My wife and I haven’t been happy for five years, and we haven’t shared a physical relationship in that time. I want a divorce, but she’s not ready to let go. We have a five-year-old daughter, and she uses her as a reason to stay together. Her family constantly interferes in our lives, and she ignored my concerns about this. The situation has only worsened. She refuses to consider divorce because her parents won’t allow it. They won’t let her live with them either, and she relies on them completely. They mistreat her to avoid her presence at home. Despite knowing this, she’s afraid to go against her parents’ wishes. I’m looking for advice on how to move forward in this difficult situation.

In India, you can file for divorce based on grounds like cruelty and irretrievable breakdown of marriage. Given your wife’s inability to make decisions due to parental pressure, seeking legal advice is crucial to understand your options and navigate the divorce process, considering your daughter’s well-being.
