Chennai: A Madras court ruled that there was no need to provide tea and snacks to the husband when the wife came to visit her children.

A two-judge bench of the Madras High Court has now set aside this order. The order was passed by a single bench judge during the hearing in July.
A bench of Justice Paresh Upadhyay and Justice D Bharat Chakraborty said there was no need to pass any such order. He also explained that the earlier order pertained only to the manner in which separated husband and wife should behave in the movement of children.
