Therefore, we have advised them to part as friends, forgetting the past for ever. Both parties submitted before us that they will not interfere with the affairs of each other in future. Miss. Maya Sugandh submitted that the marriage, as alleged by the petitioner, has not taken effect and therefore it has no validity in the eye of law.
