Bidyut Prava Dixit & Anr. reported in (1999) 7 SCC 675, Tulsa & Ors. Vs. Durghatiya & Anr. reported in (2008) 4 SCC 540 and Santosh Vs. Naresh Paul reported in (1998) 8 SCC 447 came to the conclusion that there were no materials on record for the court even to be prima facie satisfied about the marital status of the parties.

16. It is in this regard, the decision in the case of TULSA AND OTHERS VS. DURGHATIYA AND OTHERS reported in (2008) SCC 520, is relied upon. Discussing the provisions of Sections 50 and 114 illustration (d) of Evidence Act, Hon'ble Apex Court has held that though the presumption available under illustration (d) to Section 114 is a rebuttal presumption regarding marriage, long cohabitation as husband and wife raises such presumption. It is further 18 held that law always favours legitimacy of marriage and burden lies on the person who seeks to deprive such relationship to prove that no marriage took place. In order to raise a presumption as per illustration (d) to Section 114 of Evidence Act, evidence of persons who had seen these people living as husband and wife becomes admissible in evidence and the same will have to be properly looked into.
