Judgment text excerpt
The appellant sought annulment of marriage under Section 12 of the Hindu Marriage Act. The trial court rejected the application, and this decision was subsequently upheld by a Single Judge and a Division Bench of the Punjab & Haryana High Court. The matter reached the Supreme Court via Special Leave Petitions challenging the lower courts' refusal to grant the annulment.
