Hi I'm a 25 years old boy. I'm in a relationship with a girl for last 4 years. We both were serious about our relationship and intended to marry with promise to marry made by each party. In front of everyone we showed this indent and promise. She herself has acknowledged this in front on some person that we were going to marry soon and had attend some social function as couple. Now she is refusing to marry me due to her parents pressure. I'm shocked and mentally depressed due to all this. What are the remedies do I have against her. A case of cheating or suit 4 breach of promise to marry

Sorry, there is no case made out in case the Girl refuses to marry, Till the time She actually marries you, she has all right to decide whether to marry or not to marry you.
You may be emotionally depressed or shocked, but sorry.

you can fight for breach of promise to marry. but in worst scenario it is the case of cheating only because many of the supreme court judgments states that the breach of promise is only cheating and nothing else. in other words from women's side it is the case of rape an not cheating. i am fighting one case like this but the only difference in my case is that the boy has married to someone else.
