There are specific requirements for a valid divorce, and the use of a 20-rupee stamp paper with a notary stamp and two witnesses does not meet those requirements.

Divorces in our country are governed by the personal laws of the parties to the marriage, which vary depending on the religion of the parties involved. Generally speaking, divorce proceedings must be initiated by filing a petition in court, and the court must grant the divorce decree after considering various factors.

If you have concerns about the validity of your divorce, it is recommended that you consult with a qualified divorce lawyer who can provide you with legal advice based on the specific details of your situation, by clicking on the below-mentioned link -

Dear Queriest, as per your query you have signed on Rs. 20/- stamp paper which is not at all valid in any court of law. you have to properly file a case of divorce before the honorable court and get Decree of Divorce which will be only said that you are legally separated.

Answer #3

Hello, This form of procedure is invalid and is void ab initio and hence has no credibility in court of law. Do not worry. You should file a complaint and report this act of undue influence and harassment to police. You may contact us if you are from Mumbai and need further assistance in this regard.
