Despite the alarming suicide figures for Men in India — largely due to family and marital problems — we still do not have any commission for the male gender. We also do not have a family welfare commission that can deal with marital problems as a whole. Unfortunately, one sided commission (NCW India) may not be fair in their assessments towards men/husbands, who often men are labelled as abusers/culprits even before a court judgement.
