Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:69249 Court No. - 74 Case :- WRIT - C No. - 11040 of 2025 Petitioner :- Anshu Devi And Another Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 3 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Chandra Prakash Pandey Counsel for Respondent :- Pradeep Kumar Shukla,C.S.C. Hon'ble Saurabh Srivastava,J. 1. Heard Smt. Renu Pandey holding brief of Sri Chandra Prakash Pandey, learned counsel for petitioners and Sri Pradeep Kumar Shukla, learned counsel for respondent no. 4 and learned Chief Standing Counsel for State. 2. By way of the present writ petition, a direction in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents not to interfere in peaceful marital life of petitioners, has been sought. 3. Upon perusal of the pleadings, this Court does not find any serious threat perception to the petitioners and, therefore, there is no requirement of passing any order for providing police protection to them. 4. There is no material or reason for this Court to conclude that the petitioners' life and liberty are at peril. There is not even an iota of evidence to evince that private respondents (relatives of either of the petitioners) are likely to cause physical or mental assault to the petitioners. 5. In a deserving case, the Court can provide security to the couple, but cannot lend them the support they have sought. 6. If any person misbehaves or manhandles them, the Courts and police authorities are there to come to their rescue, but they cannot claim security as a matter of course or right without any serious threat. 7. It is also observed that no specific application in shape of information preferred before the concerned police authorities for lodging any FIR against any illegal conduct carried out by the private respondents, if that be so, and no heed has ever been paid by the concerned police authorities, there is no specific averment available in the petition that any case has been instituted in pursuance to Section 175(3) of BNSS. 8. In view thereof, no case made out for seeking indulgence of the Court over the prayer as made in the petition, hence, the same is hereby disposed of.
