In a petition filed by an adult couple where one of has not attained majority for marriage. It has been submitted by them that their fundamental right of “protection of life and liberty” has been violated. Hence, its restoration has been invoked under article 226 of the Indian Constitution.
The petitioners submit that they have known each other for the last year and wish to marry each other with Petitioner no.1 not having attained the majority of marriageable age. But the parents of petitioner no. 2 are against this and have beaten her up several times, locked her up in her room, and have threatened her to get her killed. Further, several fights have been taken place between the families. After this, Petitioner no. 2 left her parents’ home and started living with Petitioner no.1 in a live-in relationship. This relationship not being acceptable to the parents, they have warned the Petitioners to bear harsh consequences.
The court in its observations held that both the Petitioners are adults and have the right to live their life on their terms and their parents can’t compel them to do it their way. Even if they have not attained the marriageable age still the fact that remains is that both of them are majors and can’t have their parents dictating their life for them. The court further went ahead and said that as per article 21 of the Indian Constitution, the right to life and liberty has been given to every individual and the choice of the partner for one is an important aspect of the right to life. For this case, the court relied on the case of Shafin Jahan vs. Asokan K.M., (2018) 16 SCC 368, where it was held by the Supreme Court that every person has his right to life and liberty and that also covers the right to choose a partner for oneself.
Society hence has no role to play in deciding the role of partners for people. Moreover, article 21 guarantees the right to life and liberty to everyone. It has been stated there that no one can be deprived of his right to life and liberty except for the procedure established by law. Only because one of the petitioners have not attained the age of majority to marry, they cannot be deprived to exercise their right to life.

The High Court of Delhi held that the opinion of private doctors can’t be accepted for declaring the fitness of police force aspirants. The petitioner had filed a writ petition before the court as she was declared unfit by the military doctors. The petitioner, also an aspirant of constable post in the CAPF had applied for the same. After clearing all the tests, she was called for a medical examination and was declared unfit for the post as she was “Carrying Angle > 20° Both Side”. After getting her medical unfitness certificate, she was given a chance to file an appeal against the decision regarding her medical fitness. With that, she also had to get a medical fitness certificate from a government hospital’s medical practitioner. The petitioner got herself examined at the Bowring and Lady Curzon Hospital, Government of Karnataka. Where she was declared medically fit and it was also observed that “there is a bit Cubitus Valgus carrying angle < 20° (18°)”. After this, the petitioner appeared again before the Review Medical Board and claimed that she was wrongfully declared unfit as there was no medical practitioner before the board. For further assurance, she appeared before Aster CMI Hospital and Columbia Asia Hospital where she was declared fit. The petitioner further argued that as per the Uniform Guidelines for Medical Examination Test of Combined Recruitment of CT/GD in CAPFs/Ars, it has been established that at least one medical specialist had to be included in the board.
The court to arrive at the judgment relied on the cases of Priti Yadav Vs. Union of India, Tiwari Vs. Union of India, Nishant Kumar Vs. Union of India, and Sharvan Kumar Rai Vs. Union of India. It has thus been held before that when the doctors and medical practitioners of force, who know the duties and their demands of the officers and personnel who are required to work in some specific terrain and some geographical locations have an opinion for the medical fitness of the candidates, the opinion of private medical practitioners cannot be accepted. The court further declared that such a minor question of employment also carries with it a possibility to turn into a serious health blow and hence should be taken care of. Moreover, both the mental as well as mental health also gets impacted due to the job profile and its conditions. Also, soft postings might create dissatisfaction among personnel as some of them might prefer soft postings while some of them might be faced with harsher conditions and postings.
