The Supreme Court on Monday refused to entertain a PIL seeking framing of guidelines to deal with incidents of suicide committed by married men subjected to domestic violence and the constitution of a ’National Commission for Men’ to safeguard their interests.
A bench comprising Justices Surya Kant and Dipankar Datta expressed disinclination to consider the matter.
"You just want to portray a one-sided picture. Can you give us the data of young girls dying soon after marriage?... Nobody wants to commit suicide, it depends on the facts of an individual case," the bench observed.
