Suneet Agnihotri vs Seema Srivastava on 24 January, 2026

In view of Indra Sarma (supra), the relationship between the parties cannot be treated as a legally valid marriage but relationship in the nature of marriage. However, the existence of a domestic relationship and shared household is prima facie established for the limited purpose of the DV Act as the Act is a beneficial legislation and courts may still grant limited reliefs to prevent injustice. The material on record prima facie establishes that the aggrieved person was subjected to economic abuse, emotional neglect, and abandonment, which squarely falls within the definition of domestic violence under Section 3 of the Act. Further, it is evident from the record that the aggrieved person resided with the respondent at the premises mentioned in the DIR report, which qualifies as a shared household under Section 2(s) of the Act.
