association, and movement (Article 19);

And whereas the primordial human rights of life, liberty, equality and dignity

enshrined in the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993 shall be available to persons

exercising their decisional freedom;

And whereas these rights include the autonomy of all persons to choose their

partners, to enter into marriage and to lead lives with dignity;

And whereas the Constitution recognizes the liberty and autonomy which

inheres in each individual and includes the ability to take decisions on aspects

which define one's personhood and identity. This includes the choice of a partner

in marriage;

19

And whereas an alarming increase in violence, harassment, threats, and

social ostracism—often perpetrated in the name of caste hierarchy, honour,

custom, - is being directed against individuals, especially young couples, who

exercise their right to marry;

And whereas such violence disproportionately affects women, who are

subjected to patriarchal control over their choices, and men from marginalized

communities, who are targeted when their relationships cross caste boundaries;

And whereas endogamy operates as a structural mechanism designed to

preserve the caste system, and inter-caste marriages serve as essential

instruments for dismantling its rigid and oppressive framework and for advancing

the constitutional principle of fraternity;

And whereas the Constitution of India enshrines the principle of fraternity

as essential to securing the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of

the nation, and this principle demands the eradication of caste-based

discrimination and the promotion of social solidarity through the recognition and

protection of inter-caste marriages;

And whereas such acts constitute a grave violation of constitutional rights

and human dignity, and must be recognized not as private or familial matters, but

as serious offences warranting legal intervention and protection;

And whereas it is necessary to prevent individuals and groups from enforcing

caste based discrimination in individual choices;

And whereas it is necessary to create an environment of inclusivity,

promoting fraternity, mirroring the all embracing time honoured principle of "Eva

Nammava, Eva Nammava.";

And whereas it is necessary that proactive steps be taken to prevent the

commission of such acts and to establish comprehensive protective measures,

including preventive, remedial, and rehabilitative mechanisms, to safeguard

individuals and to ensure that State authorities are under a legal obligation to

respond effectively and uphold the constitutional rights to dignity, liberty, and

equality;

Now therefore, it is expedient to enact a law to affirm and protect the liberty,

dignity, and autonomy of all persons, to prevent crimes committed in the name of

“honour” and tradition, to penalize any conduct that interferes with individual

freedom of choice in marriage and to provide legal safeguards, remedies, and

institutional mechanisms for prevention, redressal, and rehabilitation.

STATEMENT OF OBJECTS AND REASONS

Whereas the persistence of caste-based discrimination in the State of

Karnataka continues to manifest in brutal forms of violence, including honour

killings, particularly against young adults who exercise their constitutional right to

choose their life partners through inter-caste marriages.

And whereas while offences like murder, assault, and criminal intimidation

are punishable under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita,2023 (Central Act 45 of 2023)

these provisions do not adequately address the specific social motive of preserving

perceived “caste honour” or the wide range of coercive practices employed from

performing death rituals (thithi) for living daughters, denying lawful inheritance

rights, social ostracism, to insidious attempts at causing harm through poisoning

or other covert means. Such acts not only violate fundamental rights guaranteed

under Articles 14, 15, 19, and 21 of the Constitution of India but also undermine

the vision of social reformers like Sree Basavanna and Dr|| B.R. Ambedkar, who

advocated inter-caste marriages as a means to eradicate caste hierarchy.

And Whereas Existing laws lack proactive mechanisms for protection of at-

risk couples, mandatory police intervention, fast-track adjudication, and

restoration of civil rights such as inheritance. In the absence of a dedicated

legislation, perpetrators often escape stringent punishment and victims or

survivors receive inadequate relief and rehabilitation.

32

And Whereas The Constitution of India enshrines the principle of fraternity

as essential to securing the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of

the nation and this principle demands the eradication of caste-based

discrimination and the promotion of social solidarity through the recognition and

protection of inter-caste marriages.

Therefore, it is considered necessary to make a legislation to,-

(i)

provide freedom of choice in marriage and prevention and prohibition

of caste based crimes;

(ii)

prevent violation of human rights;

(iii)

bring honour to inter-caste marriage;

(iv)

prevent enforced caste based discrimination in individual choices; and

(v)

constitute eva nammava eva nammava vedike to solemnise inter-caste

marriages.

Hence, the Bill.
