55:11Now PlayingOn The Urban Debate, with Tanvi Shukla we discuss about the judgement passed by the Kerala HC. The Kerala High Court ruled on Friday that marital rape is a viable reason for divorce, despite the fact that it is not a criminal infraction or crime in India. "A husband's licentious disposition disregarding the autonomy of the wife is marital rape," the Kerala High Court said. "Although such conduct cannot be penalised, it falls under the category of physical and mental cruelty."
Justices A Muhamed Mustaque and Kauser Edappagath of the Kerala High Court issued a judgement order recognising a woman's individual rights in a marriage. The order was issued on July 30 while the court was hearing a woman's petition for a divorce from her spouse based on harassment.
