Question

"Not only does this amount to gross injustice but also significant damages to the anti-dowry movement".

'Gross injustice' is done to whom in the given line?

• A. The accused of the dowry crime
• B. The anti-dowry movement
• C. The complainant
• D. The relatives of the accused

Answer 1

The correct option is A The accused of the dowry crime

According to the Indian Penal code, the law empowers the complainant in a dowry case to have the accused arrested even before investigation and this only incentivises the misuse of the law. It does gross injustice to the accused and damages the anti- dowry movement.

Thus, the 'gross injustice' in the question refers to option A) the accused of the dowry crime.
