Daughter-in-law doesn’t vest an absolute right to live in a shared household: Delhi High Court

Daughter-in-law had filed a petition against an order passed by the divisional commissioner. Though the order of the divisional commissioner had stayed her eviction from the shared property, but she had to stay in the shared property with her in-laws. The District Magistrate had passed the eviction order.

High Court stated that the daughter-in-law doesn’t have an impregnable right in a shared house. She can’t exclude her in-laws from that property. The court had ruled that she and her son can live in a room and the in-laws can take another room. And her son can use the third room to study with due regard to the right of the in-laws to use the same room. The court further directed the parties to leave peacefully in the interest of all.
