Bombay High court : Wife not a chattel of husband

Srinagar s Boulevard road portion collapses While ruling that a wife s refusal to make tea for her husband would not amount to a grave and sudden provocation for killing her, the Bombay High Court sharply observed that a wife is not the husband s property required to all the household work. Upholding a judgement of a lower court awarding a 10-year jail to a Solapur man for assaulting his wife with a hammer as she refused to make tea for him, as she later succumbed to her injuries, Bombay High Court Justice Revati Mohite-Dere commented on such instances of how a wife is treated like a chattel or an object , displaying the skewed patriarchy in a marital relationship.
