Answer #4

It would be essential to know of the time period they spent in India before this question is answered. This includes questions of their past, current and future status of residence and citizenship. The domicile of the parties is of significance with respect to matters of marriage and divorce. Once the said is known, we may be able to find out if they may be able to file for divorce in India or not.
