India Today: Should Indian men get a statutory body like the National Commission for Women (NCW) in the interest of equal justice? Harinarayan Rajbhar, a BJP MP, thinks so.
In an ANI interview, Rajbhar said such a commission should be created "on the lines" of the NCW, and that men "should also get a platform".
And the rationale for this proposal?
Rajbhar spoke of incidents "where men suffer at the hands of their wives", and said "there should be no injustice [for] anyone".
Rajbhar, 68, is the MP from Ghosi, one of Uttar Pradesh's 80 Lok Sabha constituencies. And this isn't the first time he's advocated the creation of a national body for men's rights.
He brought up the issue in Parliament last month, and asked that the government establish a "Purush Aayog" to help men "suffering at the hands of their wives," according to a Press Trust of India report.
"Several of them are locked up in jails," he was quoted as saying.
And what did Rajbhar's fellow MPs make of this idea?
They burst out laughing.

On the lines of National Commission for Women, a commission for men should be made, men should also get a platform. In the present time, we see incidents where men suffer at the hands of their wives.
