Yes, your marriage is still valid as it was legally registered in 2007. There is no prescribed time limit to file for divorce in India. You can file for divorce at any time after the separation, but you will need to establish grounds for divorce as per the applicable law.

I want to pay the full amount now and get a General Power of Attorney (GPA) in my name. Is this safe? Will the bank give me a loan based on this GPA? Can the original owner still sell the land to someone else after making the GPA in my favor?
