National Commission for Women Prioritizing Pre-Marital Counselling – Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar

Vijay Gaur Bureau Chief - Delhi

40-50% of the complaints received by the National Commission for Women (NCW) are related to family disputes, including conflicts and violence between husbands and wives. While the police strive to resolve as many cases as possible, they also face significant pressure. To address these issues, pre-marital counselling is essential. Family and marriage form the foundation of Indian culture, but the traditional family system is weakening. The essence of Indianness and the institution of marriage are being affected by marital conflicts. Therefore, it is crucial to preserve and strengthen these values, making pre-marital counselling a necessity in today's society, said Smt. Vijaya Rahatkar, Chairperson of the National Commission for Women (NCW).
The NCW had organized a national conference on pre-marital counselling and education at Hotel Ramee Grand, Apte Road, on Tuesday. Justice Victoria Gowri of the Madras High Court and NCW Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar were present at the program. Lawyers, judges, NGOs, and counsellors from across the country participated in the program.
The conference discussed topics such as emotional and financial preparation before marriage, communication skills, conflict resolution techniques, legal rights, and protection against domestic violence, and the inclusion of pre-marital counselling in educational institutions.
Justice Victoria Gowri of the Madras High Court said, “Our joint family system is an integral part of our culture. Pre-marital counselling is essential to sustain it. Counselling is needed to deal with the complexities of married life, ensure open communication, address emotional needs, and maintain a healthy relationship between couples. Marriage is a beautiful institution. Pre-marital counselling is not a preventative measure but a constructive approach for personal growth, promoting healthy communication, and strengthening the bond between couples.
