¹⁵⁶⁹ Vide *Sathyabhama v. Kesavacharya* 39 Mad. 658 at p. 660 where it is said, 'But in none of these texts is there any provision for a woman who has repented and was subsequently leading an honest life. It is not to be presumed from the omission to provide for such a contingency that the resumption once made is to be irrevocable and that the fallen woman who had reformed is to be denied even a starving allowance'. Vide also *Bhikubai v. Hariba* 27 Bom. L. R. 13 at pp. 23 and 26 and *Ramkumar v. Bhagawanta* 56 All. 392, 394.
