I think I have not got responses for the issues I raised. Summary of what I wanted to say was:
1) If live-in partners wanted any kind of legal backing there is already a system of marriage according to custom or registration of their marriage. New law for live-in will be superflous.
2)Not only it is superflous, it has potential to infringe/endanger the rights of legitimately married persons as I have detailed in my arguments. Enacting a law for those who choose not to marry will be like making a law for protection of jay walking pedestrians; clarly it is an insult to law abiding people who use foot path and zebra crossings.
I furthur want to say:
As to the issue of gays/lesbians or other deviants, the existing law of contracts provides ample scope for defining their individual rights and obligation of their relationships. I recall that some people in Gujrath had already set an example with their Maitri-Karar contract.
So why do we need a law that conflicts with custom/other existing laws?Private Reply to 7 Th Thinking Hat (new win) |
