Parents should be supportive of their children in live-in relationships so that they do not hesitate to share their thoughts and feelings, <keyword id="41150" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="ncw" source="Orion">NCW</keyword> <keyword id="9334869" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="chairperson-rekha-sharma" source="Orion">Chairperson Rekha Sharma</keyword> said on Friday, amid the recent horrific murders of women by their live-in partners in the country. Pointing out the recent cases of brutal murders by partners in live-in relationships, National Commission for Women (NCW) chief said that it was seen in these cases that parents were not supportive of their children being in a live-in relationship. "In Nikky Yadav's case, the man's parents were putting pressure on him to get married. The parents must support their child's choice and respect it. Even in <keyword id="11250" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="shraddha" source="Orion">Shraddha</keyword>'s case, the family was not in touch with her," Sharma told PTI. She said parents must accept live-in relationships of their children. "Parents should be supportive of their children being in live-in relationships. We should also ensure we treat our children with respect and refrain from treating them as possessions. Such behaviour may cause the children to hesitate to share their thoughts and feelings. It is important to treat our children, especially when they come of age, as our friends, allowing them to confide in us," She said. In a recent incident, a 24-year-old man allegedly strangled his live-in partner with a mobile phone cable on February 10, and hid her body in a refrigerator in his dhaba on the outskirts of Mitraon village in southwest Delhi. According to police, the accused, <keyword id="16530344" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="sahil-gehlot" source="Orion">Sahil Gehlot</keyword>, married a woman the same day he killed his girlfriend, <keyword id="16530345" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="nikki-yadav" source="Orion">Nikki Yadav</keyword>.

Parents must support live-in relationships says chief of National Commission for Women

Asserting that a woman or a girl is killed every 11 minutes by an intimate partner or a family member, UN chief <keyword id="300649" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="antonio-guterres" source="Orion">Antonio Guterres</keyword> has said that violence against them is the most pervasive "human rights violation" in the world and called on governments to implement national action plans that tackle this scourge. Secretary General Guterres made these remarks ahead of the International Day for the 'Elimination of Violence against Women' which is observed on November 25. "Violence against women and girls is the most pervasive human rights violation in the world. Every 11 minutes, a woman or a girl is killed by an intimate partner or family member - and we know that other stresses, from the COVID-19 pandemic to economic turmoil, inevitably lead to even more physical and verbal abuse," Guterres said. Guterres' remarks come in the backdrop of the recent <keyword id="15514202" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="shraddha-walker" source="Orion">Shraddha Walker</keyword> murder case that has shocked India with its brutal details. He said women and girls also face rampant online violence, from misogynistic hate speech to sexual harassment, image abuse and grooming by predators. "This discrimination, violence and abuse targeting half of humanity come at a steep cost. It limits women's and girls' participation in all walks of life, denies their basic rights and freedoms, and blocks the equal economic recovery and sustainable growth our world needs," he said. The UN chief gave a clarion call to all to "consign violence against women and girls to the history books," saying now is the time for transformative action that ends violence against women and girls. He said this means governments designing, funding and implementing national action plans to tackle this scourge, involving grass-roots and civil society groups at every stage of decision-making and ensuring that laws are implemented and respected, so survivors see their rights to justice and support upheld. Calling on governments to increase funding by 50 per cent to women's rights organisations and movements by 2026, Guterres urged all to take a "stand and raise our voices in support of women's rights" and proudly declare that "we are all feminists." He called for supporting public campaigns that challenge patriarchal norms and promote different forms of masculinities that reject misogyny and violence. Noting that this year's theme on an international day is 'UNITE: Activism to End Violence Against Women and Girls', Guterres said it means standing with activists around the world who are calling for change and supporting survivors of violence. Walker's live-in partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala allegedly strangled her and sawed her body into 35 pieces, which he kept in a fridge for almost three weeks at his home in south Delhi's <keyword id="195857" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mehrauli" source="Orion">Mehrauli</keyword> area. He then dumped the body across the city over several days. Walker had often complained about being physically assaulted by Poonawala, her friends have said.

The <keyword id="6354977" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="supreme-court" source="Orion">Supreme Court</keyword> on Monday dismissed a <keyword id="6355791" type="General" weightage="70" keywordseo="pil" source="Orion">PIL</keyword> seeking framing of norms for <keyword id="15311949" type="TOPIC" weightage="60" keywordseo="Registration" source="TOPIC" sourcekeytype="investopedia" meta.keywordsubtype="null" meta.seopath="r/registration" meta.entityname="Registration" meta.hostid="153" meta.entityid="registration">registration</keyword> of every live-in relationship with the Centre and termed it a "hare-brained" idea. A bench, headed by Chief Justice <keyword id="445662" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="d-y-chandrachud" source="Orion">D Y Chandrachud</keyword>, asked the counsel for the petitioner, lawyer Mamta Rani if she wanted to foster the <keyword id="15308388" type="TOPIC" weightage="60" keywordseo="Security" source="TOPIC" sourcekeytype="finance,investopedia" meta.keywordsubtype="null" meta.msid="92650302" meta.seopath="s/security" meta.entityname="Security" meta.hostid="153" meta.entityid="security">security</keyword> of these people or wanted them not to get into <keyword id="13201450" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="Live-in-relationships" source="Orion">live-in relationships</keyword>. The counsel replied that the petitioner wanted the relationship to be registered to enhance their social security. "What does the Centre has to do with registration of live-in relationships? What kind of hare-brained idea is this? It is high time this court start imposing cost on petitioners who file these kinds of PILs. Dismissed," the bench also comprising Justices P S Narasimha and J B Pardiwala said. The PIL was filed by Rani seeking a direction to the Centre to frame rules for registration of live-in relationships as it cited an increase in crimes like rape and murder allegedly committed by live-in partners. The plea, which referred to the recent killing of <keyword id="15515837" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="shraddha-walkar" source="Orion">Shraddha Walkar</keyword> allegedly by her live-in partner Aaftab Amin Poonawala, also sought framing of rules and guidelines for registration of such relationships. The PIL said registration of live-in relationships would lead to accurate information being available to both the live-in partners about each other and also to the government about each of them regarding their marital status, criminal history and other relevant details. Besides the increase in crimes like rape and murder, the plea said there has been a "huge increase in false rape cases filed by women wherein they claim to be living in live-in relationships with the accused, and it is always difficult for the courts to find out from the evidence whether the <keyword id="11837718" type="DOMAIN" weightage="20" keywordseo="fact" botkeyword="" source="ET" sourcekeytype="COMPANY" meta.keywordsubtype="EQ" meta.aliasname="fact" meta.entityname="The Fertilisers and Chemicals Travancore Ltd." meta.entityid="11995" meta.seoname="the-fertilisers-and-chemicals-travancore-ltd">fact</keyword> of living in live-in relationships is proved by the backing of evidence".
