Need a divorce after 10 years of torturous marriage


19-Apr-2026 (In Divorce Law)
I have been married for 10 years and have two children, aged 7and 5. We have privacy concerns, interference from in-laws, lack of transparency, not having a healthy relationship and many other issues. It has become impossible for me to continue adjusting and compromising. I tried for 10 years due to family pressure and for the sake of our children, but I can't continue anymore. Please guide me on a smooth separation process considering divorce after 10 years of marriage in India. Please help me.

To seek a divorce in India after ten years of torture, you can file for a contested divorce on the legal ground of cruelty. Indian law recognizes both physical and mental torture as valid reasons to dissolve a marriage.  1. Identify Your Legal Ground Under Indian personal laws (such as the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 or the Special Marriage Act, 1954), you can file for divorce based on Cruelty: Physical Cruelty: Direct bodily harm or assault. Mental Cruelty: Behavior that causes such extreme emotional pain or fear that living together becomes unbearable. This includes continuous verbal abuse, humiliation, or threats. also you can file Claim Maintenance/Alimony: You are entitled to seek financial support (maintenance) for yourself and any children under the Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act or Section 125 of the CrPC.

Hi, I understand what you may be going through. The divorce processes from a layman perspective which is one sided is a long process, i.e. being a contested divorce. It is always advisable to mediate and of possible seek a mutual divorce. You may consult for the process
