IPC 498a, 406 and other related law's Assumption : All men, mothers, sisters are all bad and liars and all pretty female spouse[age 20-40] are good and only they need protection.
Official UN and Indian statistics say that Men between the age of 20 and 40 suicide twice more than women, yet there are feminist law like IPC Section 498a that makes men suicide more than women.
[Rates for men are three times higher than those for women]
[ BBC AND UN STATISTICS SAY SOWRY DEATH IS 3 TIMES DOWRY DEATH ]

First time in the world a so called democratic country discriminates its people based on youth, sex and beauty.... Women over 40 dont be fooled, your nearest police and womens organization takes your support to jail you . IPC 498a is only for just married girls against all other girls/women in the family....
Look in www.shaadi.com how many girl's parents want to sell their daughter to guys working abroad rather than promoting dating.
