The restitution of conjugal rights is one of the reliefs that are provided to the spouses in distress in the institution of marriage by law. Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (hereinafter referred to as the Act) provides for the restitution of the conjugal rights. The section of the Act says:

�When either the husband or the wife has, without reasonable excuse, withdrawn from the society of the other, the aggrieved party may apply, by petition to the District Court, for the restitution of conjugal rights and the court, on being satisfied of the truth of the statements made in such petition and that there is no legal ground why the application should not be granted, may decree restitution of conjugal rights accordingly�.
