O R D E R
The petitioners being adults have married each other of their free volition. They were granted protection by this Court in view of their apprehension of threat to their life, limb and liberty from respondents No. 2 and 3 i.e. the father and brother of petitioner No.1 respectively.
The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the parents of petitioner No.1 have now reconciled to her matrimony with petitioner No.2. They are present in the Court. Since they do not have a counsel, Ms. Indu Kaul, Advocate present in the Court is appointed as their counsel for the day. She states upon instructions that parents, indeed, cannot in any way pose any form of threat to their own daughter; they accepted the marriage and their presence in the Court is testimony of the fact that they would want their daughter to be happy and she has their blessings.
The learned counsel for the petitioners states that in view of the above, she would not press the petition any further.
Accordingly, the petition is disposed-off in the above terms.
