Yes, a petition could be filed; but the divorce is granted only after the mandatory 'cooling period' . However, the Court can make exception where the marriage has irretrievably broken down and there is no scope at all for a reconciliation.

You can file a petition for divorce before the family court only after one year of the marriage. If both of you are filing a joint petition it will take only six month to get the divorce.However councelling is mandatory.
