'Wife's career choice not cruelty or desertion': SC slams 'feudal' mindset of lower courts
The Supreme Court has set aside lower courts' regressive findings, stating a qualified woman's pursuit of her profession and child's welfare cannot be deemed cruelty or desertion. The apex court emphasised that marriage doesn't erase a woman's individuality or subordinate her identity, upholding divorce solely on irretrievable breakdown.
