A. Dear Client,
Both men and women can experience emotional distress and pain due to a failed relationship or being deceived by their partner. However, it's important to note that relationship issues, including breakups and emotional distress, are typically not addressed through legal means unless they involve more severe forms of abuse or harassment. Legal systems generally focus on addressing actions that violate specific laws or rights.

In many jurisdictions, emotional distress resulting from a ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,
Under the Indian Penal Code (IPC), a breach of promise to marry is not considered a criminal offence, and therefore, a case of cheating cannot be filed under the IPC for breach of promise to marry. However, if the promise to marry was made with fraudulent intentions, such as inducing the other party to part with money or property, then it may be possible to file a case of cheating under Section 415 of the IPC.

A. Dear Client,
A trustee cannot resign without the permission of the court unless the trust instrument so provides or unless all of the beneficiaries who are legally capable to do so consent to the resignation. The court usually permits the trustee to resign if continuing to serve will be an unreasonable burden for the trustee and the resignation will not be greatly detrimental to the trust. Appointment of the trustee should be done formally, expressly in writing, even though it will always be imp ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,
Explanation 1 to Section 60 of the Indian Trust Act provides, inter alia, that a person domiciled abroad or an alien enemy, i.e. a person not domiciled/ resident in India or a person belonging to a state which is at war with India, are not proper persons to be trustees and they are not permitted to be trustees of Indian resident trusts.

Hence if you are domiciled abroad, you cannot be a trustee

In case if you want a more organized, structural management to provide social benefits to public at large then formatio ...ReadMore
