My husband has been spending a lot of time on the phone late at night, talking to someone he claims is a colleague. He’s also become distant and less interested in being intimate. I’ve noticed calls from unknown numbers on his phone. Could this be grounds for divorce? What evidence would I need to present in court?

While suspicion alone isn’t grounds for divorce in India, evidence of adultery or cruelty could be. You would need to gather proof of his affair, such as phone records, messages, or witness testimonies. A lawyer can help you determine the best course of action and gather the necessary evidence.

I’m facing some challenges in my marriage and want to explore divorce. What’s the process if my wife agrees, and what if she doesn’t?

My husband recently moved abroad for work. Feeling a bit lost, I reached out to a friend who had proposed to me earlier for some financial help. He sent some money, but my husband found out and is now constantly checking my emails. He and his mother are pressuring me for a divorce, claiming I wasn’t a virgin before marriage, based on lies spread by my friends. I don’t want a divorce, I love my husband and want to spend the rest of my life with him. What can I do? I’m being mentally harassed and need help.

My wife and I are both in transferable government jobs. She’s a Major in the NCC and I work for the central government. We’ve been apart a lot since getting married, with her staying with our two children. For the past couple of years, her behavior has changed drastically. She rarely talks to me on the phone, and when I call, she argues. Now, she’s threatening to have me arrested if I try to see her. She says she’ll file a police complaint alleging dowry and physical abuse against me, my mother, and brothers. I’m incredibly stressed. What should I do?

I’ve tried to work things out amicably with my husband and his family, but they’ve been uncooperative. I’ve faced cruelty and things could have gotten worse if I hadn’t left their house. They’re holding my jewellery, clothes, and other personal belongings. I wanted a peaceful separation, but their behaviour is forcing me to consider a divorce based on cruelty. Will this take longer and be more expensive? I want my rights and justice. Please guide me.

My friend and I were close, she often spoke about wanting to leave her husband, saying he was abusive. We developed feelings for each other, and now her husband has proof of our relationship. 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. She’s very manipulative, and claims her husband is also having an affair. I’m worried about this situation and need advice on how to protect myself.
