Ahluwalia, J., dismissed a revision filed in respect of waiving off of the mandatory 6 months period under Section 151 CPC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The present application was filed following the stated facts, in which it has been stated that applicant and respondent filed an application under Section 13-B of Hindu Marriage Act for grant of divorce by mutual consent. The case was adjourned for a period of 6 months with the advise to parties to reconsider their decision for obtaining a divorce.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An application under Section 151 CPC was filed after the above order of adjournment was passed for seeking a waiver of a mandatory period of 6 months. The stated application was rejected on the ground that it is not in accordance with the law.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Counsel for the applicant, Awadhesh Pratap Singh Sisodiya submitted that, \u201cProvision of 6 months under Section 13-B of Hindu Marriage Act is merely directory in nature and not mandatory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>\u201cFor waiving the period of 6 months as provided under Section 13-B (2) of Hindu Marriage Act, parties should point out that there is no possibility of cohabitation or there is no possibility of alternative rehabilitation, but the personal inconvenience of parties cannot be a ground.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The High Court stated that, an application under Section 151 CPC was filed on the singular ground that the respondent is a teacher and applicant a private doctor, therefore, they cannot come to the Court frequently. Further, the Court went on to state that, <strong>application for waiver of mandatory 6 months period under Section 13-B(2) of the Hindu Marriage Act is not tenable.\u201d <\/strong>Once parties have approached the Court seeking relief, they have to abide by the procedure provided under the statute.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Therefore, Trial Court did not commit any mistake by rejection the application under Section 151 CPC.
