You can file a case of breach of promise to marry under Indian law, seeking compensation for emotional distress and damage to reputation. You may also be able to claim damages for expenses incurred in preparation for the wedding. However, proving the promise and the reliance on it is crucial.

I’m eager to join the Indian Armed Forces as an officer and have been preparing for SSB interviews. However, I’m facing a challenging situation – a criminal case back home where I’m innocent, but the police have charged me (possibly due to a woman filing the complaint).
