Even otherwise, it is evident from the order dated 17.11.2010 CRM No. M 22766 of 2010 2 passed by the Lok Adalat that the petitioner had duly taken a house on rent at Jalandhar to live together with his wife/complainant.

The question as to whether the said articles are in the possession of the petitioner or not is a matter of evidence. In view of above, the order dated 01.10.2010 is made absolute.
