My husband wants a divorce and says it should be “mutual.” But I don’t want a divorce! He won’t take me back and I’ve been living with my father for the past 3 years because of health issues and problems with my in-laws. Can I stop him from getting a divorce without my consent?

Under Indian law, a divorce cannot be granted solely on your husband’s desire. For a divorce to be granted, both parties must consent or prove grounds for divorce. You can oppose the divorce and present your case in court. However, if your husband can prove grounds for divorce, the court may grant it even without your consent.
