This book is a good mirror of our times when marriages break on the slightest pretext .
The story deals with the marriage between a Software Engineer Rohit with Poornima. Even though Rohit was from a well established family in Bangalore they have chosen Poornima who was not so well off. Rohit’s family had to bear all costs of the marriage because of this but they were happy doing that.
Poornima’s family was not well off but they always wanted to show off their power. Her uncle Gautham always boasted of his connection with local MLA and wanted to stand in election. Her other family members were arrogant too.
Due to these reasons Rohit wanted to cancel the marriage after engagement but could not do so. He thought Poornima and her family will change after marriage but their illogical demands only grew big. Rohit and his family members could never satisfy them with anything.
After sometimes Rohit and his parents got falsely booked under Indian Penal Code 498a and were sent to jail.
Indian Penal Code 498A, is a criminal law and is cognizable, non-compoundable and non-bailable. It a law often misused by unscrupulous daughter-in-laws that have ruined ordinary middle class families.
The book is a fine potrayal of the hardships of ordinary middle class family while dealing with a corrupt criminal justice system especially in marital disputes.
An excellent book to read.
