If both parties are adults and the marriage has not yet taken place, no person can be legally compelled to marry against his or her free will. Mere promise of marriage or being in a relationship does not create an enforceable right to marriage. If the woman is threatening, blackmailing, or pressuring you by threatening to defame you or ruin your life, preserve all messages, call recordings and other evidence. Avoid any further physical confrontation and communicate preferably in writing. If the threats continue, you may submit a written complaint to the police seeking appropriate legal protection and action. If you apprehend a false complaint, you may also consider giving a prior written representation to the concerned police authority with supporting evidence.

As per your query, since there is no legal marriage solemnized between you both, this is not a Divorce Law matter. This is a matter relating to a consensual relationship which you want to end. Under Indian law, marriage requires free consent of both parties. No one can compel you to marry against your will. A conditional understanding that you will marry after getting a government job does not create a legally enforceable right to marry. In your situation, you have the right to end a relationship which has become toxic and where physical altercations are happening. However you should proceed in a careful and documented manner: 1. You should communicate your decision to end the relationship in a clear, polite and written form like WhatsApp or email and keep a copy of it. Avoid any abusive, threatening or emotional language. 2. You should preserve all prior chats, messages and any evidence of misunderstanding and the threats being given to you. 3. You should immediately stop all physical meetings and intimacy to avoid any further complications. 4. If you are being threatened or blackmailed that your life will be spoiled, you have the right to file a written complaint before the local police and before the SP/DCP office for your protection. This will create an official record that you are being pressured. 5. It is advisable to try to resolve the matter amicably through mediation or with intervention of common friends / family elders, if possible. For any future complication, maintaining proper written record is very important. You should consult a local lawyer with all your evidence for detailed guidance.
