Bombay High Court:\u00a0<\/strong>In an interesting case, Vibha Kankanwadi, J. allowed an appeal filed by the husband against the order of the first appellate court wherein trial court’s order granting divorce\u00a0to him against the respondent (wife) was reversed.<\/p>\n

Parties married to each-other at Solapur in 1999. They resided at Jalgaon since 2000. As per the husband, after about 4 years of peaceful marriage, the wife started visiting her parent’s home frequently and she used to live there for nearly 2-3 months. On enquiring, the husband came to know that she had married earlier and she also had 2 children from her earlier marriage. It was alleged that she started giving false complaints against the husband to the police and also in the \u00a0Government Hospital where he worked. She also gave a complaint to the then Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra. On this basis, the husband filed a complaint seeking a decree of divorce against his wife under Section 13(1)(i-a) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Holding that such conduct of the wife amounted to cruelty, trial court passed a decree of divorce in favour of the husband. However, this order was reversed by the first appellate court on an appeal filed by the wife.<\/p>\n

Pramod P. Dhonde, Advocate for the husband assailed the order of first appellate court contending\u00a0that he has proved the acts of cruelty on part of the wife. Per contra, D.S. Kudale, Advocate representing the wife supported the impugned order.<\/p>\n

The High Court perused the record and noted that the wife did not dispute the fact of 2 children being born to her prior to marriage, though she did not admit the fact of her\u00a0earlier marriage. On facts of the case, it was doubted that the husband had prior knowledge of such fact. Furthermore, it was found that she had lodged an FIR against the husband and his family under Section 498-A IPC which had been quashed by the Court. The Court found it proved that the wife was making false complaints and making frivolous allegations against the husband without proper evidence to support her case. It was observed,\u00a0” she had given complaint against the husband to the then Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra. That means, whatever allegations she was levelling, though it was relating to her domestic affair, she has given publicity to the same by making complaints to the hospital of the petitioner, i.e. the Government hospital, where the petitioner was serving at that time and also with the police.” <\/strong>In the Court’s opinion, the situation was one of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. Relying on various cases, the Court held that the impugned\u00a0order was unsustainable. Therefore, the appeal was allowed and trial court’s order granting divorce was restored. [X v.
