Court asks govt to establish marriage counseling centres
11/16/2020 10:38:56 PM
Early Times Report
JAMMU, Nov 16: While rejecting the anticipatory bail of an accused mother-in-law in dowry death case, the Additional Sessions Judge Jammu Tahir Khurshid Raina emphasize on the government to establish marriage counseling centre in every district for ensuring smooth and lovable matrimonial relations in the families. The court said what is expected from parents in law, that even if dowry demands are raised by their son, they should reprimand him in the very first instance and give protection to the daughter in law so that family as a whole is saved from mess and unpleasant happenings. If not, it finally brings bad name for the family and disturbs its peace for all times to come.
In the instant case if the parents in law would have played a very positive role in the first instance, probably they would have been saved from this very awkward situation which they are facing right now at the moment. The dowry death crime is on rise and inspite of all efforts there is no decline in its rising graph. Keeping in view the gravity of this burgeoning crime in the society, through the medium of this order I convey my concern to the govt to establish marriage counseling centers in every district, where especially before the celebration of marriage, the couples along with their family members be called to have parleys with the experts of the field who can guide them how to behave to each other in the new relationship, based on social , moral, ethical and religious sanctions.
It must be remembered that greater good of the society is the star objective of the welfare state . Therefore, what is suggested by the court to the govt is in furtherance of that lofty objective to ensure marriage institution and matrimonial homes to grow smoothly and lovably. Now coming to the instant case \, the gravity of the offence is on the face of the record as a young lady of aged 32 years , who was a mother of a child of 4 years age has died by committing suicide who, as alleged has been a constant victim of physical and mental torture on account of demand of dowry by mother-in-law (applicant here in), husband and brother-in-law and she finally ended her life by committing suicide.
Court and its application depends upon facts and circumstances of each case . In the case in hand which is quite serious in its gravity and complicity of accused-applicant is quite explicit, does not entitle her for grant of anticipatory bail.
Fact remains that anticipatory bail is meant only for those bonafide persons who are unnecessarily roped in an offence on account of some vengeance etc and not for those who are explicitly involved in serious offences like dowry death and seek anticipatory bail. In view of it , what stand discussed in the foregoing paras, this application is accordingly rejected. —JNF
