Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order reversing the findings of the Trial Court and Revisional Court regarding the complaint under Sections 498-A and 406 IPC was a non-speaking order, lacking necessary reasoning. The Court emphasized that a non-reasoned order is not valid in law, leading to the conclusion that the High Court's judgment must be set aside. Consequently, the matter was remanded to the High Court for fresh disposal with an opportunity for both parties to be heard.
