Marriage is not necessarily the solution. There are men who abandon their wives just as they abandon their lovers or remarry after converting[0] and still abandon them. [0] http://www.indianexpress.com/news/chand-married-me-only-for-sex-fiza/439250/ The reality is Indian women lack social support, unlike developed nations which have appointed counseling agencies and have developed a social security and health care system, even if its not perfect. This root problem (of lack a proper support system, whether its pregnancy, sexual assault, marriage or any other aspect of a womans existence in India) has no co-relation with marriage and should not be inter-dependent or a pre-condition. -- .
