My marriage was registered in 2014, but my wife has been harassing me since then. She filed a case against me in 2015, even though I never took any dowry. The police filed an FIR but haven’t submitted a charge sheet yet. I haven’t received any court summons. My wife, with her family’s support, is spreading false rumors and trying to force me to stay with her. This situation is unbearable, and I want to get a divorce. How long will the legal process take? Will filing these cases affect my ability to get a passport? I need to travel abroad for studies and work.

The duration of the divorce process can vary significantly depending on the complexity of the case, and the courts’ workload. While the ongoing police case might not directly affect your passport application, it’s advisable to consult with a lawyer to understand any potential delays or restrictions. You should also seek legal advice on the divorce proceedings and strategies to address the false allegations and harassment.

Ramesh, a young man from India, was excited to find Sujata’s profile at a marriage bureau. She was described as an IAS officer seeking a suitable partner. After verifying her credentials, Ramesh found that Sujata was indeed a newly appointed IAS officer and they soon got married in a court ceremony. A year later, a baby girl was born. However, Ramesh soon discovered that his wife’s claims were false. She wasn’t an IAS officer and had lied about her age. Devastated and feeling betrayed, Ramesh filed for divorce, citing fraud and deceit. The trial court, however, ruled against Ramesh, ordering him to pay a significant amount of alimony to Sujata and their daughter – exceeding half his salary. Ramesh, appealing to the Supreme Court, questioned the court’s decision: Should a woman who intentionally deceived a man into marriage be entitled to maintenance? Is it fair to allow a woman who deliberately entrapped a man to benefit from her actions?
