After being brought up and educated by his mother, the son has a moral and legal obligation to take care and maintain her when she becomes old and has no other source of income to maintain her." The judgment further observes: "It is not a common practice, desirable and acceptable norm for a son to leave his old mother when there is no one else to take care of her in order to settle with his wife, particularly when he is the only earning member in the family. The judges said that, in this case, they do not find any 'justifiable reasons' shown by the wife for living separated from mother in law. The persistent efforts of the respondent-wife to compel the appellant to get separated from his mother would be torturous for the husband, and in our opinion this act of respondent certainly constitutes an act of cruelty." In our opinion, normally, no husband would tolerate this nor would any son like to be separated from his old mother, who is dependent upon her son. "In normal circumstances, the wife is expected to be with the family of the husband after marriage because she becomes an integral a part of the family of the husband, and without any justifiable reason, she may not insist that her husband stays separately from her old mother, and to live with his wife in a separate and rented accommodation. The judgment quotes extensively from a 2016 judgment of the Supreme Court in Narendra vs. Khulbe allowed the appeal of a husband who had sought divorce on the ground of cruelty by wife.
