Yes. Divorce Petition can be preferred by staying together and there is no any precondition of Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 that parties should stay separately. The requirement of Law would be no any cohabitation between both the parties and thus staying together in my opinion would not be the bar to file matrimonial proceedings on the grounds as contemplated in the said Act of 1955.
