Legal action against forceful marriage of girl done by parents


24-May-2023 (In Family Law)
My wife has been forced by her parents to marry me despite knowing that she is in love with someone else. I was told of her love for someone else only after one week of marriage. We had both married in Church as per Christian law in the presence of parents and relatives from both sides. However, we have been living separately for the past 12+ months as I am a soldier and she is at her parent's residence. I cannot afford to pay alimony in my meagre income. Please advise as I cannot live in constant fear.

Do you have any proof that her parents forced her to marry you? What is her present state of mind to continue marital life with you. In case if she not willing then go for mutual settlement/divorce. Since their parents cheated, you need not to pay any alimony.
