The High Court(HC) of Punjab & Haryana grants divorce to a physically challenged man. As per the reports, the man is alive with 50 percent hearing loss & using a hearing aid. He had alleged that he had dropped weight from 74kg to 53kg because of the mental pressure of his wife.
Complaints filed by the woman against her husband & his family were all fake
