1. The petitioners have invoked the extraordinary writ jurisdiction of this
Court under article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking protection
of their life and personal liberty. It is averred that petitioner No.1 and
petitioner No.2 are major adults who have solemnized their marriage of
their own free will and volition. However, the said matrimonial alliance
has not found favour with their respective family members, who are
allegedly extending threats to the petitioners and attempting to interfere
with their peaceful married life.
2. In support of their assertion that the marriage has been solemnized with
their free and consent, the petitioners have placed on record a copy of
the Nikah Nama dated 27.06.2026. The petitioner No. 1 has also
produced her Secondary School Examination Certificate issued by the
J&K State Board of School Education, which establishes her date of
birth and confirms that she had attained the age of majority at the time
of solemnization of the marriage. Petitioner No. 2 is also stated to be a
major.
