Section 13(1) lists grounds that serve dual purposes: divorce (under S.13) and judicial separation (under S.10, which refers to S.13 grounds). Restitution of conjugal rights is an entirely separate remedy under Section 9, not connected to S.13 grounds.

  1. 1 Pick up HMA.
  2. 2 Go to Section 13(1).
  3. 3 Read the heading: Section 13 deals with divorce AND judicial separation.
  4. 4 Read Section 10: judicial separation is available on the same grounds as divorce under S.13.
  5. 5 Restitution of conjugal rights is under Section 9 — separate provision.
  6. 6 So S.13(1) covers divorce + judicial separation = (ii) & (iii).
The text reads: Section 13(1) provides grounds for both divorce and judicial separation. Restitution of conjugal rights is under Section 9.
