Harveen Kaur decided on 12-9-2017 and we consider it appropriate to quote relevant paras-18 to 22 as under :— “18. Applying the above to the present situation, we are of the view that where the Court dealing with a matter is satisfied that a case is made out to waive the statutory period under Section 13B(2), it can do so after considering the following: (i) the statutory period of six months specified in Section 13B(2), in addition to the statutory period of one year under Section 13B(1) of separation of parties is already over before the first motion itself; (ii) all efforts for mediation/conciliation including efforts in terms of Order XXXIIA Rule 3 CPC/Section 23(2) of the Act/Section 9 of the Family Courts Act to reunite the parties have failed and there is no likelihood of success in that direction by any further efforts; (iii) the parties have genuinely settled their differences including alimony, custody of child or any other pending issues between the parties; (iv) the waiting period will only prolong their agony. 19. The waiver application can be filed one week after the first motion giving reasons for the prayer for waiver. 20. If the above conditions are satisfied, the waiver of the waiting period for the second motion will be in the discretion of the concerned Court. 21. 19. The waiver application can be filed one week after the first motion giving reasons for the prayer for waiver. 20. If the above conditions are satisfied, the waiver of the waiting period for the second motion will be in the discretion of the concerned Court. 21. Since we are of the view that the period mentioned in Section 13B(2) is not mandatory but directory, it will be open to the Court to exercise its discretion in the facts and circumstances of each case where there is no possibility of parties resuming cohabitation and there are chances of alternative rehabilitation. 22. Needless to say that in conducting such proceedings the Court can also use the medium of video conferencing and also permit genuine representation of the parties through close relations such as parents or siblings where the parties are unable to appear in person for any just and valid reason as may satisfy the Court, to advance the interest of justice. 23. The parties are now at liberty to move the concerned court for fresh consideration in the light of this order.” 5.

After having heard the parties and taking note of the submissions made which are recorded in the course of mediation proceedings and also what is being jointly stated by them in their joint application filed u/S.13B of the Act, we are satisfied that the parties have made all attempts to resolve their matrimonial discord through the process of mediation/conciliation but failed to reunite and this Court is also satisfied that there is no likelihood of any success in the said direction by any further orders and waiting period will prolong their agony and has made out a case for waiver of a statutory/cooling period of six months as mandated u/S.13B(2) of the Act, 1955 for seeking decree of divorce by consent. 7.
