For those who live in India or follow Indian news, you would be familiar with the Marital Rape Issue in 2022. In this episode, we discuss the concept of consent for both married and unmarried women. What does the Indian Penal Code say about this and why is it important for married women to have this right? When married women do not have this inherited right, what things happen to them? India had polarizing opinions on this issue. Listen as we break down this concept, the legal system and learn the reaction of society when it comes to a woman’s consent.
