or courts in their lifetime are dragged into jail without investigation and then into
court cases that span several years
• Women Abuse – Many women in the husband’s family are abused by the
process
• Abuse of entire extended family – Many in the husband’s family lose their
jobs/earnings

infants results in trauma

husband’s family even if they are innocent but the female relatives of a husband
do not have similar

20. 498a and Society:

parents have now started to legally disown their sons before or immediately after
marriage. The terror of this law has resulted in the break up of numerous families.

they suffer after being charged in a false criminal case, many people, including aged
senior citizens, have been committing suicides
