Indian Divorce Act, 1869
12. Court to be satisfied of absence of collusion
Upon any such petition for the dissolution of a marriage, the
court shall satisfy itself, so far as it reasonably can, not only as to the
facts alleged, but also whether or not the petitioner has been in any manner
accessory to, or conniving at, the going through of the said form of marriage,
or the adultery, or has condoned the same, and shall also enquire into any
countercharge which may be made against the petitioner.
