1. This Family Court Appeal is filed by wife seeking to challenge the judgment and order dated 11th January 1999 passed by a Judge and order dated 11th January 1999 passed by a Judge, Family Court, Mumbai, on a petition moved by the Respondent-husband being M.J. Petition No. A-147 of 1995. That Petition prayed for a decree of nullity on the ground of non-consummation of marriage owing to the impotence of the Appellant under Section 12(1)(a) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (for short, "the said Act") and in the alternative for divorce on the ground of cruelty under Section 13(1)(ia) of the said Act. The Judge of the Family Court held that both these grounds were established and has granted a decree on both the prayers. Being aggrieved by that judgment and order, the present Appeal has been filed.
