It is informed that pursuant to the settlement demand draft bearing No.022554 dated 14.12.2016 for the sum of `1,50,000/- of Central Bank of India has been handed over to the complainant today in the court. Divorce by mutual consent has been granted. (3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties.
