Supreme Court ne 22 July 2025 ko ek landmark judgement mein Allahabad High Court ke guidelines ko approve kiya, jisme Section 498A IPC (Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita ke Section 85 ke under cruelty cases) ke misuse ko rokne ke liye Family Welfare Committees (FWC) ke constitution aur functioning ka zikr hai.
Chief Justice BR Gavai aur Justice AG Masih ki bench ne kaha ki 498A ke under FIR ya complaint ke baad 2 mahine tak koi arrest ya police action nahi hoga. Is “cooling period” mein case ko district ke FWC ko refer kiya jayega, jo matrimonial disputes ko settle karne ki koshish karega.
Allahabad HC ne 2022 mein Criminal Revision No. 1126 mein yeh guidelines issue kiye the, jisme kaha gaya tha ki FWC, jisme para-legal volunteers, social workers, ya retired persons honge, parties ke saath interact karega aur 2 mahine ke andar report dega.
Arrest tab tak nahi hoga jab tak committee ka report na aaye, aur investigation bhi specially trained officers hi karenge.
