I’m a 36-year-old Hindu man, married in 2016. My wife and I are both physically challenged, but unfortunately, we realised our personalities are incompatible. We can’t live together. She’s constantly accusing my family and me of wrongdoings, threatening suicide, and even resorting to physical violence. I’m seeking guidance on whether I can get a divorce so that we can both find happiness in our separate lives.
Best Answer
Under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, you can seek a divorce on grounds of cruelty, which includes mental cruelty. Your wife’s accusations, threats, and violence constitute cruelty, and you can present this as evidence in court. A court will consider the specific circumstances and determine if a divorce is justified.
