Under Indian law, leaving the country to avoid divorce proceedings is not a legal option. You cannot escape your legal obligations by fleeing the jurisdiction. To dissolve the marriage, you must follow the legal process for divorce in India, which includes filing a petition and seeking a court order.

The passport office requires a court order from a First Class Judicial Magistrate in Delhi confirming I’m a single parent and my husband is missing. I’d be grateful for any legal assistance to get this order so I can travel with my children.
