Can the husband get back the gold thali(chain+manglayam)after divorce.
07-Oct-2023 (In Divorce Law)
In Indian divorce proceedings, a mangalsutra is generally considered the wife's Stridhan, meaning it is her exclusive property and she is not legally required to return it to her husband. Stridhan encompasses all gifts given to a woman before, during, or after marriage, granting her full ownership rights. However, in the case of a mutual consent divorce, the couple may mutually agree on its return. After divorce, keeping, selling, or returning the mangalsutra is a personal choice for the woman. While some retain it as a symbol of their past, others may remove it to signify closure, but legally she has no obligation to return it.
