In this present case, in the event both husband and wife mutually decide to take divorce, both can together apply for Divorce by mutual consent. The process is simple, and takes it takes 6 months, for divorce to be granted, and while couple has to appear before court only twice. Both Husband and wife need to be represented through separate lawyers.
IN the alternate, in the event wife is not ready for divorce, husband has an option to file contested case under reasons/options available under the law which includes cruelty.
