The Dark Reality: False Dowry Cases as Tools of Blackmail and Extortion

Published

on

India, 17th May 2023, King NewsWireThe institution of marriage is ideally a sacred bond that unites two individuals and their families. However, in certain societies, the practice of dowry has sadly become a source of contention and manipulation. In recent years, there has been a disturbing trend of false dowry cases being filed against husbands and their families, often with the intention of blackmailing and extorting wealth. This deplorable misuse of the dowry system not only undermines the genuine struggle against dowry-related issues but also wreaks havoc on innocent lives. In this article, we delve into the depths of this issue, shedding light on the grave consequences of such false accusations and the urgent need for reform.

The Dowry System: A Brief Overview

The dowry system, deeply rooted in cultural traditions, involves the transfer of gifts, property, or money from the bride’s family to the groom’s family upon marriage. While this custom has evolved differently across various regions, it has unfortunately taken a dark turn in some cases, leading to exploitation and abuse.

False Dowry Cases: An Unsettling Trend

False dowry cases occur when a wife or her family accuses the husband and his relatives of demanding additional dowry or subjecting her to harassment. These accusations can range from verbal and physical abuse to allegations of dowry-related deaths. While it is crucial to acknowledge the existence of genuine cases, the increasing number of false accusations is a cause for serious concern.

Motives Behind False Dowry Cases

Several motives contribute to the rising prevalence of false dowry cases. One of the primary reasons is financial gain, as false accusers often aim to extort money from the husband and his family. By filing such cases, they exploit legal provisions and societal biases to manipulate the system for personal benefit.

Blackmail and Vengeance

Another motive behind false dowry cases is blackmail and revenge. In some instances, a disgruntled wife or her family may resort to false accusations as a means of exerting control over the husband or his family. This could be prompted by marital discord, personal vendettas, or disagreements over other issues unrelated to dowry.

Social Stigma and Legal Biases

The existence of deep-rooted biases and social stigmas surrounding dowry cases further complicates matters. The presumption of guilt often falls on the accused, leading to a challenging battle for the innocent parties involved. The societal prejudice and legal hurdles faced by the accused can have devastating consequences on their personal and professional lives.

The Impact on Innocent Lives

False dowry cases have far-reaching repercussions for innocent individuals and families. The accused face tarnished reputations, social ostracism, and immense emotional trauma. They may also suffer financial losses due to legal battles, which can drain their resources and disrupt their livelihoods. Additionally, the children of the accused often bear the brunt of these false accusations, experiencing significant psychological distress and an uncertain future.

The Urgent Need for Reform

Addressing the issue of false dowry cases requires a multifaceted approach that involves legal, societal, and educational reforms. Here are some key steps that can be taken to combat this problem effectively:

  1. Strengthen Legal Procedures: Implement stringent measures to prevent the misuse of dowry-related laws. This can include thorough investigations, mandatory mediation, and penalties for those found guilty of filing false cases.

  2. Awareness Campaigns: Conduct comprehensive awareness programs to educate people about the detrimental effects of false dowry cases. Such campaigns should focus on fostering empathy, promoting gender equality, and dispelling harmful stereotypes.

  3. Support Systems: Establish support systems for the accused, providing legal aid, counseling, and rehabilitation services to help them navigate the emotional and financial aftermath of false accusations.

  4. Gender Sensitization: Integrate gender sensitization programs into educational curricula and workplaces, aiming to promote respect, equality, and healthy relationships.


In a recent case it has been said that the granddaughter of the Ex-Prime minister of India has accused her husband and in-laws in a dowry case.Adrija Manjari Singh is the granddaughter of Late V. P. Singh who served as the Prime mister of India. She has accused her husband of demanding dowry in 2023. They got married in 2017 and what is strange is that these accusations have been made years after. On speaking to friends and family members of both sides it has come to light that the Marriage of Adrija and her husband Arkesh Singh Deo who also hails from a political family of Orissa had only recently started going sour after the arrival of her sister. Arkesh’s friends have confirmed that Adrija’s sister moved into the house of her sister and brother in-law and that’s when the marriage started to get effected. Apparently Richa would instigate her sister to ask her husband to get his inheritance from his parent and even ask Adrija to get pregnant fast in order to seek more financial gains from her in-laws.

On doing further investigation on the girl’s side of the family many new things have come to light. The two girls are digging up old skeletons and are known to be serial litigants. They have lodged numerous cases on people to whom their grand-parents and great grand parents have sold various properties to. Their faither Ajay Singh who on Wikipedia is said to be a pretender to the throne of the royal family of Manda is also facing financial losses as he has done illegal construction of properties in Allahbad now Prayagraj. The two girls are fighting cases in Dehradun, Mussoorie and Nainital with people who have rightfully purchased lands from the grandfather and great grandfathers decades ago. Knowing well that cases in India take time they have finally decided to blackmail Adrija’s in-laws and it is said that they have demanded for over a hundred crore worth of assets from the Singh Deo family. They have taken possession of the home in Dehradun and do not permit the in-laws to set foot in the house. The husband Arkesh says that ever since his sister in-law set foot in the house his relationship with his wife has gone downhill. He also added that if she visited from time to time it was understandable but to live in his home for 6 months to a year is not right. Both the girls consume alcohol and get abusive with him and say nasty things about his family.

Conclusion

The rise in false dowry cases is a grave concern that threatens the integrity of the dowry system and adversely affects innocent lives. It is crucial to distinguish between genuine cases of dowry harassment and false accusations that are driven by greed, revenge, or manipulation. By implementing legal reforms, raising awareness, and fostering gender equality, society can work towards eradicating this deplorable practice and protecting the rights and dignity of all individuals involved. Only then can we hope for a fair and just society, free from the clutches of false dowry cases.

World Mobile Token Announces Cross-Chain Bridges to BNB Chain and Ethereum

Published

on

–News Direct–

World Mobile has announced the creation of dedicated cross-chain bridges to both BNB Chain and Ethereum. The deployments will provide a secure and convenient way for users to move World Mobile Token (WMT) between Cardano, BNB Chain and Ethereum.

The implementation of cross-chain bridges is part of World Mobiles multi-chain strategy, designed to give more users exposure to its growing ecosystem. By introducing WMT to existing users of BNB Chain and Ethereum, World Mobile will enable more people to tap into its mobile data solution and reap the rewards. The initiative will also increase liquidity for WMT, making it easier for users to efficiently enter and exit positions. Both BNB Chain and Ethereum will be integrated into World Mobiles sidechain AyA, providing increased flexibility for its EarthNode operators.

World Mobiles decision to bridge to BNB Chain and Ethereum comes hot on the heels of its partnership with Conflux Network, the only regulatory-compliant public blockchain in China. As part of that partnership, WMT was bridged into the Conflux blockchain, marking the first time WMT was bridged outside of the Cardano ecosystem. World Mobiles decision to add BNB Chain and Ethereum to its cross-chain destinations was driven by their speed, scalability and high number of active users. BNB Chain in particular has seen strong growth in recent times, surpassing the milestone of two million daily active users.

Zachary Vann, Head of Token at World Mobile Token, said: We are delighted to announce that World Mobile Token is now bridging to both BNB chain and Ethereum, two of the most influential and innovative blockchains in the crypto space. This is a significant step forward for our multi-chain strategy, as it will enable our token to access the rich and diverse ecosystems on both chains. It will also enhance the interoperability and liquidity of WMT, and support further growth of World Mobiles AyA sidechain.

World Mobiles vision is to create a more inclusive and sustainable mobile ecosystem where users can earn revenue and have greater ownership over network infrastructure and data. Expanding its cross-chain reach is part of World Mobiles strategy to onboard more users and create more value for participants in its sharing economy.

About World Mobile

World Mobile was founded with a far-reaching goal: to connect everyone, everywhere while advocating for economic freedom and dignity. Unlike traditional mobile networks, World Mobile is based on blockchain and incentivizes people to be part of a sharing economy that taps into the trillion dollar global telecom market.

Tasmania poised to become a global Green Methanol leader – fuelling the next wave of the energy transition.

Development Aerial View

Hydro Tasmania has announced the signing of a term sheet with Bell Bay Powerfuels for the sale of
the decommissioned Bell Bay Power Station, following an Expression of Interest process launched by
Hydro Tasmania in December 2022.

Launceston, Tasmania Aug 3, 2023 (Issuewire.com) – Hydro Tasmania has announced the signing of a term sheet with Bell Bay Powerfuels for the sale of the decommissioned Bell Bay Power Station, following an Expression of Interest process launched by Hydro Tasmania in December 2022.

The $1.2B Bell Bay Powerfuels Project currently under development by its Australian parent company ABEL Energy, with financial and project support from Iberdrola Australia, involves a green hydrogen and green methanol production facility, to be built at the power station site.

The selection of the site now accelerates project development, with front end engineering and design- FEED – due to start in a few months’ time. Commercial operation is scheduled to commence in 2027.

The project will also require the development of new power generation assets, to provide sufficient renewable power for the proposed 240MW electrolyser unit. This unit will generate the green hydrogen required for the onsite production of green methanol. This safe, clean-burning, net-zero liquid is currently in strong demand as an emerging fuel for new ships on order by some of the world’s largest shipping companies.

At the proposed 300,000 tonnes per annum of output, this is a global-scale green methanol project, the largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. The renewable power assets needed to produce the fuel will be developed with Iberdrola which has
substantial global experience in renewable power generation.

Hydro Tasmania’s Bell Bay Power Station was originally oil-fired when commissioned in 1971. It had its own deep water berth to receive the incoming ocean-going oil tankers. The berth is still in place and will be used by Bell Bay Powerfuels for the export of green methanol. The power station will otherwise be demolished although there is a desire to retain and repurpose some of the other existing structures where possible.
Construction of the project will require about 500 people, with ongoing operations involving about 250+ direct and indirect jobs.
Significant progress has already been made across other project components such as supply of biomass from certified plantations, sustainable water sourcing, engineering capability and green methanol offtake arrangements.

ABEL Energy Pty Ltd | www.abelenergy.com.au

Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of ABEL Energy, Michael van Baarle, said:

” This announcement is the start of a very unique period for Tasmanian renewable
energy. We are on the cusp of being a global leader in green methanol production,
the future fuel of world shipping. It’s a great win for all Tasmanians particularly the
Tamar Valley communities of George Town and Launceston.”

Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Iberdrola Australia, Ross Rolfe, AO, said:

” Iberdrola Australia’s support for the Bell Bay Powerfuels green methanol project
is part of our broad commitment to helping deliver decarbonisation solutions for
commercial and industrial customers in historically hard-to-abate sectors. In addition
to our partnership with Bell Bay Powerfuels, Iberdrola is providing technical and
commercial support for the project, enabling the development to benefit from our
local market expertise and global capabilities in this emerging technology.”

Eric North, The Happiness Warrior is here with a different perspective of ‘Pride’

Published

25C2 25A9 2BTony 2BPowell 2BHappiness 2BWarrior 2BEric 2BNorth 2BJanuary 2B8 252C 2B2021 6

New York City, New York Aug 2, 2023 (Issuewire.com) – June is the month of Pride when the LGBTQ+ community celebrates and embraces their gender and sexuality. However, people are still unaware of the fact what kind of struggles one goes through to find out and establish their gender identity. Eric North takes this opportunity to redefine ‘Pride’ for everyone while sharing his turmoil and offering a potential dose of motivation to stay true to self. While most people consider that ‘Pride’ is all about festivities and parades, the true meaning is lying underneath. Eric feels, somewhere around the celebration; people are missing out on the real meaning of resonating.

As The Happiness Warrior, Eric believes that pride is a form of joyous rebellion that comes with a sense of freedom and is capable of empowering everyone. While it offers an amalgamation of self-esteem and satisfaction, pride is also something that defines a person and makes them proud of themselves. Eric says that Pride is an authentic state of being in alignment with our truth. It is universally true and simple, yet there is so much unnecessary struggle and complexity in it. Eric questions why humans are living in fear of who they really are. To find out the answer, he has to look back at the series of traumatic events that he has to go through until he really found himself, free and proud.

Eric had to struggle in his childhood as he often felt confused and disconnected, which turned him distant. In order to relieve his parents from the shame of having a bad kid, Eric actively tried to change his behavior to please others. His father was emotionally abusive and that made Eric refrain even more about his real identity and who he really was. Similarly, there was his father’s friend Garry who made Eric shrink in fear with stories of beating women and gay men. The misogynistic womanizing air in the house was quite suffocating for him. Eric carefully kept himself hidden until he went to college and could finally address his sexuality without any fear or shame. Though school treated him normally, deep within he knew there was no place for him. In order to save himself and his pride, Eric went out after graduation, and through all these years of practice; he finally become The Happiness Warrior.

It is not just Eric but he knows that many men and women in that era were confused and unhappy and what triggered it even more is the societal prejudice of violence and hatred. As a result, most individuals could find themselves indulged in years of self-loathing and destructive behavior. Eric could never understand the meaning of pride and just like others as most people were discriminated against and made feel guilty and shameful about their gender identity. In the late ’70s, the “me” generation emerged and brought a time of sexual liberation to society. The social landscape was quickly changed with Birth control, a forgotten war, and gay rights. As a result, more people like Eric started to find out and embrace their true gender identity without any fear or shame. From the cringe, rigid and misogynistic society to the acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community; the path was not easy and Eric has witnessed it all. Now he believes that a better life is always waiting for all on the other side, all it takes is to step forward.

The constant sense of shame and embarrassment for not living up to the truth can be very disheartening and can lead a person to an existential crisis. Therefore, it is necessary for everyone to find out for themselves and stick to their true identity. When a person does not trust in self fully, there will be many missed choices and opportunities. Eric has witnessed that first-hand and now is paving the way for everyone to embrace themselves while achieving true happiness in life. It takes a lot of consistency, determination, and struggle to stay on the right path but it is also true that difficult experiences can make a person braver and more confident. Winning the battle within, Eric became the Happiness Warrior who speaks for and is ready to fight for all. He is showing the route where humans live in pride, free of self-defeating talk and negative emotions.

As the Happiness Warrior, Eric North speaks for every single one of the struggle individuals around the world as he believes in unifying power rather than something very exclusive. The key lies in keeping an open mind and heart that helps to take pride in their ability to be understanding without judgment. The power of self-love and reinvention offers a sense of pride that makes humans believe in themselves. In this pride month, Eric has decided to redefine ‘Pride; for everyone to which all can relate without being a part of any exclusive group. Happiness is greater when it is shared by all and Eric proves that again. Learning how to think freely and advocating for the acceptance of others can turn anyone into a better person. And Eric is offering all the effective tools and practices to embark on the journey.

Eric knows that everyone can take pride in themselves when they know the difference between living their own lives for own selves instead of others. He shows that path that can help everyone raise their self-esteem while finding the ‘perfect’ version of every individual. It is the only path to true happiness which now can be easily gained as everyone can be more visible and heard in this era. Pride isn’t something that one group holds alone, but something that can unify everyone together. Eric believes that every individual can have more pride when they are able to realize the connections in their lives that draw humans together. The happiness gets greater magnitude when self-esteem rises and people can actually value themselves for who they really are.
