Whether Alimony Can be Granted If Marriage is Declared Void? Supreme Court To Decide

The Supreme Court is set to review whether alimony can be awarded when a marriage is declared void under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Conflicting judgments have led to this matter being referred to a larger bench by a Division Bench of Justices Vikram Nath and PB Varale. The issue will be resolved by a three-judge Bench of the Supreme Court.
