Court No. - 2
Case :- WRIT - C No. - 35264 of 2015 Petitioner :- Smt. Nikita Yadav And Another Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Raj Singh Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.,D.R.Choudhary,M.L.Jain
Hon'ble Dr. Kaushal Jayendra Thaker,J.
Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned Standing Counsel for the State.
It is stated that both petitioners are major and they have solemnized their marriage out of their own sweet and free will. It is next submitted that they are living together as husband and wife since 2015. However, the order dated 1.7.2015 has not been complied with.
This Court does not go into the veracity that the former husband of petitioner No.1 has any right or not, that is the question to be decided in appropriate forum.
Be that as it may, it appears that petition has out-lived its utility and purpose as the petitioners have already been granted protection way back.
However, it is provided that in case any interference with the marital life and liberty of the petitioners is made or any threat is extended to them, they shall be at liberty to approach the concerned Superintendent of Police/Senior Superintendent of Police, who shall examine petitioners' grievance and take all steps, as may be warranted in law, to ensure that life and liberty of the petitioners is not interfered with by private respondents, keeping in view the observations made by the Apex Court in Lata Singh vs. State of U.P., AIR 2006 SC 2522.
With these observations, this petition is disposed of.
This Court is grateful to Shri Raj Singh, learned counsel for the petitioners, for remaining present.
Order Date :- 27.7.2018 LN Tripathi
