Which one of the following is not a ground for dissolution of a Muslim marriage under the Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939?
Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 2 expressly recognises four years of unknown whereabouts, two years of failure to maintain, and the qualifying repudiation of a guardian-arranged childhood marriage before eighteen without consummation. Nonpayment of mehr is not a separately enumerated statutory ground for dissolution, although it gives separate dower remedies and may affect cohabitation rights.
