King Shantanu had it. Syed Makdoom had it. Umesh Krishnan had it. And before you ask me, about these men, I will tell you their stories in brief.

Shantanu:

King Shantanu is a epical character from the 5000 year old epic, the Mahabharata. And the available edited version probably does not contain the Domestic Violence that Shantanu, the King suffered at the hands of his wife. He fell in love with Ganga, who was the human body form of the Ganges River in India and proposed to marry her. She married on a condition that he will never ever question her, come what may. The day he questions, the marriage breaks. He agrees. They get married and she gets pregnant with their first child. But as soon as the child is born, Ganga throws them into the river and kills the newborn. Shantanu sees his child, his blood, his heir die before him and his helpless due to his promise since he wanted to save his marriage. And it was not only this child, one after another, 7 of the newborns one after another were killed and Shantanu, the King was a mute spectator, just to save the Marriage. Just to save the marriage he underwent the torture of sleeping 6 times with the murderer of his children before whom he was a powerless puppet, bound a promise, just to save the marriage. One can never imagine the mental torture he went through. And the day he could no longer take the ‘Honor Killings' of his innocent new born sons, he questioned her after the seventh murder. She left him as the promise was broken and ultimately the marriage was broken, the same marriage at the altar of which the great King laid the sacrifice of seven of his sons, his blood, his heirs. Looks like a height of mental torture? Read on further.

Syed Makdoom:

Syed Makdoom is a real character who laid down his own life at the altar of family in his love for his son. He was associated with a white collar job in the ministry of Social Welfare in Canada, a rare feat for any person not born in Canada and had served there for 11 years. Additionally he was a very intelligent person and a professionally trained counselor. However, his second marriage proved fatal for him.

Muskan Sehr, the woman who married him by providing false information about her past marriages and the debacles within, lodged a false dowry case on Makdoom as he failed to satisfy her extortionary demands and later started blackmailing him. She did not allow him to meet his son, Rehan, who was the world for Makdoom. She and her parents left no stone unturned in torturing cornering him to such an extent that he ultimately committed suicide 9 days ago and left his pain in a parting video.

Umesh Krishnan:

Umesh Krishnan was a BPO employee. He loved his wife very much. But she loved her college mate and continued her affair with him after marriage even and used to talk to her paramour for late nights over phone. Umesh, on the other hand, wanted to settle down. But finally agrees to marry Honey as per his parents' wish. However, Honey had plans to cheat him and finally murdered Umesh to run away with her paramour.

And so in the all the three stories we see a clear development of wives in torturing their husbands. First killing the sons to kill the husband the mentally, second killing the husband mentally by denying access to son and third one snubbed off his life to live a life with her lover.

The women empowerment started by the Government and pampered and encouraged by the society has proved very fatal for husbands who are denied protection in marriages as the conservative society is unable to punish the woman.

It has reached from Mental Torture to Murder, what waits to be seen is, where it leads to further.

Malhotra  - Women are misunderstood     |164.100.1.xxx |15-04-2009 11:57:39 If the ancient story of Shantanu is true in your view, then now is it the right now given to Men to harass the women for not bringing enough dowry or kill them as is being done nowadays. There should be strict guidelines in the Laws that before  filing Divorce, the women should be given written notice that his husband would file divorce. In many cases, the men want to save themselves from giving their legally wedded wife her legal rights. They only want to enjoy as they like and if their demands are not fulfilled, they file the divorce case on false & frivilous grounds and then compel her to give divorce without giving her any alimony or maintainence as per laws.  Instead keep her torture and harrass, without arguing in the matter in the Court by 'Not bringing Counsel' or keeping the Court saying that they are trying to settle the case mutually. Thus their main intentions are to torture women to such an extent that she may sign the Divorce without demanding her legal rights etc. Now they are using this SIIF forum to harrass. I I humbly request this forum that they want to Save Indian families in true sense, before, helping these guys, they should try to hear the both parties separately and give chance to settle the matter as per Laws of Hindu Marriage Act or Muslim Marriage Act etc. This will create their Best Image in the eyes of general people of India as well as in Law makers Reply | Quote 0   1

Mithun  - Poor sleeper...     |124.125.209.xxx |16-04-2009 00:12:14 Either this Malhotra man is living in the 16th century, or is one of the rare species of wife beaters in the today's society. Only sick people like him, who themselves beat their wives for dowry, can think that all the men around him also beat their wives for dowry. Such mentally ill people could never realize that a majority of men out in the world outside his bedroom, neither ever ask for any dowry, nor even put their hands on their wives, except to love her with tenderness. Its in fact the rights given to those wives to torture the loving men, fathers, husbands to such an extent as to drive them to the end of their lives. And the old men like like this Malhotra still keep beating their wives, thinking that all the men are like him, so he must be natural! Reply | Quote 1   0

You are responsible   |122.167.102.xxx |16-04-2009 00:09:14 Mr Malhotra, its people like you, who are responsible for the despicable situation men are in. Depsite they facing so many problems and that too because of the woman pamperment going around the world, that men commit suicides at double the rate of women and yet no one talks of them and then there are sex starved nymphomaniacs like you who say,"Women are misunderstood" I think you have filed a false case of dowry harassment for either your daughter or sister because of which you are saying this.

Virag  - You are at wrong place     |192.189.83.xxx |13-09-2010 13:20:25 Insult is nothing but self-inflicted humiliation being blamed on someone else. So, it will be good to do some self-introspection before lashing out. Reply | Quote 0   0
