I’m struggling with domestic violence and my husband’s constant humiliation. We have two children, one 10 years old and the other 5. I want to end this marriage, but he refuses to grant me a divorce. Can I still get a divorce without his signature? What financial support can I get to raise our children? I’m a Hindu.

Under Indian law, you can file for divorce on grounds of cruelty and desertion, even without your husband’s signature. The court can grant you a divorce and order him to provide financial support for your children through maintenance and child support payments. A lawyer can advise you on your rights and help you navigate the legal process.

He wants me to sign an affidavit admitting to the affair, promising not to sue me for adultery in return. But my friend has now changed her mind about divorcing him, and I fear he’s setting me up.
