MATRIMONIAL LAW IN INDIA - VOLUME I is the foundational volume of this comprehensive commentary on matrimonial law. It introduces the legal framework governing matrimonial disputes in India by examining the fundamental principles of marriage, the statutory scheme of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, the jurisdiction and powers of Family Courts, procedural requirements, pleadings, evidence, burden and standard of proof, interim reliefs, electronic evidence, mediation, execution of decrees, and appellate remedies. The Volume combines statutory analysis with leading judicial precedents, practical litigation strategies, drafting guidance, and procedural checklists, making it an indispensable resource for judges, advocates, academicians, law students and litigants. Designed to bridge legal theory with courtroom practice, Volume I lays the essential foundation upon which the subsequent volumes analyse each matrimonial remedy and statutory ground in greater depth.
