My wife and I have been married for a year, and it’s been difficult. My parents live with us, and she doesn’t get along with them. We fight constantly, even over small things, and sometimes she even disrespects my parents. She also wants me to convert to Christianity, as she is Christian and I’m Hindu. We’ve reached a point where we don’t even talk anymore. Could you tell me what I need to know about filing for divorce in this situation?

In India, you can file for divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act or the Special Marriage Act, depending on your marriage registration. Grounds for divorce include cruelty, desertion, and conversion. You should consult with a lawyer to discuss the specific grounds applicable to your situation and to understand the divorce process and legal requirements.

My marriage in November 2013 ended sadly after a month when my wife left me for someone else. Despite family efforts to reconcile for half a year, I had to file for her return to our home in May 2014. The case dragged on for 18 months, with her only appearing twice in court. We eventually decided to separate amicably in December 2015, signing a handwritten agreement witnessed by our families and lawyers. I filed for divorce the same month, and after she ignored the summons, I received an ex-parte divorce in April 2016. Is there a possibility she might try to re-enter my life, and what steps can I take to protect myself?

Previous Article My company has a two-month notice period and pays salaries between the 4th and 9th of every month. I submitted my resignation on the 12th of this month and am currently serving the notice period. I’ve heard that companies are required to pay the full salary for the month an employee resigns. Could someone explain this to me? Additionally, my company processes final settlements after 45 days, meaning I’ll have to wait almost three months to receive my dues. Is this standard practice?
Next Article I bought a shop from someone who got it from the builder. However, the blueprint shows it as stilt parking, and I only found out later. The society has received its occupancy certificate (OC), and I even paid stamp duty and registered the shop in 2005. The previous owner took a loan from ICICI Bank, and I have the documents. But I’m not a society member, and the builder has passed away, leaving his son in charge. What should I do now?
