Can divorce be filed legally when petitioner himself demanded dowry
27-Jul-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi Sir, I have taken dowry of 1 lakhs while marriage. Now because of differences between us. I want to file divorse. But i have fear that I have taken dowry. Can i fight legally. Me and wife had frequent quarrel between us, and i have not physically abused her but my mom slapped once when she did wrong. Will we get punished for that ?
There are chances that your wife can file a case under dowry prohibition act , as well she can go for filing complaint against you and your mother under domestic violence act ( d.v act) before magistrate court and also claim for maintainence before family court

How many years you have been Married and was there any demand about by you to bring more dowry after marriage and whether you have taken in cash or cheque ..... generally they file a case for dowry harassment within seven years of marriage
