There’s nothing like marital rape tweets ex-Governor Swaraj Kaushal, gets trolled

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Kaushal, husband of Union minister for external affairs, Sushma Swaraj, also claims making marital rape a criminal offence will lead to there being “more husbands in the jail, than in the house”

On a day when the Delhi High Court was hearing a plea on a bunch of petitions that seek criminalising the vile act of marital rape, former Mizoram governor and senior advocate Swaraj Kaushal triggered a row on micro-blogging website Twitter by asserting: “There is nothing like marital rape”.

Kaushal, husband of Union minister of external affairs Sushma Swaraj, was trolled by a section of the Twitteratti which took great umbrage at his rather regressive stance.

The senior Supreme Court advocate had posted a news story about the Centre informing the Delhi High Court, on Tuesday, today that it cannot criminalise marital rape. As doing so would “destabilise the institution of marriage” and “become an easy tool for harassing the husbands”.

Kaushal had tweeted: “There will be more husbands in the jail, than in the house.”

When a Twitter user – Amit Choudhary – asked the former Governor  if he was defending marital rape, Swaraj, who uses the Twitter handle @governorswaraj, tweeted: “There is nothing like marital rape. Our homes should not become police stations”.

Kaushal comments immediately triggered a backlash from various Twitter users.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]However,

On Thursday, May 18, light rain is predicted for in Delhi based on the seven-day prediction for the city. The sky will mainly be cloudy, with the potential of a light  rain or drizzle, according to the weather office.

The air quality will continue to be deteriorated in the city after strong winds with dust swept across the Delhi-NCR on Tuesday. Following this, visibility had reduced to 1000 metres. Kuldeep Srivastava, the head of regional forecasting centre, said the dry atmosphere is one of the reasons for the dust storms.

Following Tuesday’s severe winds and dust storm that blasted across the Delhi-NCR, the city’s air quality had taken an alarming dip.

The monsoons, which are awaited across India, are likely to make landfall in Kerala on June 4. Usually, the monsoon arrives on May 31 or June 1 but the delay will be made up as the phenomenon progresses on its south-west to north-east arc. With extreme temperatures right from a cold sytart to May to dust-laden winds in mid-May, the weather in the country is paying the price for accelerating climate change.

Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu has filed a complaint with the Punjab Police after he spotted a suspicious person wrapped in a grey blanket on his terrace. He alleged a security lapse at his Patiala home. He couldn’t catch him as he fled after his servant raised an alarm.

Taking to Twitter, Sidhu said, Today on the terrace of his residence an unknown suspicious character wrapped in a grey blanket was noticed around 7:00 pm, the moment his servant went out raised the alarm, and called for help, he immediately ran and escaped.

The 59-year-old further said that he has spoken to DGP Punjab Police and has also informed SSP Patiala. He said the security lapse will not deter him from raising his voice for Punjab.

Punjab Police registered a case in this matter. According to the reports, the Patiala Senior Superintendent of Police Varun Sharma visited his residence after the complaint and is currently investigating the matter. The CCTV footage of the area is also being scanned, reports state.

Cricketer-turned-politician came out of the Patiala Central Jail on April 1 after serving nearly 10 months in a 1988 road rage case. After his release from jail, he slammed the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government for its law and order in the state.

He said Democracy is in chains. Punjab is the shield of this country. When dictatorship came in this country, a revolution also came, led by Rahul Gandhi.

Sidhu also slammed the Mann government over the pruning of security of slain singer Sidhu Moosewala and also making it public.

Earlier today, another Air India incident occurred where a London-bound flight returned to Delhi’s IGI airport after a mid-air brawl between an unruly passenger and the flight’s cabin crew.

A brawl ensued between a passenger and the crew members shortly after it departed from the airport at around 6:35 am. The onboard ruckus forced the plane to turn around and return to Delhi again where the raucous passenger was deboarded and handed over to the police at the airport.

Air India apologized to the passengers on the affected Delhi-London flight for the delay and inconvenience caused to them due to the incident and assured them that efforts will be made to ensure such incidents do not occur in the future.
