Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court approved a mutual consent divorce between the parties under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, and quashed all criminal cases filed by either party. The Court mandated that the husband and his family members publicly acknowledge their wrongs and pay Rs.40,00,000 to the wife as part of the settlement. The Court emphasized that failure to comply with the terms would allow the wife to revive her complaints, thereby ensuring adherence to the settlement terms.
