Renuka Chowdhury on DV Act

TOI: Are there any laws for men who are beaten and tortured by women?
A) Well, the law should be equally applicable. But we didn't bring this law for some women. We brought it as a framework for civil society. And if men are being beaten up and tortured, then they must learn to speak up. I have overwhelming evidence of women who are raped, tortured, beaten up day and night, whose property is taken away, who've been sent to mental asylums or forced to commit sati. The husbands drink and come home and beat them up. Those are reported public demonstrations of what is happening with women. I haven't seen that with men. Yes, if there is a need, law should be equal for both genders. But I can't work on a hypothesis. I need people to come forward and prove it.
