💨 Abstract

The Centre has requested the Supreme Court not to hear this week pleas challenging the legal immunity for a husband in cases of rape if he forces his adult wife to have sex. The pleas, which are already on the court's docket for hearing, have been asked to be listed next week. The court is already occupied with other cases, including one on felling trees in Delhi's ridge area. Senior lawyers have requested an urgent hearing of the matter.
