Paralysed husband brought to court on a stretcher in maintenance case, as his wife claims he is fit and demands maintenance
In a maintenance proceeding under Section 125 CrPC, a man was produced before the court on a stretcher, visibly paralysed and unable to speak, walk, or perform basic bodily functions. He has been bedridden for nearly five years following a brain haemorrhage that left the left side of his body non-functional.
According to his family, the marriage lasted barely a month before the wife returned to her parental home and initiated multiple proceedings, including a case under Section 498A IPC and a maintenance petition.
Despite the husband’s grave medical condition, the wife allegedly claimed before the court that he was “completely healthy” and deliberately avoiding court appearances.
The family stated that they had already submitted medical records, photographs, and hospital documents clearly establishing his condition.
However, due to proceedings initiated in the 498A case, where he was declared an absconder and coercive steps under Sections 82 and 83 CrPC were proposed.
The police allegedly compelled the family to physically present him in court to secure bail, warning of property attachment if they failed to do so.
Left with no option, the family brought him to court on a stretcher so that both the court and the complainant could see his condition first-hand. During the hearing, the court reportedly took note of his medical state after seeing him in person.
When documentary medical evidence is already on record, forcing the physical production of a paralysed, non-communicative individual raises uncomfortable questions about proportionality, empathy, and the true purpose of legal process.
Maintenance law exists to prevent destitution, not to become a tool of coercion divorced from facts. Criminal procedure exists to ensure justice, not to mechanically push families into inhuman situations.
I introduced The National Commission for Men Bill, 2025, a key step toward ensuring fairness, support, and protection for men.
The Bill safeguards men’s rights, provides a platform to address grievances, and reviews laws and policies affecting men, promoting a more balanced approach to gender issues in our society.

A Gurgaon Court has ruled that a husband acquitted under IPC 498A can pursue damages for malicious prosecution, even if his wife appeals the acquittal, dismissing objections over court fee and cause of action under Order VII Rule 11 CPC.

Am I the only one who finds this PolicyBazaar ad insanely insensitive?
A man just passed away, and the first thing his wife does is blame him for not buying term insurance?
This isn’t financial awareness, it’s just insensitive storytelling.
