Husband deserted me within 4 months of marriage what can i do


27-Oct-2023 (In Family Law)
Hi, I got married on20-10-2015. After marriage we started living in pune with in-laws. As dowry we gave 10 laks as demanded. Bcoz of family disputes between my husband and his parents we started living separately close to his office. He asked me to find a job and said that I need to pay half rent.The full advance and half rent was shared by me. In the month of March he left me and said he want mutual divorce as he is not interested in this marriage. When my parents convinced he came back and took me to psychiatrist and wanted to prove as am mentally ill but the psychiatrist rejected as perfectly alright and am working in an Mnc. In month of April he left me alone at home and didnot turn up. He sent a legal notice that am mad so can't continue relation. He is asking for mutual divorce.from past 7 months I am paying rent and staying in same house were he left me. Now I filed 498a as they are demanding for money. Can he file against me now. I want my husband to come and I need justice.

Hi
Now that you have filed a 498a for dowry, you should also file for Domestic violence.
Domestic violence comprise of economic, mental and financial stress so caused by husband.
Your husband has failed to provide you even shelter(as you are paying half rent ) and no point in continuing the relationship.
Do not consent for mutual consent divorce.
Let your husband file for contested divorce and you demand compensation running to crores. that is the way only to punish men who do not treat their wife properly
