In Chandra v. Suresh AIR 1971 Delhi 208, the Court granted a decree of judicial separation, emphasizing that cohabitation is not mandatory if the marriage has broken down and mutual respect has eroded. Judicial separation is provided under Section 10 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, and allows spouses to live apart without dissolving the marriage.
