Dear client,
Your question is apparently ambiguous as at one point of time you are asking question in relating to Hindu marriage and at the same time asking suggestion for divorce under section 28 of Special marriage Act.
Although you answer is that in divorce petition the wife name should be written with her husband's surname and in brackets with nee her maiden surname e.g.- Smt. Sonu husbands surname (nee Maiden surname).
And moreover you lawyer who is filling the divorce petition must be knowing this.
