Manisha appealed against the decree but a division bench of the High Court gave a decree of divorce as it found that the marriage “had irretrievably broken down”. It also directed Rs 10 lakh to be paid as maintenance amount by Kumar to her. Manisha then approached the apex court against the High Court order.
