No, this is not the law. Because wife filed divorce and then husband filed divorce, it is not necessary that husband withdraws the divorce petition. Both the petitions can run concurrently. But if any of the parties want to withdraw then they are at liberty to withdraw irrespective of the fact that who filed first.
