INTRODUCTION
The preamble of the Indian Constitution resolves to constitute India into a secular,
Democratic Republic. This means, there is no state religion and the state shall not
discriminate on the same. Though, in criminal matters there is no discrimination but when
we talk about personal matters there lies no similarity and what lies is an ocean of
dissimilarities.
This case didnt involve any question of constitutional importance but, that is not to say that
it does not involve any question of importance. Some questions which arise under the
ordinary civil and criminal law are of a far-reaching significance to large segments of society
which have been traditionally subjected to unjust treatment. Women are one such segment.
