HC: Live-in physical relations are consensual; backing out of marriage isn't rape
The Chhattisgarh High Court has stated that in enduring live-in relationships, it is reasonable to assume that both parties engaged in physical intimacy willingly and with full understanding of the outcomes. The court ruled that a man deciding not to marry later does not automatically constitute rape in these situations. This observation was made as the court rejected a woman's appeal challenging the acquittal of a man.
