Patna High Court CR. MISC. No.42940 of 2025(4) dt.15-09-2025 2/3 case. There is no material to show that the petitioner demanded any dowry and this allegation is not believable.

Marriage was solemnized in the year 2016 and after lapse of 7 years, no offence under Section 80(2) of BNS will be made out against the petitioner.
