The basic difference between Judicial Separation and divorce is that divorce brings the marriage to an end whereas judicial separation does not. In case of judicial separation the court orders for the prohibition on cohabiting together, but does not end the obligations of marriage. Both husband and wife still remain in the same ties of marriage obligations. In case of divorce the parties are allowed to get remarried, but in case of Judicial Separation it is illegal to get remarried. If you don't want to agree for divorce, you can strongly protest and prevent your husband from getting divorce. If you are in Chennai, you may contact me for further guidance and assistance.
