The Court said that according to the complaint, the man took 3 months to get the consent of the woman’s parents for the marriage. The consent of the woman was not based on any misunderstanding or fear in the physical relationship that developed between the two during this period. Both of them were engaged. The engagement was attended by all the members of the family. This shows that the intention of the petitioners to marry the accused was real. It cannot be claimed that the petitioner had no intention of marrying the accused just because of the breakup.
