Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court affirming the divorce decree granted by the Family Court based on desertion. The case involved facts where the appellant-wife and respondent-husband had marital differences, with the wife residing abroad for employment reasons. The Court examined whether desertion was established under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, and found sufficient grounds for dissolution. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the legal standards for desertion and divorce.
