Accordingly, today the 3rd respondent is brought before us by respondents 4 and 5. The petitioner is also present.
(3.)

His daughter discontinued her studies at Plus Two level only because of of this love affair. The petitioner clandestinely supplied the 3rd respondent with a mobile phone. User of the phone resulted in disruption of her studies. The petitioner has studied only upto 7th Standard. He and his wife would like to give the 3rd respondent in marriage to an educated person.
