Can my husband force me to convert into Christianity?
21-Jan-2023 (In Family Law)
I'm hindhu married to a christain u see SPL mrrg act. We got married twice under the same act once without knowing to parents in 2010 and later in 2012 after their approval, however we did not inform them on the firat registration as we did not want them to be hurt. Now the issue is we have 5 month old daughter and my husband is pressurising me to get converted to Christianity or end the relationship.i thought of converting for the baby's sake but now I dont want to do it as he is very particular tht nor me or my family should influence baby with hindhu religion. No statues at home at home after conversion.. I need some legal advice. There has been lot of emotional torture from him the moment I concieved. When I was 5 months pregnant he asked me abort or give divorce if I don't convert
Your husband cannot force you to get converted to his religion. Following the religion and faith is the right of a person and it is left to that person to follow or not to follow it. Others cannot force you to convert to their religion. Failure to convert to your husband's religion is not a ground for seeking a divorce. Since your hauband has caused you an emotional distress, you can approach the court for protection order.

Here ,utmost importance should be given to family relationship.Neither religion nor your parents influence should ruin a young family.You can convince your husband that Hinduism is a way of life and statutes have no role other than symbolic.You can as well understand what is true Christianity through Church.Let the child grow as an Indian respecting all religion

It is clear case of emotional black. But, your taken a decision long back to be with him and face all future consequences whatever may come. Your life will be in misery either way. Better approach family counsellor along with your husband or approach your elders and better settle the problem amicably. Courts may not solve your problem. You are the best person to take a proper and strong decision.
