Re: [rti4empowerment] Conducting Monthly seminars in Bangalore to Highlight the Misuse of IPC 498a

Dear Raghy Rao,

 You should have attached a copy of DG* IGP's circular on section 498A of The Indian Penal Code 1860 which reads as thus:

 

498A. Husband or relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty.

 

498A. Husband or relative of husband of a woman subjecting her to cruelty.--Whoever, being the husband or the relative of the husband of a woman, subjects such woman to cruelty shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Chapter XXA inserted by Act 46 of 1983, s. 2. 212 Explanation.-For the purposes of this section, "cruelty" means- (a) any wilful conduct which is of such a nature as is likely to drive the woman to commit suicide or to cause grave injury or danger to life, limb or health (whether mental or physical) of the woman; or (b) harassment of the woman where such harassment is with a view to coercing her or any person related to her to meet any unlawful demand for any property or valuable security or is on account of failure by her or any person related to her to meet such demand.]

 

Regards

WEDS
