1. The said reading from some newspaper is not legal divorce. 

2. Hindu Marriage Act applies to Buddhist too.

3. Seeking divorce post marriage on grounds of 'conversion' is not possible in Law. 

4. Hence now you can not claim divorce on grounds of 're-conversion'. Use 'legal available grounds' applicable under Hindu Marriage Laws to seek proper divorce.

even if you convert yourself to any religion, it can be a ground for your spouse to get divorce.

Not for you
