General opinion (I didn't watch segment).
In real life R won't get legal rights on M's earning's, or his family property or business.🤗 that's also one of the reasons its irritating to hear regularly her I'm MAALKIN jaaps, I have rights of biwi/bahu chants onscreen..😔because R's marriage to M is illegal, invalid & since it has not followed proper Hindu marriage rituals on that night, its also Adharmic.
Forced/cheat/blackmailed weddings in India are termed illegal, when contested. Police, NGO women, child care rep, Tulsi's family who were part of that unpopular wedding in RM serial know well that it was NOT a regular mutual consent marriage, with NO pressure on either parties. M's chastity & reputation, his families honor, G's custody case, R's bigamy & cheating case against him were used as a FORCE on M to make him wed R. 😒
Fortunately Indian law says this..😳
'A FORCED marriage is a VIOLATION of human rights. Its also a form of gender violence since it usually involves mental abuse, emotional blackmail, coercion from either family or society'.
'Forcibly being made to enter into a marriage is a clear violation of this fundamental human right and the Indian legislature has put in place statutes and provisions to ensure this right isn’t breached and that there is sufficient recourse in law for the victims of forced marriages. This endeavour is further fortified by the fact that Article 23 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, 1996 also recognises the right of every person to marry of their choice and states that no marriage shall be entered into without the free and full consent of either spouse.'
'The Indian Penal Code being the official criminal code of India, comprehensively covers all substantive facets of criminal law and expressly makes forced marriages a penal offence punishable under its provisions.'
'Since law recognises marriage as a contract, therefore, forced marriage is considered a voidable contract in law and a person forced into marriage has the right to render such marriage null and void at his/her option due to the lack of free consent and coercion.' 👍🏼
