My wife filed a case against me and my family, accusing us of cruelty. My family got bail, but I had to go to the High Court for mine. I was granted bail on the condition that I treat my wife with respect. I’m willing to have her stay at my parents’ house, but I’m not comfortable being intimate with her anymore. Is it illegal to refuse intimacy with my wife, and could this lead to my bail being revoked? We are both Hindus.

Under Indian law, a husband cannot be legally compelled to be intimate with his wife. However, refusing intimacy can be construed as a form of cruelty, which is an offense under the law. It is advisable to seek legal counsel to understand how this might impact your bail conditions.
