Need of Men’s rights arise when Men have no rights of anything compared to women, and rampat misuse of “pro-women” laws, supported by the biased Indian legal system. specially, the laws such as Section 498A, PWDVA(Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005), 307, 312, 354, 375, 376, 377 of the Indian Penal Code, etc., have often been misused to extort men. According to Men’s rights activists, most cases filed under these sections are false, filed false cases just to harass men, most cases endup in financial settlement or acquittals. MRA’s argued that these laws were biased against men and that they were being used to unfairly target, harass and punish innocent men.
