I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and have also perused the application dated 1.7.2020 (Annexure P-12), the gist of which pertains to allegation to the effect that respondent No.4-Rahul Attri had contracted another marriage despite the fact that the marriage of petitioner and Rahul PANKAJ KAKKAR 2020.11.27 18:47 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
