Through instant petition, petitioners have complained about the harassment caused by private respondents and also about inaction on the part of the police officials who, as per petitioner, have failed to provide legal protection to the petitioners. Learned counsel for petitioners stated that the petitioner NO.2 being sui juris has entered into valid contract of marriage with petitioner No.1 out of her own free will and without any pressure or coercion, which has antagonized the parents of petitioner No.2 who are causing harassment to the petitioners.
Notices were issued to respondents, pursuant to which respondents No.5 to 7 have filed their comments wherein it has been stated that no harassment whatsoever has been caused by the police officials nor the petitioners ever approached them seeking protection. The police officials present in Court further stated that no case is registered against the petitioners in their jurisdiction.
In view of such statement, learned counsel for the petitioners is satisfied and stated that he will not press the instant petition provided official respondents may be directed to provide legal protection to the petitioners.
To this submission, learned Asstt: A.G as well as official respondents present in court stated that all due legal protection will be provided to the petitioners as and when required.
In view of the hereinabove facts, the instant petition is disposed of. However official respondents are directed to provide legal protection to the petitioners as per law.
