¶1This order will dispose of a bunch of petitions mentioned above, as similar issue, providing protection to the live-in couples with one partner being married, had arisen out in the same.
¶2Prayer in the present bunch of petitions is for grant of protection to the couples living in live-in-relationship with one partner being married, as enshrined under Article 21 of the Constitution of India. The issue involved in the present petitions has been adjudicated by Hon'ble the Division Bench of this Court in case of Yash Pal and another vs. State of Haryana and others, in CRWP-4660-2021, decided on 09.09.2024.
¶3Leaned counsel representing the petitioners have submitted before this Court that the issue involved in the present criminal writ petitions, is squarely covered by the ratio of judgment passed in Yash Pal's case (supra). It is thus submitted that in view of the same, the present petitions are liable to be disposed of.
¶4Learned counsel for the State of Punjab, Haryana and UT, Chandigarh as well as counsel for the private respondents have no objection, if the present petitions be disposed of in view of the law laid down by Hon'ble Division Bench of this Court in Yash Pal's case (supra).
¶5As Hon'ble Division Bench of this Court has already adjudicated the issue involved in the present cases and both the sides have also prayed that the present cases be disposed of in view of the law laid down, the present petitions are disposed of in view of the detailed order passed by Hon'ble Division Bench in Yash Pal's case (supra).
