Two girls, who wanted to live together despite's their parents' objection, have realised their wish after the Chhattisgarh High Court allowed them to do so. Neha Singhania, 23, who had approached the court with a habeas corpus petition, said Friday that the court has fulfilled her long-cherished dream.

A division bench of the Chhattisgarh High Court, based at Bilaspur, ruled Thursday that Khusbu Jaiswal, a girl from Gondia of Maharashtra, can live with a person of her choice. The court also ordered authorities to give security to Khusbu and her Raipur-based friend Neha Singhania after they informed the court of their intention to live together and that they were not interested to live with their parents anymore.
