Supreme Court:<\/span> In a transfer petition concerning divorce, the division bench of Pamidighantam Sri Narasimha and Aravind Kumar, JJ. by invoking its power under Article 142<\/a> of the Constitution of India<\/a>, granted divorce to the parties.<\/p>\n

The Court noted that the dispute between the parties has been amicably settled. Further, after perusing the Settlement Agreement dated 19-02-2024, the Court viewed that this is a fit case to exercise power under Article 142<\/a> of the Constitution of India<\/a> to dissolve the marriage between the parties. Thus, the Court while dissolving the marriage solemnized between the parties by a decree of divorce under Section 13-B<\/a> of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955<\/a>; passed the following order:<\/p>\n

(1) The cases pending between the parties has to be withdrawn by them.<\/p>\n

(2) The amount of Rs. 12 lakhs towards full and final settlement has to be paid to the wife by the husband.<\/p>\n

(3) The decree of divorce has to be drawn incorporating all the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement within a period of six weeks from the date of this order.<\/p>\n
