Man living with a woman without divorcing his spouse can't be called live-in relationship: HC

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 14 November 2023
The Punjab and Haryana high court has held that a man living a "lustful and adulterous life" with a woman without divorcing his spouse cannot be called a "live-in-relationship" or "relationship" in the nature of marriage. ​​ The single judge bench of Justice Kuldeep Tiwari dismissed the petition of a couple from Punjab who had sought protection of their lives and liberty. The petitioners submitted that they have been in a "live-in relationship" which has caused grievance to the woman's family members who have threatened to kill them.
