SC to hear plea seeking declaration of marital rape as offence on May 9

Mar 22, 2023

An NGO has moved the Supreme Court with a plea contending that the doctrine of separation of powers is a part of the basic structure of the Constitution and the power to create an offence solely vests with the legislature. A marriage can end without any sufficient evidence pertaining to a case of marital rape. If there is any evidence of forcible intercourse, then there cannot be any other primary evidence other than the testimony of the wife. This can easily destabilise the institution of marriage.
