We’ve been married for eight years, but things haven’t been good for a long time. My wife’s family has made life difficult for me, and we’re both unhappy. We’ve agreed that the marriage is over, and we both want a separation. However, her family is against the divorce, worried about the social stigma. We have a six-year-old child. We’ve been living separately under the same roof for a few years now. Can we still file for divorce?

Yes, you can file for divorce based on mutual consent. Under the Hindu Marriage Act, both parties must agree to the divorce, and a cooling-off period of six months is required. The child’s well-being will be considered during the proceedings.
