HC on Divorce: Mother Fostering Animosity in Children Towards Their Father is Cruelty and Legitimate Reason for Divorce, Says Delhi High Court
Judges Suresh Kumar Kait and Neena Bansal Krishna stated that although marital disagreements might occur for a variety of reasons, this does not excuse including young children in the marital conflict.

It also constitutes a grave act of mental cruelty towards the father, which gives rise to the husband's right to divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act.
