Silent Barriers: The Invisible Chains of Gender Bias

Author(s) Sagarika Nair, Roshni A, S K Sahana
Country India
Abstract This article focuses on how Gender discrimination exists in certain sections of the Indian legal system and how it is to be combated in the near future. When most people hear the term “Gender Discrimination” they often tend to associate with the inequalities faced by women without paying heed to the possibility that even women have the potential to be adversary and not just men. Considerable sections of Chapter V of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 unintentionally favour or go against particular gender. Through this article we try to address and depict the aftermath of limiting the privileges or the punishment to a certain gender. The article does not intend to pinpoint the flaws in the legal system rather focuses on how certain offences have been mentioned to be stereotypically committed only by a man. The article revolves around breaking the glass ceiling and proves that both genders are equally capable of committing certain offenses against women. The readers get the opportunity to unmask the fact that the perpetrator cannot be limited to “Men” alone.
Keywords Gender Discrimination, Inclusivity of law
