💨 Abstract

TMC leader Derek O'Brien criticized the exception for marital rape in the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, stating it undermines women's constitutional rights, including personal liberty, equality, and privacy. He introduced a private member's bill to scrap the exception, which he considers a legacy of the British colonial legal system and a violation of women's dignity and equality.
