My wife wants a divorce, and when I asked her what she wanted, her parents demanded 35 lakhs. They want the divorce, but I want to stay with her. They threaten to go to court if we don’t pay.

While your wife’s parents cannot legally demand money for a divorce, they can file a case seeking maintenance for your wife and a share of your marital assets. This threat can be used to pressure you into an unfair settlement, but you have the right to fight it in court.
