Though the appellant and respondent were united in matrimony in the year 1983 to be one heart, one body and one soul for ever, lack of understanding and to some extent, misunderstandings crept in and they have been living separately for the last more than fifteen years. They have been blessed with two smart children, one studying for B.Sc. Nursing and the other for Engineering. When the appeal was posted before us, we directed the parties to be present before us. We also had the assistance of Dr.Sebastian Chembapally as Conciliator. Thanks to the efforts taken by the Conciliator and this Court and of course thanks to the co-operation extended by learned counsel appearing on both sides and above all thanks to the realisation of the parties that they need to regain mutual regard and respect, care and sharing at this age and stage, we are extremely happy to note that the parties have decided to live together and they M.F.A. NO.834/1996 -:2:- have been living together for the last more than two months. They submit before us that they have regained what has been lost and until death separates them they shall not part each other. In the above circumstances no orders are necessary in this appeal. The appeal is hence closed. (KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE) (HARUN-UL-RASHID, JUDGE) ahg.
