1. The criminal writ petition has been preferred by the
petitioners under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking
direction for being provided with adequate security and protection.
2. The petitioners both being major persons, claim to be in a

police authorities with a prayer to be provided with adequate
protection but no heed has been paid to the request so far.
3. The documents pertaining to the age of the petitioners and
live-in-relationship agreement have been filed on record. Thus,
taking cue from the judgment rendered by the Hon'ble Supreme
Court in the case of Lata Singh Vs. State of U.P. reported in
AIR 2006 SC 2522, the prayer made by the petitioners for
directing the Superintendent of Police/Commissioner of Police
concerned to provide protection to the petitioners deserves to be
accepted.
4. The Superintendent of Police/Commissioner of Police
concerned shall have the matter enquired into and if so required,
appropriate protection shall be provided to the petitioners as and
when warranted. The Superintendent of Police/Commissioner of
Police concerned shall ensure that no harm is caused to the
petitioners, who are in a live in relationship.
5. The criminal writ petition is accordingly disposed of.
