Original Note:
Misleading interpretation presented in the headline exaggerates the ruling's scope by suggesting that it condones marital rape of wives above the age of 15. Supreme court back in 2017 already declared Sexual intercourse with wife below 18 Years amounts to Rape. https://www.livelaw.in/high-court/madhya-pradesh-high-court/madhya-pradesh-high-court-unnatural-sex-man-wife-not-rape-absence-woman-consent-immaterial-256819 https://www.scconline.com/blog/post/2017/10/11/sexual-intercourse-wife-18-years-age-rape-sc-holds/
