The High Court of Madhya Pradesh has set aside orders passed by the trial court and Family Court in a dispute involving a Muslim husband’s plea seeking declaration of divorce through triple talaq.

The dispute arose from a suit filed by husband Rizwan Ali against his wife Smt. Rubina Kavi. In the suit, the husband claimed that due to alleged mental cruelty by the wife, he had pronounced triple talaq on January 14, 2015 in the presence of two witnesses and later executed a written talaqnama.

The Supreme Court of India has clarified that an arbitration clause contained in an earlier redevelopment agreement can become binding in later agreements if those agreements clearly adopt all terms of the original contract.

The dispute arose after Hirani Developers entered into a redevelopment agreement with Nehru Nagar Samruddhi Co-operative Housing Society in 2011 for redevelopment of a dilapidated property. The agreement included an arbitration clause under Clause 36 for resolving disputes through a sole arbitrator.
