Hello,

First of all, arrange a meeting between her parents and your parents and try to resolve the issues amicably. Also extend all possible help to her if she is depressed or need medical treatment. Still she is adamant on harassing you and your family members, there is no option but to get rid of her by filing for divorce. What is the duration of your marriage? If it is within 1 year you can file for annulment of the marriage under section 12 of HMA by dissolving the marriage by a decree of nullity and if the marriage is more than 1 year old, you can file a divorce petition under section 13 1( 1a) of HMA(Cruelty). However, before filing for divorce, you should be ready to face all possible aftermaths like facing false 498a, DVC, Sec 125 Cr.P.C etc. Therefore, it is you to decide if you want any kind of action from your side or simply wait for the time to decide your life. If you need any assistance from me, feel free to contact me.
