ABSTRACT

The noble goal of strengthening women and protecting them from various forms of violence, injustice and discrimination led to laws that have expired, especially among women in India. However, over time, There have been worries expressed over the possible abuse of these regulations. To illuminate the complex social realities related to the abuse of Indian women’s policy, this abstract examines the underlying causes, effects and potential solutions. There are many aspects of the abuse of laws that women aim to abuse, and there is no simple solution. While it is important to recognize the frequency of actual cases of gender-specific violence and discrimination, these laws have sometimes been abused for personal interests, retaliation, or resolution of family disputes. Sociocultural elements, the dynamics of power and ignorance, and this issue is exacerbated by sensitivity to gender concerns. Abuse of laws related to women has far more dependent implications. The man and his family had alleged financial difficulties, social humiliation, legal retaliation and false claims. Furthermore, the legality and reliability of these laws were raised questionable, which led to a decline in public confidence in the legal system. Such abuse can mismatch gender-specific prejudices and hinder progress in gender equality in society.
