In a landmark ruling that may have far reaching as well as widespread ramifications, the Chennai (Madras) high court has ruled that any couple of legal age indulging in sexual coitus or then sex outside the boundaries of marriage, or then simple sexual gratification, the same scenario could/would be considered equivalent to that of a legally sanctioned marriage and the two partners who had willingly indulged in the sexual act would henceforth be regarded as "man and wife" or then "husband and wife" in the eyes of the law.........
"If any couple chooses to consummate their mutual sexual cravings, then that act becomes a total commitment with adherence to the consequences that may follow as a result of the action, except in the case of certain exceptional circumstances", Justice C.S. Karnan said in his landmark order or judgement..........
He also went on to add that age old formalities like the tying of a mangalsutra, signing a marriage certificate or then performing the wedding related ceremonies in the presence of members of both families and such notable others were nothing more than symbols of social sanction and were totally irrelevant if both partners were totally committed to each other........
Either or both parities could approach a family court for the consummation of their relationship and accord the same a legally wedded or married status by producing documentary proof a mutually sanctioned sexual relationship between both able and willing partners..........
The judge in all his infinite wisdom also said that the concerned couple could establish or formalise itself as a legally married couple in any or all concerned government records the very minute they obtain such a declaration.......
Justice Karnan made all the above mentioned observations and a few more in his very recent order while modifying or surreptitiously fine tuning an earlier judgement passed by a family court in a maintenance case dating back to April 2006.........
