The coverage reports that the Supreme Court said a relationship ending does not, by itself, make previously consensual sexual relations criminal. One headline frames the issue around intimacy being labelled rape; another highlights the right to end a relationship.

  • The Indian Express headline reports that the Supreme Court said physical intimacy cannot be branded as rape merely because a relationship soured.
  • NDTV reports that the bench said ending a relationship does not make previously consensual sexual relations criminal.
  • The two headlines frame the ruling differently: one focuses on whether intimacy can be labelled rape, while the other asks whether a man has a right to end a relationship.
