The Chhattisgarh High Court upheld a family court’s decision allowing a husband to use his wife’s mobile call recordings and WhatsApp messages as evidence in a divorce case. The court stated that the right to privacy is not absolute.
The Chhattisgarh High Court intervened after a woman was forced to give birth on the floor of a health center due to the absence of medical staff. The court called it a “very sorry state of affairs” and demanded a personal affidavit from the Health Department Secretary. The court also ordered the immediate suspension of the involved medical officer and an inquiry into the incident.
