Agar shaadi aapki marzi ke bina, pressure ya force ke under hui hai, to aap annulment (voidable marriage) ke liye court me petition file kar sakte hain. Law ke hisaab se, agar consent free nahi tha (force, coercion, undue influence), to marriage ko null and void declare karwaya ja sakta hai. Process & Steps: Aapko Family Court me annulment petition file karni hogi (generally under Hindu Marriage Act, Section 12 – agar aap Hindu hain). Petition me clearly mention karein ki aapki consent force/pressure se li gayi thi. Aapko supporting evidence dena hoga – jaise messages, witnesses, circumstances etc. Court notice issue karega wife ko, aur uske baad hearing hogi. Agar court satisfy hota hai ki consent valid nahi tha, to marriage annul ho sakti hai.

In Your case it depends on proving actual coercion, not just family pressure. Courts require clear evidence that your consent was not free at the time of marriage. If you have strong proof (messages, threats, witnesses), you can proceed with an annulment petition in Family Court. Otherwise, annulment may not succeed and a divorce petition would be a more practical option.

Hi there! In order to guide you through the process, it is important that you explain more about the marriage, like when was the marriage taken place and age of you and your spouse. Nullity of marriage has very limited scope and all the terms and conditions must be fulfilled to file a case for it.

Where the other party (wife) does not consent to divorce the husband can seek divorce on the grounds of cruelty. If you are major then the fact that family pressurised you for marriage is of no consequence. You will have to file a Divorce petition before the concerned Family Court.
