Sir I think ,Unless doctore who issued the certificate is not examined he can not be declared mental. Application should be filed for his examination. if the application is rejected  revision can be filed aginst the order.

It is the duty of the opponant to prove his case,mere filing of documents i.e. medical certificates are not sufficient.One more question is arise that if the person is mental  ill how he can engage a lawyer & sign the pursis. arvind sir is right examine the doctor & find out the truth. If  the opponant really  mental ill,& both are belongsto hindu community she can claim maintanance from her father in law

if the matrimonial house is in the name of the father in law can be stayed and better to call the doctor issued the certificate to examine . definately win the case

Performing marriage by alleged mental person, his giving birth to 4 children, his taking part in the court proceedings, his appointment to lawyer, his taking part in the general discussion etc. definitely create much doubt what his counsel is claiming.

 

It shall be better if an application is moved to refer such person before duly constituted medical board which shall in depth perform all necessary tests and shall make its final opinion.
