Is India a third wave country?
Now, after the second wave of coronavirus, the third wave may knock on the door. It is crucial to take early precautions to avoid the risk of infections.

It is indicated that Delta variants are more dangerous and harmful than the first and second phases. This virus is all ready to set the new third phase of COVID.

Most of the times marriages in rural society are emotionally forced. However, in urban society it is much better.
In India parents of the bride and groom 'marry' each another along with the boy and girl.
The girls and the boys are held as immature brats meant to jump to bed to procreate babies in their names so that they become grandmothers and grandfathers sooner than later under their strict guidance in the caste-laden society with the transfer of wealth (Dahej- dowry) between parents and a good share donated (Dan-dakshana) to the Hindu clergymen who solemnize the marriage according to the Janam-patri (Birth chart and caste). Hindu clergymen and their supporters cascade problems for those who do romantic marriage. Forced marriages usually result into domestic violence because the boy and the girl are blind-folded into marriage by their parents with whom they are obliged for rearing. Quick negotiation for wealth transfer is done by the parents and forced into marriage which eventually results into domestic violence and the husbands falling victim to the Indian Dowry Act (IPC 498a) ruining their lives. The idle housewives usually enjoy favor in the Hindu-dharma-society with Hindu clergymen acting as Rama (Lord) and the husband proclaimed as the Ravana (demon) fit to go to jail under the non-bailable, non-compoundable law.
The girls and the boys are hardly given anytime to understand each other before marrying, what to speak about the few months or few years of dating to read each other's mind. Indians see each other's body and marry under parental and social pressure of segregation by all other 'kayaris' (castes - who are themselves determined to marry in their own 'kayari') - having no regard to any other human qualities.

The Indian Penal Code
Introduction
In the uncivilized society no person was said to be safe from attacks to his person
or property by any other person. The person attacked either succumbed or overpowered
his opponent. A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, a life for a life was
the rule of law. With the advancement of time, the injured person agreed to accept
compensation, instead of killing his adversary. For a long time the function of
settling the terms remained with the parties themselves, but gradually this function
came to be performed by the State.
In India the criminal jurisprudence came into existence from the time of
Manu. Manu has recognized assault, theft, robbery, false evidence, slander,
criminal breach of trust, cheating, adultery and rape. The king protected his
subjects and the subjects in return owed him allegiance and paid him revenue.
The king administered justice himself, if unable due to certain circumstances, the
matter was entrusted to a judge. If a criminal was fined, the fine went to the king's
treasury and was not given as compensation to the injured party.
Different laws came into existence in the reins of different rulers. When the
Britishers came into India they adopted a different set of law which was based on
British pattern, but it was not uniform throughout India. Different regulations were
passed prescribing practice and procedure to be followed. In 1834 the first Indian
Law Commission was constituted to investigate into the jurisdiction, powers and
rules of the existing courts as well as police establishments and into the laws in
operation in British India. The Indian Penal Code was drafted by the first Indian
Law Commission under the president-ship of Macaulay and was submitted to the
Governor-General of India in Council in 1837. It was circulated to the Judges and
law advisers of the Crown. In 1845, another Commission was appointed to review
the Code. This Commission submitted its report in two parts, one in 1846 and the
other in 1847. The Code was revised according to the report of the Commission
but it never saw the light of the day. Subsequently, it was revised by two Law
Members of the Governor-General of India in Council and was presented to the
Legislative Council in 1856.
Act 45 of 1860
The Indian Penal Code Bill was passed by the Legislative Council and it received
