PARAMJEET Vs. BHIM SINGH

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HAVING been unsuccessful in seeking a decree of divorce by dissolution of her marriage with respondent -husband Bhim Singh (hereinafter mentioned as the husband), the appellant -wife Smt. Paramjeet (hereinafter mentioned as the wife) has sought reversal of the judgment dated 7.9.2012 passed by the District Judge, Jind [whereby her petition under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (hereinafter referred to as the Act)] had been dismissed.

(2.) MARRIAGE between the parties had been solemnised on 7.5.2006 at village Pai, District Kaithal according to Hindu rites and ceremonies. The parties had lived together in the matrimonial home at village Fatehpur, District Kaithal. The marriage was consummated; a female child named Ms. Nisha was born out of this wedlock on 14.7.2007. Allegations of cruelty, beating and maltreatment at the hands of the husband had been made by the wife, elaborating, that though sufficient dowry had been given by her father and maternal uncle i.e. by spending more than Rs.4 lacs in the marriage, but even then dissatisfied as he was, the husband had been raising demand of a motorcycle as also of a refrigerator. It is claimed that inability to fulfil such demand had resulted in her harassment and maltreatment without any rhyme or reason.

(3.) TELLING her tale of woes, it has further been pleaded in the petition that a daughter was born to her in her parental house, where entire expenditure was borne by her father as she had been kicked out of the matrimonial home by the husband. It has further been explained that neither the husband nor his family members ever came to take her back and when her father took her to the matrimonial home and requested the husband and his family members to keep her with love and care, there was no change in their behaviour.
