As per case facts, the petitioner-wife filed a Transfer Petition seeking dissolution of marriage under Article 142 of the Constitution, citing irretrievable breakdown after living separately for over a decade ... following 65 days of cohabitation. Both parties were involved in numerous litigations, and mediation attempts failed. The respondent-husband opposed the divorce and accused the petitioner of false cases and perjury. The question arose whether the Supreme Court could grant divorce under Article 142 in cases of irretrievable breakdown, even if one spouse objected. Finally, the Supreme Court invoked Article 142, dissolving the marriage due to irretrievable breakdown and noting the absence of any alimony claim by the wife. Most other pending matrimonial cases were disposed of, with specific perjury applications allowed to continue.
