The Ramayana, reinterpreted by the renowned criminal lawyer Ram Jethmalani, in The Hindu:
“Ram was a bad husband. I don’t like him at all. Just because some fisherman said something, he sent that poor woman [Sita] to exile.
“Lakshman was even worse.
“When Sita was abducted, Ram asked him to go and find her as she was abducted during his watch. Lakshman simply excused himself saying she was his sister-in-law and he never looked at her face, so he wouldn’t be able to identify her.”
