Orders
The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir allowed the petition filed by two adult petitioners who solemnized marriage against their families' wishes, seeking protection from potential police arrest. The court, applying precedents from Lata Singh v. State of U.P. and Shakti Vahini v. Union of India, directed official respondents not to interfere with the petitioners' marital life, subject to the condition that one petitioner deposited Rs. 5 lakhs as security in a fixed deposit for one year. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
