UP Husbands Flock to Human Rights Commission: Over 22,000 Complaints Filed Against Wives!
In an unexpected turn of events, a growing number of husbands in Uttar Pradesh are seeking help from the Human Rights Commission due to problems with their wives.
The Human Rights Commission often sees cases where women file complaints regarding harassment or mistreatment, especially when they feel their voices are not being heard. However, where do men go when they face similar issues? In an unexpected turn of events, a growing number of husbands in Uttar Pradesh are seeking help from the Human Rights Commission due to problems with their wives.
According to recent reports, there has been a significant rise in the number of men filing complaints with the Uttar Pradesh Human Rights Commission, citing harassment by their wives. So far this year, a staggering 22,522 complaints have been registered. Officials from the commission attribute this increase to greater public awareness of the issue.
An official from the commission stated, "In recent years, the number of husbands troubled by their wives has been steadily increasing, and so have the complaints. Many people also file complaints with the commission regarding other issues, such as the lack of action on their grievances or being denied benefits from government schemes."
Last Year’s Record
According to the statistics, between 2023 and 2024, 31,285 complaints were received by January. In the year 2022-23, the commission received 36,209 complaints. Interestingly, the highest number of complaints came in 2011-12, with a total of 38,824 cases reaching the commission.
Demand for a National Men's Commission
In 2023, a petition was filed in the Supreme Court, demanding the formation of a National Men's Commission. The petition referenced data from the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), which revealed that 33.2% of men committed suicide due to family-related issues, while 4.8% took their own lives due to marital disputes and domestic violence. The petition called for a comprehensive study of such cases and urged the establishment of a National Men's Commission to address these issues.
