A question to the Distinguished lawyers of India #498A, #306

Standard

πŸ˜‘ A lawyer Freind seems to be in trouble. His daughter in law committed suicide 3 months ago. No one blamed them because, the girl had tried suicide twice even before marriage. Relatives reconciled and were peaceful. Then suddenly an FIR is lodged after 3 months of suicide under 498A, 306, against entire family of lawyer. The whole family is now entangled in a web of law and criminal trial…

The question to Hon’ble Judges and distinguished lawyers of India, are :

1) Is there any safety legal measures which this lawyer could have done before getting his son married to the deceased girl?

2) Does law recognise any kind of written and registered Memorandum of Understanding, binding on parties that before registering any FIR of 306 or 498A, one party should give a 30 days notice to other side to reply to allegations?

3) Would such a law help families from “sudden shock of FIR and blow from the sky after 3 months of death a daughter in law?

4) Will such a provision give a chance to relatives of both sides to sit together before process of law begins?

5)An FIR means “Very First Information of an incident to police authorising it to start investigation”.. How a 3 month old information can be treated at par with such FIR when information is lodged after getting it drafted by some lawyer to rope in as accused maximum family members of other side?

Gift of Providence.

Providence fulfills some of our wishes in a miraculous way..In 1982, standing before a cupboard in Library of District Court Junagadh, while shuffling through pages of a SCR report, while glancing at a judgement of Justice P.N.Bhagwati, a sudden wish flashed in my mind, “How nice it would be to practise in Supreme Court? Here, whatever labour I may do, whole India can benefit !”

The wish came in flash and went away in seconds… I forgot about it and resumed doing work which had been alloted to me by Providence.

In 1990, I found myself practising in Supreme Court. Circumstances affecting me changed in dramatic way. Even if I was making no efforts to move to Supreme Court, the circumstances began to force me and propell me towards Supreme Court. Against my will, I saw myself being forced to move to Supreme Court by some design of Providence..

As I look back after 36 years, I can still see myself standing before a cupboard in Library of District Court. I still see the volume of SCR in which I was glancing. I still see that flash of a wish to practise in Supreme Court !

I did not have any special skills or family background of lawyers. I had just a little knowledge of English language. And that was all. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ The God has been kind to me.
