In India, Weaponizing Marriage Laws To Subjugate Muslims
The forced abortiona of a Hindu woman married to a Muslim man should be treated like murder by the state. Yet, not much is being said about it, or other ways new laws are used to disenfranchise Muslims.
-Analysis-
NEW DELHI As 2020 comes to an end, two things can be said with certainty about India.
One, the state and nearly all its institutions have made it clear that the Muslims would be treated as subjects and not citizens with rights equal to Hindus.
Second, there is a growing realisation among the Muslims that the task of affirming their rights and rejecting the subjecthood imposed on them is something they cannot abdicate and leave for the future.

Delhi HC tells Crime Branch to trace woman who ‘eloped’ with Muslim man to Kolkata
“At this stage, we cannot accept the statements attributed to her as her voluntary statements. To satisfy our conscience, we would like that she be produced before us,” the bench said. December 23, 2020 7:21:44 am
THE DELHI High Court has directed the crime branch to register an FIR and ordered them to make “all-out efforts” to produce before it a woman who purportedly eloped with a Muslim man to Kolkata and is stated to have married him.
While hearing a habeas corpus petition filed by the woman’s father claiming that she was taken away “in an organised manner” to Kolkata on November 7, the HC bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Rajnish Bhatnagar addressed the police submission that she had married the man on January 4 and did not wish to be “disturbed”.
