Notice of motion.
Upon advance notice, Mr. Ravi Partap Singh, DAG, Haryana, appears and accepts notice on behalf of respondents-State.
Considering the nature of litigation, no purpose would be served by serving notice to private respondents.
I have considered the facts narrated in the petition, according to which, both petitioners are major and they have performed marriage against wishes of family members/relatives of petitioner No.2, as a result, they are receiving threats from respondents No. 4 and 5. It is the duty of police to protect the life and liberty of petitioners. Therefore, respondent No.2 is directed to consider representation of petitioners dated 03.06.2026 (Annexure P-5) and protect life and liberty of petitioners from the hands of respondents No. 4 and 5, considering threat perception, with further direction to maintain their privacy and dignity.
Aforesaid protection order will have no bearing on legality and validity of marriage and it will not protect them in case there is any violation of law or pending legal proceedings.
Petition is accordingly disposed of.
Pending miscellaneous application(s), if any, also stands disposed of.
