It was an arranged marriage, she said. “Sanjay threw my daughter out of house on October 23. He forcibly took 11-month-old son with him.” Full report here

Abuse in Indian society was always on men. It is a hypocrisy that women and politicians want to grab power in punishing innocent men. Men who were abused became saints and sages. If any of you disagree I recommend to install few cameras inside Indian houses. India has the highest anti-male discrimination laws and social culture.
If you got that from reading this, then the social problem we are dealing with is worse than we thought! Oh dear!
