If your husband refuses a mutual consent divorce, you can file for divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act on grounds of cruelty, desertion, adultery, or other grounds specified in the Act. You will need to prove your case with evidence to obtain a divorce.

My wife filed a 498A case against me a year ago, and we’re currently in the middle of it. She just filed a fresh FIR at a different police station, alleging rape. This is despite the fact that I was granted bail in the 498A case, and we’ve already submitted our own FIR regarding her family’s threats and harassment. Should I be worried about this new FIR? We’ve already provided evidence to the police, and I was living in the same city as her due to my work. Now I’ve been transferred, but she’s following up on this old complaint. This whole issue was already mentioned in the 498A case, and we’ve filed a counter-statement. What should I do?

My marriage in 2012 hasn’t been happy. My wife left home two years ago and we haven’t had children. She’s always suspicious of me and focuses more on my money than our relationship. I’ve tried to make it work, but she’s not fulfilling her responsibilities as a wife or daughter-in-law and constantly demands money for her family. I’ve been generous, even giving her family ₹50,000 for her wedding. But she keeps trying to control our finances and accuses me of having another woman when I refuse. I’m kind and want a divorce, but she and her family are against it. What can I do to end this marriage legally?
