  MOHORI BIBEE Vs. DHARMODAS GHOSE  ILR (1903) 30 CAL 539 (PC) Section 2(h) of the indian contract act defines a contract as a legally binding agreement. Contracts cannot be entered into by anyone; competency in this regard is outlined in Section 11 of the Act. Section 11 of the Indian Contract Act of 1872 states that anyone of majority age, of sound mind, and not disqualified by law is competent to contract. The Indian Majority Act of 1875 established the age of majority; according to Section 3 of the Act, anyone who has reached the age of 18 is a major. The Contract Act establishes the law regarding competency, but it makes no mention of the effect of a contract entered into by a minor. The following landmark case has resolved this conundrum. BENCH: Lord Mcnaughton, Lord Davey, Lord Lindley, Sir Ford North, Sir Andrew Scoble, Sir Andrew Wilson COURT: Privy Council FACTS In this case, Dharmodas Ghose, while still a minor, entered into an agreement with Brahmodutt, a moneylen...

  Ameen lives in the city of Baghdad of modern Iraq.The year is 1200 AD. He falls in love with a girl in the neighborhood named Rukhsar. However he has not told his parents about this. Rukhsar is also unaware of his thoughts. One fine day Ameen informs his father about his decision to solemnize nikah with Ruqsar. He also thinks of marrying Sultana. Please advise Ameen suitably about his marriage prospects under muslim law. Imagine yourself in the position of his fathers if you are acting as his guardian (Wali). PART A According to Muslim Law, a Muslim man can marry two women and live peacefully by satisfying their needs equally. It is called Bigamy in Islam. In this sense, Ameen  who lived in the city of Baghdad of modern Iraq in 1200 A.D. can marry both (Rukhsar and Sultana), if they and their guardian agree to marry with him in sound mind. If there is no free consent, the marriage contract is deemed null and void. Another important point is - If a minor has not reached puber...

  Experienced divers, people who deal with sharks, and people who read scientific reports about them know perfectly well that the general idea about sharks from “Jaws” is completely untrue. Of course, these animals are wild and dangerous, and theoretically a human does not have the slightest chance in winning a fight with them underwater… so what makes us push ourselves to face the possibility of close contact with a more-or-less real threat? Sharks have a cartilage-skeletal system, which means they have no bones. Although they are fish, often very large, they also do not have bladders. When it comes to the tools the average shark is equipped with, regardless of body size, he can boast 40 razor-sharp teeth, as well as excellent hearing and smell. Sharks have very poor eyesight, but they have electroreception, which allows them to detect changes in electric fields around them. When preparing to dive with sharks in places such as Galapagos, Bahamas, Philippines, Fernando de Noronha, ...

  Being underwater – be it through snorkeling, free diving or scuba diving – is a wonderful way to enjoy a completely different world to our land one. But by exploring this new world, our bodies are exposed to physiological changes created thanks to the difference between air and water. Your body is filled with “dead air spaces.” One of these dead air spaces is the air space within our middle ear. The middle ear is sealed by the eardrum and connected to the outer world by the Eustachian tubes running at the back of your throat. If you’ve been down to the bottom of a deep pool, flown in an airplane or driven to the top of a high mountain – the feeling of increased or decreased ear pressure will be a feeling that is familiar to you. This feeling is very similar when it comes to snorkeling, freediving and scuba diving.
