Recently, Justice J.B. Pardiwala of the Gujarat High Court made a brave statement against this particular law, and we would like to highlight his courage. As reported by The Huffington Post, “He advocated for the criminalization of marital rape, saying that outlawing nonconsensual sex in a marriage is the “first necessary step in teaching societies that dehumanized treatment of women will not be tolerated.” He added, “Marital rape is not a husband’s privilege, but rather a violent act and an injustice that must be criminalized.”” Thank you, Justice, for using your platform to help protect the women of India in the future. Let’s keep sharing, signing, and putting the pressure on India’s government to make marital rape illegal!
