My husband and I are struggling. My father forced me into this marriage 18 months ago, and now I’m facing opposition from my family when I want to seek a divorce. I’m deeply unhappy in this marriage. It feels like I have no value in my husband’s family. I need help understanding my options.

In India, you have the right to file for divorce based on grounds like cruelty, desertion, and even if the marriage was forced. Your family’s opposition doesn’t impact your legal right to seek divorce. Consult a lawyer to understand the specific legal process and your options for obtaining a divorce.
