My wife and I got married in July 2015. Soon after, we faced difficulties with her menstrual cycle, with gaps of up to 3 months. She left for her parent’s home in February 2016, and now she’s threatening to file a domestic violence case against me and my parents. Some lawyers have advised waiting three more months to complete a six-month separation period. Should I try to bring her back, or is it best to move on? What should I do in this difficult situation?

Indian law recognizes a six-month period of separation for divorce proceedings. While you can try to reconcile, it’s advisable to consult a lawyer regarding the domestic violence claim and your options. The lawyer can provide specific advice based on your situation and applicable laws.
