Vijaykumar Ramchandra Bhate vs Neela Vijaykumar Bhate on 4 October, 2000
In the case of Vijaykumar Ramchandra Bhate vs. Neela Vijaykumar
Bhate, referred to earlier, the Supreme Court held that the act of levelling
disgusting accusations of unchastity and indecent familiarity with a person
outside the wedlock and allegations of extramarital relationship constituted grave
assault on the character, honour, reputation, status as well as the health of
other spouse. Such aspersions of perfidiousness attributed to the other spouse
viewed in the context of an educated Indian person and justified by the Indian
conditions and standards, would amount to a worst form of insult and cruelty
which is sufficient by itself to substantiate cruelty in law, warranting the claim of
a party being granted divorce.
