Udupi, Mar 27: A local court in the coastal district has ordered the Passport Office to restrain a litigant, Jagadish alias Jagannath of Nada village of Kundapur taluk, preventing him from fleeing abroad as he had “cheated his lawfully wedded wife by marrying another woman”.

Amitha, the aggrieved woman had approached the Udupi Superintendent of Police seeking police protection for herself and her parents, living in Chempi village, from her husband Jagadish, son of Muttaiah Acharya.

Ravindranath Shanbhag, president of Human Rights Protection Foundation (HRPF) told media persons that Jagadish married an unsuspecting Amitha (22) from Chempi in 2012 and settled down in his ancestral home in Nada. Although Jagadish neglected her from the first day of their marriage, Amitha quietly abided by her duties as a wife.

He was irritable and lost temper with her for minor reasons. She bore all the tantrums and insults and led a lonely life. Jagadish was working as a technician in a private company in Muscat.

However, in 2014, Amitha figured out the real reason for her husband’s unruly behaviour. Prior to his marriage with Amitha, Jagadish had been living and having a relationship with another woman of Ganiga community. When his parents Kamala and Muttaiah Acharya came to know about it, they insisted on having a daughter-in-law from their own Vishwakarma community.

With the full knowledge of their son having a relationship with another woman, they successfully clinched an alliance with Prabhakar Acharya’s daughter Amitha.

In 2014, after this fraud committed by Jagadish came to the light, both the families got together and discussed the matter, and finally came to the conclusion that Jagadish must pay Amitha a compensation of Rs 25 lakh and dissolve their marriage through a decree in court.

As per the agreement, Jagadish paid an advance of Rs 10 lakh with the assurance that he would pay the rest after the dissolution of the marriage. He also signed the papers for dissolving the marriage through mutual consent. After the dissolution case was filed before the Senior Civil Judge at Kundapur, he stopped appearing for court hearing.

By this, he thought that he could escape from paying the remaining compensation of Rs 15 lakh. He thought that he could take advantage by delaying the matter in court, Dr Shanbhag said.

Amitha and her family then approached HRPF for guidance, which brought the matter to the notice of the district administration. Amitha expressed apprehension of Jagadish fleeing the country with his second wife without dissolving their marriage.

As per the directions of the Deputy Commissioner, Priyanka Mary Francis, the Women and Child Welfare Officer urged the court to restrain Jagadish from leaving the country. The Kundapur Civil and JMFC court issued orders on March 15, 2018, restraining from leaving the country and also passed an interim order that Amitha be paid Rs 2,000 per month as maintenance pending litigation, Dr Shanbhag said.

BJP Government, Supreme court etc. always discusses about marital problems of muslims only as if there is problems in muslim community only. The social problems in other communities more than muslims but not discussed widely. Please note that divorce rate and polygamy is more in other communities than muslims (go and check facts and figures). Those who see the problems in muslim personal laws let them study its law thoroughly. Thanks

Bengaluru, Jan 12: Protesters plan to intensify their anti-Citizenship (Amendment) Act movement from sit-down satyagrahas and rallies to street and door-to-door campaigns in different parts of the city.

The street campaigns began on January 1 with 20-30 volunteers of Hum Bharat Ke Log, reaching out to people in Koramangala and Whitefield and explaining the CAA, National Population Register (NPR), National Register of Citizens (NRC) and related issues. They have organised four campaigns.

According to Zia Nomani, member of Hum Bharat Ke Log, the campaign will intensify soon. “Over 200-400 volunteers will organise nukkad sabhas and other activities around JP Nagar and Banashankari,” Nomani said.

She added that though protests began as a medium for people to vent their concerns, more needs to be done.

“We have realised that many people have begun working on their personal documents and want to help them understand what CAA is all about,” Nomani said.

Volunteers will talk to people at street junctions, discuss issues and run signature campaigns. They say: “Our movement is focussed on reaching out to people. Pro-CAA workers too started a door-to-door campaign last week.”

Avani Chokshi, an advocate who participated in a campaign, said though people had a cursory idea about these issues, they didn’t know the details. “It through such campaigns that we can reach more people. It’s important to talk to people who haven’t made up their mind about the issues or are even pro-CAA,” said Avani, adding, “It hard to combat hatred in a short span of time. The movement needs to be sustained.”

Activist Geeta Menon, who has been at the forefront of the street campaign, says they were heckled at some places.
