Original Note:
Marital rape is not illegal in India. While it was briefly criminalized in 2022, a 2023 Supreme Court decision changed this and affirmed that marital rape was legal unless the wife was under 15 years of age. https://indiankanoon.org/doc/623254/ https://www.theindiaforum.in/amp/law/criminalising-marital-rape-india
