    Case Summary: AO/185/2026 - Sonu Barnawal v. Sangeeta Devi The High Court of Uttarakhand dismissed Sonu Barnawal's appeal against the Family Court's order allowing Sangeeta Devi's application to amend her divorce petition. The amendment sought to add specific facts about cruelty (including a December 16, 2024 incident) to support her existing grounds of cruelty and desertion under Section 13(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act. The High Court upheld the trial court's decision, finding the amendment permissible because the new facts merely supported grounds already pleaded and would not change the case's nature, thereby avoiding multiplicity of proceedings.
