Kajal and Prateek Gupta, the petitioners before this Court, claim themselves to be major. It has been pleaded that they have married against the wishes of the respondents No.4 to 7 and seek protection to their life and liberty. They apprehend danger from the respondents No.4 to 7. They have placed on record marriage certificate (Annexure P3) evidencing their marriage. The petitioners have submitted a representation dated 16.06.2025 (Annexure P4) to the respondent No.2. 2.

Without entering upon an exercise to evaluate the evidentiary value of the documents placed on the file, this Court disposes of the writ petition with directions to the respondent No.2 to decide the representation of the petitioners (Annexure P4) within a period of one month and grant them protection, if any threat to their life and liberty is perceived.
