The Court, after interacting with the couple, observed that they were major and decided to live together without any pressure, fear or undue influence.
Considering the law laid down by the Supreme Court, the Court said that being in a live-in relationship is a fundamental right of two adult citizens who decide to live together by choice.
It added that family members, other relatives or any section of society has no legal right to disrupt or violate their physical liberty. The Court also said the lack of marital recognition does not give anyone the liberty to attack the dignity and physical safety of adult citizens.
Considering the fact that both the petitioners are major, educated and fully capable of understanding their well-being, the Court said there was no reason to deny their prayer for security.
The order was written in Hindi.
