💨 Abstract
The article discusses the marital rape exception in Indian law, which prevents a wife from seeking legal redress if raped by her husband. Despite public outrage over the 2012 Delhi gang rape, the exception remains in the statute books, with one judge upholding it as being in the public interest due to the marital sphere's privacy.
