Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined a marriage dissolution case where the lower courts had differing views on desertion. The Court analyzed the conduct of both parties, especially the husband's knowledge of the wife's employment and her responsibilities. It upheld the decision of the Gauhati High Court, which set aside the marriage dissolution decree, emphasizing the importance of mutual understanding and conduct in matrimonial disputes. The judgment underscores the need for clear evidence of desertion and ill-treatment for dissolving a marriage.
