Matrimonial Property Law in India

This book outlines the principles guiding the division of assets on the termination of marriage and suggests legislative reforms to bring about a more equitable and just system. Although the book deals with the Indian context, the author uses examples from other countries to provide possible solutions to the contentious problems which policy-makers and judges face. This book will be useful for those dealing in marital law, property law and gender justice. It will also be welcomed by women’s groups and NGOs for its positive stance on women’s rights.
