2. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioner No.1 has been in live in relationship with petitioner No.2. Respondents No.4 to 8 have been extending threats of dire consequences to the petitioners as they are averse to their live in relationship. While drawing the attention of this Court to Annexure P-3 dated 06.09.2026, learned counsel has submitted that the matter was reported to Superintendent of Police, Ambala seeking his help, however, it had been in vain. Learned counsel submits that the petitioners would be satisfied if directions are issued to respondent No.2- Superintendent of Police, Ambala to look into the aforesaid representation and take appropriate steps at the earliest.
