(File Photo: IANS)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A division bench of the Delhi High Court consisting of Justice Suresh Kumar Kait and Justice Neena Bansal Krishna was hearing an appeal challenging a family court order rejecting husband\u2019s plea for divorce. The husband was seeking divorce petition on the grounds that his wife has subjected him to cruelty and has deserted him.<\/p>\n<p>Although the wife had challenged the divorce petition in the Family Court but before the High Court she said that she had no intention to reunite with her husband and that she had no objection to the divorce being granted.<\/p>\n<p>The High Court while perusing the family court order and the wife\u2019s stand before it held opined that the wife&#8217;s insistence to live separately from the other family members was\u00a0<em>whimsical<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>had no justifiable reason<\/em>. The Court further observed that such insistence can only be termed as an act of cruelty. Further, the High Court also relied on the Hon\u2019ble Supreme Court\u2019s judgment in <a href=\"https:\/\/indiankanoon.org\/doc\/130314186\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><strong>Narendra v. K.Meena<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, to make an observation regarding common practice of Hindu\u2019s after marriage. The Court observed \u2013<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>In India, generally people do not subscribe to the western thought, where upon getting married or attaining majority; the son gets separated from the family. In normal circumstances, the wife is expected to be a part of the family of the husband after her marriage. She becomes integral to and forms part of the family and husband and normally without any justifiable strong reason, she should never insist that her husband should get separated from the family and live with her separately,\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Relying on all the above grounds the ourt dissolved the marriage and allowed the husband\u2019s appeal. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>X v.
