Marriage System of India
#3
Quote:... a new marital system ought to be developed which not only helps people but ends all kinds of problems such as child marriage, dowry system, polygamous marriages, family violence, child abuse, and control of family size.

Even the recent controversy of Khaps which object to marriage within a village and or within a goter may end.

What exactly is child marriage by your definition because 16 definitely is not a child and in many US states you can get married at 16 with parental consent while India has the ridiculous age 21 for men and 18 for women.



Dowry system, whats your problem if money is exchanged for whatever reason voluntarily between individuals. If anyone is subjected to violence or threats there are laws against that aren't there and if I remember correctly both giving and taking dowry is a "crime" under current law but I remember a few years back the media was all gung ho on some woman in Delhi who reported her fiance regarding dowry and cancelled the marriage but no action was taken against her own family for agreeing to give the dowry in the first place. Now privately you may have your opinion on whether taking money from your in laws during marriage is good or bad but why do you want to impose your views through the law on others?



polygamous marriages are "evil" according to whom, the wasps?



For most of our history no one cared about this issue and it was left up to the people concerned in both cases polygyny (1 man more than 1 wife), polyandry (1 wife more than 1 husband, practiced in tibet and some himachal communities due to land shortage).



If 2 men can get "married" because they are adults then why can't a man with their consent marry more than 1 woman?



And don't give me that bull about all polygynous marriages being forced, you and I both know that's bull and that there are enough women around willing to share their husband if he has enough power/money.



Family violence, again there are laws against violence why is family violence so special. Oh I know its just an excuse for the gov't to help press false DV charges so that lawyers can make money and breakup families.



Child abuse, there are already laws against that genius.



Control of family size again is a private issue, why don't you instead ask the gov't to stop pouring money into shitty socialist schemes that keeps India in poverty instead of blaming some mythical "overpopulation". Did you know for example that South Korea has 491 people per sq km as against India's 362. Yet South Korea is a first world country and no one cries about any mythical "overpopulation" there. You want examples of socialist garbage in India, BSNL is a perfect example, wtf is the gov't doing providing internet connections instead of letting the market do its job like it does in many other countries.



Why not a license to shit and piss then where the gov't babu can lecture you about personal hygiene before you are allowed to?



Fuck marriage licenses, gov't has no business in marriage except for the courts to strictly enforce any prenups, but we know that will never be the case because that way men won't get assraped in family courts if prenups were enforced and lawyers won't be raking in money.
Banda Bahadur paid back the Muslims in their own coin, if only other Hindu rulers were like him...
