"किसी भी कानून का दुरूपयोग एक बड़े जुर्म से कम नही है,
लेकिन महिला हिताशी कानून की समीक्षा करने के लिए सरकार के पास फुर्सत ही नही है।
यही हाल रहा तो परिवार के बिखरने कर आंकडा साल दर साल बढ़ता ही रहेगा।"

"Misuse on any law is no less than a big crime, but Indian Government does not have time to review the Women Empowerment laws. If this situation continues for long then the Statistics of Breaking of Indian families would go on increasing every year. "

B Saxena (TOI reader) on 497

Adulterous Women are Offenders too

Times have changed. People don't get very shocked or surprised when they find out that a spouse is involved in an extramarital affair. People have moved with the times but apparently, the National Commission for Women has not, According to Indian Penal Code 497, women cannot be tried of committing adultery. In other words, a woman committing adultery does not amount to a punishable offence while the husband can be punished for the same. Is this not inequality? The government proposed to amend the existing provisions of IPC 497, which are biased, but the NCW turned it down.

"Girija Vyas believes that a woman is always a victim not an offender. But the question is: An Adulterous Women is victim of what? "
