Author(s) Nitin Kumar Gupta, Dr. Anjali Dixit

Abstract Marital rape is an evil practice in India. Domestic violence is not less or part of violence. Usually, victims of domestic violence are married women. The biggest threat to gender justice in India. Domestic violence has been around for centuries, but in the past women were not considered independent legal entities that could speak out or feel that what happened to them was wrong. Since then, domestic violence is not considered rape by Indian society. This is rarely resisted in society for various reasons. Domestic violence refers to violence perpetrated by the victim's partner. In the past, girls always thought that what their husband did was right, so they didn't think it was wrong or unfair. Indian lawmakers have been silent on the issue so far. The legislature of India has been given the most difficult task of enacting laws under the constitution of India for the safety, security and development of the country. But the legislature is not very interested in eradicating the crime of domestic violence from the community. So, in order to know more about marriage, let's learn its meaning and historical background and how the laws of different countries treat the human rights of marriage.
