    "content": "should not over-legislate and say that taking somebody to court will sustain a marriage. If anything, when you take your spouse to court, it means that you have reached irreconcilable differences, which you cannot handle. In our marriages, we have dispute resolution mechanisms which we normally follow and they are working. Why should we bring courts in this other institution? Our Chief Justice is on record saying that we should not be taking all matters to court because our courts are already overburdened. They have so much to deal with. He said that we can even seek the services of witchdoctors. I think we should not take that route. I saw some beautiful ladies three weeks ago demonstrating outside Parliament gate and most of them happen to come from my constituency. They had brought a petition on domestic violence. Most of them are not even married and when we were discussing with them casually, I asked what they meant by domestic violence. They were candid enough to say that they came here because they were paid to come and do whatever they wanted to do."
