In a remarkable display of kindness, a woman has chosen not to seek alimony in her divorce proceedings, instead opting to return her mother-in-law's cherished gold bangles. The Supreme Court, comprising Justices JB Pardiwala and KV Viswanathan, praised the woman's extraordinary gesture, calling it a 'rare settlement' that sets a positive precedent. The court heard the divorce case via video conference, where the woman's counsel confirmed that she had waived her right to alimony and any other monetary compensation. The only item left to be returned was the gold bangles, which were gifted to her by her mother-in-law at the time of marriage. Justice Pardiwala commended the woman's kindness, saying, 'This is one of the rare cases where there is no exchange of anything. We appreciate. Forget the past and live a happy life.' The court subsequently dissolved the marriage between the couple under Article 142, quashing any further proceedings between the parties. The woman's selfless act has sent a powerful message about the importance of forgiveness and moving forward, even in the face of adversity. Her extraordinary gesture has been hailed by the Supreme Court as a shining example of kindness and reconciliation.
