{PS.: A year back a typical Jurisdiction case was filed in D HC where the then Jstc Dhingra allowed a Russian Women (the then wife to a Hindu husband who was staying in a Guest House opp. Delhi Railway Station) to file Comp0laint case under Domestic Violence Act case against her recently married Hindu husband while their marriage was done under Special Marriage Act, I thought may be some warm-ups about Foreigners as to be brides to Hindu husbands may be given as un-solicited hint to you since you are a Public Servant!}
