On 6.10.2016, respondent No.2 left the matrimonial home due to some matrimonial dispute. All the disputes have since been settled between the parties vide settlement deed dated 23.10.2016. Pursuant to the settlement, respondent No.2 has started residing at the matrimonial home with petitioner No.1.
