Dr. Ashok Kumar Mittal's private member's Bill, introduced in the Rajya Sabha in December 2025, proposes a statutory National Commission for Men modeled on the NCW, to probe men's grievances and Section 498A misuse, alongside welfare and counselling services. It explicitly bars intervening in a woman's complaint unless a court has already found it false or malicious. The demand gained momentum after high-profile suicides (Atul Subhash, Puneet Khurana) and murders of husbands (Raja Raghuvanshi, Ketan Agarwal) fuelled #MenToo activism. Courts have repeatedly upheld Section 498A's constitutionality (Janshruti v. UOI, 2025) under Article 15(3)'s protective-legislation exception, while cautioning against misuse case-by-case. As a private bill, its chances of passage remain historically slim.
