Question

what is the violence free relationship were husband and wife are equal with each other and they enjoy equal rights?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In India, marriage is considered as a pure institution that not only ties two individuals but two families. Despite this, the number of crimes against married women aka daughters-in-law have been surging incessantly. Be it dowry deaths or domestic violence, the numbers have been increasing at an alarming rate.

It is ironical that most women are unaware of their legal rights, and thus keep mum. In order to fight injustice, it is important to have through knowledge about the rights. The Constitution of India, under Article 14, backs women and their rights in the country. It ensures women equality and equal protection of the laws. Article 15(3) empowers the state to take affirmative action in favour of a daughter-in-law.

Here is a list of seven rights every married woman should be aware of:

Right to Reside in Marital Home

The Hindu Adoptions and Maintenance Act, 1956, entitles wives a basic right to reside in the matrimonial/marital household. The term matrimonial home refers to a household a woman shares with her husband. The house may be owned by the husband or his parents, a rented property or officially provided to him. Regardless, whether it is an ancestral one or a joint family house, a daughter-in-law is entitled to reside in it. Also, she has the right to live in her matrimonial residence even if her husband is not there or is dead.

Many cases have come to light where a husband leaves a rented accommodation when his relationship with the wife turns sour. However, this does not free the man from providing basic maintenance to his wife and children.

Answer 2

A violence free relationship where husband and wife are equal with each other and they enjoy equal rights is called an equal relationship.

• Equal relationships are those in which both the partners desires and interests are taken into account and are respected and met to a reasonable degree as opposed to just one partner's needs dominating the relationship.
• Equal relationship does not mean that individual needs are unimportant. They are important and should not be disregarded.
• But there should be fairness in the relationship which is about understanding and working toward the needs of the relationship, not just the needs of each person and they should enjoy equal rights.
