The Uttarakhand High Court reprimanded a runaway couple who married against family wishes but directed police protection. Justice Rakesh Thapliyal heard the case involving an 18-year-old woman and 21-year-old man facing threats from her relatives.
The Delhi High Court criticized the notion that older women should foresee marriage issues with younger partners, calling it patriarchal and misogynistic. The judge upheld a rape accusation against a man who misled a woman about marriage, asserting that each individual must be accountable for their commitments, regardless of gender stereotypes.
