Hyderabad, Oct. 26: Congress MP Renuka Chowdhary has filed a complaint against daughter Poojita’s in-laws, accusing them of harassment for dowry, says our special correspondent. Poojita was married to London-based opthalmologist Satya Sai Prasad a few months ago.
Renuka called on police officials and chief minister Chandrababu Naidu recently after filing the complaint on October 18.
Poojita’s father-in-law, Lajpat Roy, a British national, was arrested at the airport when he arrived in Hyderabad from London. He was released on bail.
The police had so far kept the issue under wraps.

There must be a organized campaign to combat this evil scourge before it kill the entire country. Men should form organizations and support groups and do dharnas in front of the houses of females who file false cases. Go to minister’s houses and demand them to take action. Only a collective action will result in any useful outcome. There are a lot of people who are silently suffering. Turn this suffering on the oppressors and teach them a lesson. United we stand, the stronger we are.
Thanks,
Srinivas

I have sympathies with Renuka for what might have happened with her daughter. However, I believe Renuka is mentally unstable and is therefore misusing the Indian law by trying to punish all men, for what MIGHT have happened with her DAUGHTER.
RENUKA needs medical advise and good wishes from all COUNTRYMEN…
RENUKA – get well soon (see ‘Lage Raho Munna Bhai’).

1. CAN SOMEBODY OBTAIN COPY OF POLICE COMPLAINT TO FIND MISUSE OF
SECTION 498A IPC BY RENUKA CHAUDHARY?
2. TO FIND OUT EXTENT OF ALLEGATIONS IF FALSELY MADE IN COMPLAINT?
3. POOJITA IS A EDUCATEDAND MODERN WOMAN. WHY SHE COULD NOT HANDLE
HER PROBLEMS IN LONDON ITSELF.
4. WHY SHE HAD TO COMPLAINT THROUGH HER INFLUENCIAL MOTHER?
5. WHAT IS THE FINAL OUTCOME? WAS THE MATTER SETTLED AFTER PAYMENT
AS EXTORTION? IF YES- HOW MUCH?
6. GIRJA VYAS ADVICES AGAINST MISUSE OF 498A BY EDUCATED CLASS.
7. HOW RENUKA CHUADHARY SAID THAT ARJUNSINGH CENTRAL MINISTER WAS
NOT GUILTY OF 498A IPC BUT POOJITA’S FATHER-IN-LAW WAS GUILTY?
DISCLOSURES OF ALL THE DETAILS OF THIS CASE WILL HELP TO CORNER
UNSCRUPULOUS MOTHER/DAUGHTER RACKET FOR BLACKMAIL AND EXTORTION.

I would recomment that whoever complains of dowry harrassment , if they claim that they had given dowry during marriage and after several years of marriage if the girl complains that they were demanded dowry , they should be booked for giving dowry.

Renuka Chowdhary should be prosequeted under TADA for supporting & implementing the legal terrisiom. Since the supreme court has already declared it as Legal terrissiom can’t we sue her & blame the policies of the congress govt. Congress & it’s policies has eaten away our conntry. I think its high time we should think of pilotics as a carrer. Why donot we have a profesional qualification as a mandatory for the each of the related post. I think professionals can better manage the country as compared to politicians.
Also the some what global image what we have today is because of beaurocrats only it is because of them only eg Tata, Birla, Hinduja, ITC, RPG etc etc. On the contrary what these politicians have done? Only increased the amount & ways of bribery. Politicians should be barred from politics & then see the face of the country & its systems.
People like renuka are sick & their own sickness is causing problems to the entire nation. She has no moral values, no cultural knowledge, no respect to our country’s age old rituals; she only misguiding the young stram females of India under the name of women empowerment. She is poisioning the females of India & should be immediately stopped. She is biting us like a mad dog & every one knows what happens when a mad dog bites. 24 injections are to be taken to reduce it’s effect. Similarly these 24 injections are to those pople who are the relatives of the accused.
Instead of misusing the laws why doesn’t she try to conveince the girl & her parents about the future consequenses? Is she there to improve the situation or to fulfill the lawyers desires by giving them new cases. Is law ment to protect human beings or only made for people like renuka chaudahy – a female. So what do we do with this mad dog biting every girl & their relatives?
If renuka is a real leader & still has got some shame left out (ofcourse I am sure she is hated by the women comunity also except those head less females who support 498a & destroy their own houses) she must amend this law to gender neutral. Or else she should resign for drastic increasing the male deaths in the country.

Renuka Chowdhury’s daughter to get hitched

She’s a very talented documentary film-maker passionately involved
with women’s issues, but that’s not Poojita Chowdhury’s only
introduction—she is also the daughter of serving Union Minister for
Women and Child Development, firebrand politician Renuka Chowdhury.
There’s word that Poojita is readying to tie the knot with a US-based
NRI called Chaitanya —it’s apparently an arranged marriage.
The nuptials are scheduled to take place in Hyderabad on November 23
and will be followed by a reception in New Delhi that will be attended
by the who’s who of the political world. But despite the heavy duty
guest list, the the family wants to keep the whole affair low key,
given the current economic climate in the country.
Poojita, 30, has been in the news for her women centric films. A few
years ago when women barbers were banned from working at the Tirupati
temple in Andhra Pradesh, Poojita took up the matter. She has made
films like Gender Bender— about women breaking the glass ceiling in
male-dominated careers.
The first marriage of Poojita, the elder of Renuka’s two daughters,
ended in an acrimonous divorce which got widespread media attention
because Renuka invoked dowry laws against her in-laws.

Men folk from Khammam district must be castrated or eunuchs to have voted for my mom Renuka Choudhary twice. My dad was castrated soon after me and my sister were born. I guess my mom had most men in Khammam castrated and that’s why she continues to be elected from Khammam. You can find most hijdas/eunuchs in Khammam. Khammam is the Eunuch capital of India. Jai Ho Khammam. Continue voting for Renuka Choudhary.

Hating women is not natural from men, becasue all men are brought by mom. To hate women the man must have be suffered a lot in his life by woman because the mom-son relation is generally stongest in any relations. So the hate should not be punished abut the reason for hate must be punished. All women activists are sadists against men. Their thinking is I loose one eye so I take both of yours. Think who helps women, that too men. It is society!. Girls who paid huge amount of dowry are quite running their family well because they know if she uses the law she will loose the dowry paid . Onle men who never got dowry suffer by this misuse. So MEN Please take dowry legally(there are ways) and make sure your life is not threatend!!.

Unlike DV and rape cases the 498a is hitting both men and women. Any women sympthyzers will get their turn soon too.
The divorce law should allow no fault grounds for both parties.
The alimony must be eliminated as in Islam. Why should men work for women who is already seperated in the name of divorce and claim alimony. It is a slavery!.
The kids should stay whoever can support them. Boys after 7 years should live with father. In any democrazy all immportant is women vote.
