Section 2(a) of the impugned Act

Impugned Provision / other anomaly

Breach of Section / Article
Section 2(a) of the impugned Act

Public Policy of India




Section 2(a) "aggrieved person"

means any woman who is, or has been, in a domestic relationship with the respondent and who alleges to have been subjected to any act of domestic violence by the respondent.

The Argument

1.      The impugned Act is against the public Policy of India, for, the impugned Act does not provide for any limitation for instituting the case under the impugned Act.

2.      Ordinarily, every civil action is subjected to law of limitations. The laws of limitation are founded on sound policy that a person cannot be subjected to litigation at the whims and fancies of the other party.

3.      The doctrine of limitation is based on broad consideration, in the words of Abbott, CJ, in the case of Battley versus Faulkner, “the Statutes of limitation was intended for relief and quiet of the defendant and to prevent persons from being harassed at a distant point of time, after the committing of the injury complained of.” Also when the evidence are lost by defendant with the passage of time, at the benefit of the Plaintiff. The idea is that every legal remedy must be kept alive for legislatively fixed period of time.

4.      The aggrieved person includes a woman who in the past has been in a domestic relationship with the Respondent. Therefore, a Woman is entitled to file a case of “domestic violence” against her ex-husband and /or against his ex-relatives, notwithstanding they may have divorced.

The Recall Jurisdiction of the Courts

What is Recall of Orders of the Court ? But first….what is expected from the Orders of the Court – a)       While giving due consideration to the submissions and evidences on record of the rival parties, to record a reasoned finding with respect to disputed question of fact or of law; b)       Employing cogent reasons about the conclusion reached in the order / judgment. c)       Passing of orders in accordance with law. d)      Principles of natural justice are reasonably observed in the judicial proceeding.

The constitution of Nine Judges Bench in the Mafatlal Industries Case, Reported in (1997) 5 SCC 536, running into more than 500 pages; the extremely contested Vodafone litigation; and the present Judgment of Bombay High Court running into 310 Pages, at least furnishes some justification to this statement of Rocket Science. There are umpteen Judgments, some of which are relied herein also (Para 147), that whilst dealing with challenge to Taxation laws, greater latitude is shown by Constitutional Courts, only for the reason that Taxation / Economic Legislation, by their very nature, are very complex. And hold on, the Regime of Property Tax based on Capital Value of the Property, was brought in force, on the recommendations of Tata Institute of “Social Sciences”. (Para 33 of the Judgment) Did these Social Scientist, nevertheless very respectable, would appreciate an Inch of what was discussed in 310 Pages of Judgment, even assuming t...
