The new domestic violence law has enacted. Do we need that law as it offers huge advantage for copmlainant and can be easily misused by her as we have seen in some cases till now. One of which was the complaint against WIPRO chief also besides spouse. Could'nt it be better handled through normal laws?

There absolutely is a need to have a domestic violence law, especially now a days with violence being out of control. It seems like you hear more and more these days of husbands or wives abusing one another. I certainly understand what you mean but the police have to determine whether it was domestic violence or not.
