      Solution

      S.R. Batra v. Taruna Batra. In this case, the Indian Supreme Court upheld the right of a woman to live separately from her husband if he was abusive towards her. The case involved a woman who had left her husband due to his abusive behavior, and the husband had filed a petition seeking restitution of conjugal rights. The court held that a wife had a right to live separately from her husband if he subjected her to cruelty or harassment, and that the husband's behavior in this case amounted to cruelty.
