-.- JAISHREE THAKUR J. (ORAL) Learned counsel appearing for petitioners would submit that both the petitioners are major. Petitioner No.1 is living separately from her husband for the last six years and her divorce case is pending before the lower Court whereas petitioner No.2 is also facing ex parte divorce case and is living separately from his wife for the last three years.
