Babu Ram vs Musammat Kokla on 5 December, 1923

25. Mookerjee J., after reviewing the English law on the point, came to the conclusion, following the tendency of judicial decisions in England, that while each element separately such as desertion, or a second marriage, or a mistress, might not suffice, their cumulative effect might he such as to disentitle the husband to any relief.
