Question

Divorce - Hindu couple living separately since last 1 year

11-Feb-2024 (In Divorce Law)

Me and my wife (both Hindu) are living separately since last 1 year. She is carrying our 5 year old child. There has been no communication since last 6 months. We both seem to be looking for separation but due to zero communication since last 6 months.. Need legal advice on next steps.. as atleast I know we can’t live together. Wanted to know the implication if I file for divorce rather than talking to her before filing it.

Answer #2

Divorce can be filed on some grounds - like cruelty, desertion, adultery, etc. First of all, it needs to be determined whether any of those grounds are present. Secondly, the question of quantum of maintenance and alimony will come into question since you i.e husband is seeking divorce. So all these and some other factors will be relevant while considering whether or not to file for divorce straightaway.

It’s better you speak to her for mutual divorce which will get you rid from future litigations. Before talking to her plz do your proper home work as advice by your advocate. You need to hire expert advocate in this regard
