It can be referred to as the cohabitation of the two individuals under one roof with consent. Marriage is not a necessary element in a live-in relationship. The couples get a better opportunity for understanding each other as well as making a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadindia.law\/\">well-informed decision <\/a>for serious commitments such as marriage. You will gather fair knowledge concerning the legal status and legality of the live-in relatio<a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadindia.law\/talk-to-lawyer\">nship through a couple of case laws mentioned below.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong><em>Badri Prasad v Dy. Director of Consolidation 1978<\/em><\/strong>, the Supreme Court observed for the first time that live-in relationships are valid. It was held that a live-in relationship between the consenting adults of marriageable age and sound mind is legal under Indian law. The Supreme Court held that if a couple is living together for a long time then such a relationship will be presumed to be of a marriage. Thus, the 50-year long relationship of the live-in couple was legitimized by the Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must be aware of the fundamental rights and freedom in the Indian Constitution. By making a deeper analysis of the rights and freedom it can be implied that roots of live-in relationships can legally be traced within Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. The right and freedom of choice to either marry or have a live-in relationship cannot be alienated from the fundamental right given under the Article of th<a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadindia.law\/free-legal-advice\">e Indian Constitution.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignfull has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile has-background\" style=\"background-color:#cbcbcb\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-text-color\" style=\"color:#000000\"><strong>Need A Legal Advice<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-extra-small-font-size\">The internet is not a lawyer and neither are you.

Nari Niketan<\/em><\/strong>,<strong><em> 2001<\/em><\/strong> upheld the decision by affirming that a man and woman have all the rights to stay together with each other\u2019s consent and willingness without marrying each other. The Court, in this case, held that even if the live-in relationship is considered immoral by the society, it is not considered illegal or an offense under any law in India. Couples residing together in a live-in relationship are not criminal offenders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important cases concerning live-in relationships is the case of <strong><em>Indra Sharma v. V.K. Sharma, 2013.<\/em><\/strong> The matter of live-in relationships has been extensively discussed in this case and serves as a basic framework for matters on live-in relationships. <strong>Section 2(f) <\/strong>of the <strong>Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act 2005 <\/strong>was referred to by the Court while explaining the legal status of the live-in relationship, where \u2018domestic relationship\u2019 has been defined. Domestic relationship encompasses within it a relationship in the \u2018nature of marriage\u2019 which can be implied as live-in relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rights under Live-in Relationship<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">* Right to Maintenance under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As we know <strong>section 125<\/strong> of the <strong>Code of Criminal Procedure<\/strong>,<strong>1973<\/strong> deals with the right to maintenance, the same provisions now apply to the indigent party of the live-in relationship. A revision was made by an amendment in <strong>Section 125<\/strong> to alter the meaning of \u2018wife\u2019. The amendment was based on the recommendations of the <strong>Malimath Committee on Reforms of the Criminal Justice System. <\/strong>An observance was made based on the recommendations of the Committee Report that women living in a live-in relationship or have been deserted by their partner, acquire and enjoy the status of a wife legally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">* Right of Inheritance of Property<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The right to inherit property after the death of a woman\u2019s live-in partner was upheld by the Court in <strong><em>Dhanulal v. Ganeshram, 2015. <\/em><\/strong>The contention put forward by the family member of the individual was that even though the women had been cohabiting with their grandfather for 20 years shall not be entitled to inherit property as she was not married to their grandfather. As it has been mentioned earlier that the Court shall presume a man and woman to be married if they have been cohabiting for a long period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been a constant effort by the Indian judiciary in protecting the rights of individuals, such as in case of infringement of the rights of an individual or curtailing the freedom whether to marry or not. A live-in relationship has been always frowned upon and stigmatized in society. But the judicial pronouncement in various instances has proved the legality of live-in relationships on several occasions by upholding the rights of the partners. The court has also given legal status to the rights of women in a live-in relationship wherein they are entitled to inherit property as well as maintenance from their partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need protection from any third party or society, as a couple living in a live-in relationship you can reach out to us on Lead India where we offer the services of the best lawyers.
