Q: Elaborate the citation of Meena Dinesh Parmar Vs Dinesh H. Parmar, February 4, 2005 ?

Ans: During a case in Mumbai High Court of Meena Dinesh Parmar Vs Dinesh H. Parmar Wife on 04-02-2005, it was held by Mumbai High Court that if the wife deserted her husband, no maintenance. The High court in its decision held that they find that she had contended that she was harassed and ill-treated by her husband and his family members. Her allegations in this regard were vague. There was no date mentioned in respect of any particular incident of cruelty. So ,the particulars of cruelty were also not given. She had alleged that she had been never provided with any medical aid during her pregnancy period. In addition to her only statement, there is nothing on record to substantiate her submission. It is noted that she had gone to her parents place for delivery however, within two days she left for her uncle's place at Pune. In the police enquiry her own father had given a statement that his agreement and permission was not taken by her for leaving her husband's house. There is no justification in the allegations of the wife for staying at Pune with her maternal uncle, even though her husband had bought a separate place for their conspicuous residence. Such an act on her side of staying at Pune along with her newly born son does amount to both cruelty as well as desertion and no fault can be found in this decision.

Q: Elaborate the citation of S. Rehana Sulthana @ Rehana Begum V/s B Mohammad Ghouse & Anr. on 28 March 2016 ?

Ans: In a decision of Andhra High Court in a case S. Rehana Sulthana @ Rehana Begum V/s B Mohammad Ghouse & Anr. on 28 March 2016, it was held that no maintenance relief to wife who left home without justifiable reasons. The High court found that in the cross examination the wife stated that she executed an agreement in the presence of witnesses with an undertaking that she will not compel the respondent for setting up separate family. If really the wife did not compel the husband persistently to set up separate family, what made her to do her signature on the  agreement? The Courts cannot ignore the human conduct while appreciating the rival submissions of the couple to the proproceedings, more particularly in family matters, wherein the possibility of presenting distorted facts by the couple to the proceedings so that they can gain sympathy of the court .If really the wife had suffered in the hands of the husband and his family members, certainly the wife might have avai...

Q: Explain the citation of Delhi District Court on Smt. Krishna Dhawan vs State ( Govt. Of Nct Of Delhi) on 22 November, 2010 ?

Ans: Delhi District Court on Smt. Krishna Dhawan vs State ( Govt. Of Nct Of Delhi) on 22 November, 2010 - In the present case, the applicant has failed to prove on record any justifiable ground for leaving the company of her husband respondent except that she stated that she has been ill illtreated for the last 20 to 23 years but in her cross examination she herself has admitted that there was no demand of dowry by the respondent at the time of marriage or after the marriage.

Q: Discuss the case law of Chander Prakash Bodhraj v Shila Rani Chander Prakash, AIR 1968 Delhi 174 for maintenance of wife?

Ans: According to Chander Prakash Bodhraj v Shila Rani Chander Prakash, AIR 1968 Delhi 174, an able-bodied husband must be presumed to be capable of earning sufficient money to maintain his wife and children, and cannot contend that he is not in a position to earn sufficiently to maintain his family. The onus is on the husband to establish with necessary material that there are sufficient grounds to show that he is unable to maintain the family, and discharge his legal obligations for reasons beyond his control. If the husband does not disclose the exact amount of his income, an adverse inference may be drawn by the Court. Conclusion: So, if the husband has liabilities like loans and other legal obligations, he will not be entitled to provide maintenance to earning wife.  Under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure it was obligatory on the part of the Petitioner-wife to allege and prove that she was unable to maintain herself. According to Shri Rege the expression used in t...
