On the promise of marriage, I was raped. What are my legal options ?

You can file a police complaint against him. Also you can file a civil suit asking to stop his marriage with the other girl. As far as the proof in writing about his promise to marry you, some kind of proof, evidence will be required, if not exactly written in such words specifically. I have one more such case right now with me, and we are also mobiising evidence. You can meet that girl n our office some day.

Question: I want to file a case against my boyfriend who shared a physical relationship with me on pretext of marriage. Ours was a 3 year old relationship. I was not ready to share a physical relationship with him but he promised me that he will get married to me. I went ahead. We even met each other's parents and the relationship was going good until his parents found a girl for him from whom they are getting dowry. I had always said that neither me nor my parents would engage in any such thing. I still ask him to choose her or me. Now he says that he wants to get married to the other girl. Now I feel cheated and I feel I was raped for all these years on the promise of marriage. I want to file case against him. Please help me, I am undergoing a lot of mental stress. I read somewhere that I need to have it written that he promised to marry me. I do have a note like that.

Ans: any verbal communication, or eye witness, who could testify that he had promised, could establish the same and you can file a case of cheating, however, that will not help in getting him married, unless elders support you to get him married.

Physical relationship on the pretext of marriage is considered as rape.

On June 2013, The Honerable High Court Justice R V Eshwar passed the order in this connection saying any physical relation on the pretext of marriage will b considred as rape.

You file a complaint immediately against them in your jurisdiction police station which will be under section 376, 420 IPC.

If you do have a note where he has promised to marry you and only after that you had shared the bed with him based on that promise, it can be construed as rape and cheating and you can go to the police and file a complaint
