Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decisions of the lower courts, confirming that the appellant's claims of impotence and invincible repugnance to consummation under Section 12 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 were not substantiated. The Court emphasized that it does not typically interfere with factual findings unless there is a clear misapprehension of evidence, which was not the case here. Consequently, the appeal for annulment of marriage was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' conclusions that the marriage could potentially be consummated in the future.
