this regard the efforts made by the families, friends and well wishers on both the sides did not yield positive results. Hence, both the parties have decided that they can not live as husband and wife under one roof.
5. In view of the above the respondent has no objection for this Hon'ble Court to grant a decree of divorce by setting aside the Judgment and decree in M.C.No.4231/2014.
6. The appellant has filed a petition for maintenance in Crl. Misc. No.722/2018 and she shall withdraw the same.

by the appellant.
