HC clarifies Live-in relationship status

Allahabad Dec 1 (UNI) In an important judgement, the Allahabad High Court has held that if a married woman lives with an unmarried person and this fact is known to her live-in partner, this relationship is adulterous and such a relationship cannot be termed as live-in-relationship, hence they are not entitled to any protection under the law because this relationship would not be a relationship in the nature of marriage.
Dismissing the writ petition filed by Kusum and her live-in-partner, Justice Suneet Kumar observed, “It is admitted that the first petitioner is already married and this fact is also known to the second petitioner, as such, the relationship is adulterous for which the second petitioner can be prosecuted.
Under law relationship 'in the nature of marriage' is recognised and not a simpliciter live-in relationship as held by the Supreme Court in the case of Indra Sharma Vs. VKV Sharma”.
