Bombay High Court<\/b>: In an appeal filed by husband challenging the judgment and decree of restitution of conjugal rights and dismissal of petition filed for dissolution of marriage alleging cruelty and desertion against the wife, a Division Bench of A.S. Chandurkar and Urmila Joshi Phalke, JJ. did not interfere with the impugned order on finding no reasonable ground of cruelty to obtain a decree of dissolution of marriage.<\/p>\n
The impugned order relates to a petition filed seeking dissolution of marriage on two grounds i.e., cruelty and desertion under Section 13(1)(ia)<\/a> and 13(1)(ib)<\/a> of Hindu Marriage Act, 1955<\/a>. The petition for dissolution of marriage is preferred mainly on the allegation that the wife had treated him with cruelty after marriage. As per the allegation of the appellant\/husband, the respondent\/wife who had completed her postgraduation in English and expressed her desire to do the job.<\/p>\n
The Court remarked except the ground enumerated under Section 13<\/a> of Hindu Marriage Act, 1955<\/a> the marriage solemnized under the Act cannot be dissolved on any other ground.<\/p>\n
