Sharma for the petitioner, and Mr. Sanjay Kumar No.I, learned Government Pleader No.14 for respondent nos. 1 and 2. In spite of valid service of notices on respondent nos. 3 and 4, they have not entered appearance. The petitioner claims to be married to respondent no.4, who lived together and the marriage has been consummated. It is further stated in the writ petition that respondent no.3, father of respondent no.4, did not approve of the marriage and, therefore, kept her in illegal confinement, as a result of which she is unable to join the petitioner in her matrimonial home in spite of her desire. It 2 is, therefore, prayed that respondent no.3 may be directed to release respondent no.4 to join the petitioner. In the facts and circumstances of the case, we would not like to proceed further in this matter. It goes without saying that it will be open to the petitioner to approach the appropriate forum for the reliefs prayed for herein. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Vinay/ ( S. K.
