Sir, 

 

Live-in-relationship is fine, but that can create a ground of divorce for your wife as per law. 

 

Warm Regards

What about Adultery Offence ?

What will be future relations with children and relatives ?

What is Temporary and what is permanent ?

What happens if your wife also thinks in the same manner ?

Think of all this, before continuing extra marital affairs ?

Vijay Raj Mahajan (Advocate)     27 December 2017

Sexual relationship between a man with married woman of another man is criminal offence of adultery punishable under section 497 IPC so how that can be legal act by any means. The live in relationship between unmarried man and unmarried woman can be considered lawful to certain extend.

The Mirti Karar or friendship agreement you talk has to mention in clear term as to s*xual relationship between both of you, if you both are not indulging in s*xual relationship, than nothing wrong in such friendship but otherwise it is unlawful act, on the basis of which not only the marriages of both can get dissolved by the Family Court on the ground of adultery but even you can face criminal prosecution under section 497 IPC.

You are having illegal relation called adultry being married man and women which is punishable under IPC. Even if you execute Friendship Agreement your relationship will be called as adultry.

availability of free sword is no justification to chop head.

This forum gives free advise to those who have landed in trouble and one should not approach this forum as how to create trouble.

 

the so called "matri kakar" is unheard in law.

I endorse with experts points

Maitri karar has a law in Gujarat.

Dr. MPS RAMANI Ph.D.[Tech.] (Scientist/Engineer)     31 December 2017

Maitri Karar is a practice prevalent in Gujarat. The difference between maitri karar and live-in relationship is that the former has a written agreement, whereas the latter has no written agreement. Livein relationships have come up before Supreme Court, which has approved it. Probably no maitri karar case has come before the Supreme Court.

Dr. MPS RAMANI Ph.D.[Tech.] (Scientist/Engineer)     31 December 2017

Agreed, maitri karar is not law but a practice in Gujarat with a written contract.

Vijay Raj Mahajan (Advocate)     31 December 2017

Even if this practice of entering in a contract of friendship between married man and woman exists in Gujarat it's considered lawful there but if it's contrary to public policy or legal statue it will be considered null and void under section 23 of the Contract Act. Married man indulging in physical relationship with married woman of another man is against the provision u/s 497 IPC and cannot call this contract valid at all, even though it is in practice in Gujarat. Prostitute is unlawful practice and punishable offence but is being in practice since time immemorial that doesn't give it legal sanction and make it lawful practice.

I shall be highly enlightened to know the name of the Act/Rule if such law really exists which is considered valid despite existance of IPC and Contract Act.

Dr. MPS RAMANI Ph.D.[Tech.] (Scientist/Engineer)     31 December 2017

I have corrected later. It was not law. It was a practice. It was, and probably it is still a practice in Gujarat mostly between an unmarried man and an unmarried woman. Some married men and married women, not married to each other also may be entering into such relationships. The question of validity under law would arise only when it is challenged or when there is a dispute and one of the parties goes to court.
