Supreme Court Explains Section 69 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS)
The Supreme Court has clarified that s*x obtained through a genuine promise of marriage, where the promise was not deceitful from the beginning, does not automatically attract criminal liability under Section 69 BNS.

The ruling highlights the importance of examining the intention and genuineness of the promise at the time it was made, rather than treating every failed promise of marriage as an offence.

• Scope of Section 69 BNS clarified
• Focus on the intention behind the promise
• Genuine relationships protected from automatic criminal liability
• Helps prevent misuse of criminal law
