Is a customary divorce valid and final?


08-Jan-2025 (In Divorce Law)
My in laws are asking to give 50% of the money before signing an MCD. I do not trust them at all. So my lawyer suggested me to take the route of customary divorce based on my caste. In this customary divorce we are planning to state 2 facts. 1. That we have given 50% of the money to them already. 2. The rest 50% of the money will be presented in court during the mutual divorce evidence. We are assuming this is better than a mere MOU. Please comment if this is ok.

in some caste customary divorce is valid. but as per law divorce obtained from a competent court is good. so that no further complications will not be there. so I suggest you to execute an MCD and approach the court of ur jurisdiction, file and obtain divorce.
