including Supreme Court. Section 30 of the Act says: “Subject to the provisions of this Act, every advocate shall be entitled as of right to practise throughout the territories to which this Act extends; in all courts including the Supreme Court; before any tribunal or person legally authorised to take evidence; and before any other authority or person before whom such advocate is by or under any law for the time being in force entitled to practise. Earlier, the Supreme Court in Aeltemesh Rein vs. Union of India and others AIR 1988 SC 1768 had issued a writ of mandamus to the Central Government to consider, within six months, whether Section 30 of the Advocates Act, 1961 should be brought into force or not. The Court, however, held that it was the discretion of the Central Government to bring this section in force by issuing a notification in this behalf. In spite of the...
