Criticism of monogamous marriage law for Hindus.

Indian laws are strange. There is a lot of talk of equality here but in reality the law itself does not provide equal rights. One of the most troubling aspects in this regard is that if a Hindu man has the desire/ability to marry more than one woman and the respective women willingly consent to such marriage, Indian law denies this right to a Hindu man by banning bigamy. And at the same time gives permission to other religious people. Where is the equality? It is not known from what exact tradition such restriction has been imposed on Hindu men. That I don't know (but I aspire to know it) what tradition of Hindus was assumed behind this oppressive condition of monogamy for Hindu men, because polygamy is an important feature of Hindu tradition except in exceptional cases. One can give examples of one hundred polygamous marriages against one monogamous marriage. Then it is not known what basic tradition was taken into account when making this law. Monogamy law violates the basic human rights of Hindu men to marry more than once and of women who consent to such marriages. Monogamy law prevents many Hindu men and women from the natural joy of polygamous married life.

Now Hindu men who aspire to polygamous marriages have to resort to wrong ways for no reason as there is no provision in the law. For fear of law, they have to restrain their natural love. Otherwise, they have to resort to conversion for no reason. Nowadays, it is known that there is a law that if someone converts only for marriage, he will not be allowed. Hindu marriage Act must be changed and monogamy should be abolished.

Does caste change after marriage?

* A woman’s caste does not change after marriage. Caste is determined by birth. By default , the father’s caste is the child's caste. Marriage does not alter the caste of someone. So, OBC lady cannot become a SC just because she married a SC male. However, the children of them will belong to SC as the father is a SC. However, there are certain exception in case child of such wedlock ( father UR but mother Reserved) who is raised in reserved community and separated or absence of father presence, he may be treated reserved as per mother caste. There are many exceptions : 1. When orphan child is adopted by mother of reserve caste. 2. When generation of Indian father of reserve caste live outside of India ( with no caste system) and when grand children return to India which caste they will be.

What is the difference between 'sin' and 'offence' ?

Sin is an immoral, bad, unethical and unlawful thing in the eyes of society. Offence is an unlawful and illegal act or omission which is punishable by the law. Adultery, prostitution, sex before marriage, eating animals these some of things are considered as sin in the Indian society. But sin is not punishable by the law. The man who commits sin is responsible to the god. Murder, rape, bigamy, theft, violation of traffic rules these are the some offences. These offences are punishable by law with capital punishment, imprisonment or by fine. Sin is not a crime. The role of police and judge starts when sin becomes an offence. When it's a sin, it can not be questioned. Police and judge can not take cognizance of sin. A person responsible for sin is answerable before the Supreme Lord of the universe on the day of judgement.
