Inter-Caste or Inter-Religious Marriges and Honour Related Violence in India

Abstract

Honour Crimes are a kind of Human Rights Violation in which the young men of much liberal thoughts, one who don’t believe in the chains of caste and creed are targeted, by harassing and murdering them. This is due to the reality that our Patriarchal society is too narrow-minded to permit an Inter-Caste Marriage or Inter-Religious Marriage. India has seen an exorbitant rise in these Honour Crimes. This paper deals with the socio-legal and judicial frameworks of ‘Honour Crimes’ in India and uncertainties surrounding the different judgments. The paper also emphasizes and criticizes the government’s casual approach in encountering the massive problem.
