Second husband uses wife’s divorce decree to annul marriage in Gujarat

A Rajkot woman's second marriage was declared null after her husband proved her first marriage was still valid at the time of her second marriage. He argued that their caste did not recognize customary divorce, which she used to end her first marriage. The Gujarat High Court overturned the family court's dismissal of his suit, deeming it legally unsound.
