The Kerala high court upheld a family court's divorce decree for a man. The court found the wife's willingness to reconcile insufficient to deny divorce. Repeated reconciliation attempts had failed, and the marriage had broken down. The husband had alleged cruelty and maladjusted behavior from his wife.
