This is not at all a valid ground for seeking Divorce.

OUCH! !! If that is not cruelty, what can be cruelty? Either she doesn’t care for her husband or she is up to something evil on her mind. Here is a lesson for you too. When Donald Trump met Meleina, he asked for her number, but Meleina, refused to give him her number, why? Because Trump, was dating a woman, but Melenia, took Trump’s number. After about a month Melenia, called up Trump, but Trump, refused to pick up call from unknown number, and Melenia, send SMS “Hi it’s me Melenia”, immediately Trump, called her up and the rest is history. If at that point of time Melenia, did not took Trump’s number, perhaps she would never be Melenia Trump. Great things do not come by great deeds or events, but just a tiny deed goes to make a history of lives or tiny deeds destroy relationship. Phone is a peg to hang our emotions in a relationship, and if wife refused to give her number, it is certainly a ground for D-I-V-O-R-C-E.

Hence, I respectfully differ from R.Ramachandra.

Thank you very much N.K.Assumi, but dont you think divorce is too much for them? dont you think friends and relatives should try to patched them up together? I will first try to patched them up together and go for filing divorce petition.

Going by your views, I think it is the wife who is contemplating to snapped the relationship, otherwise she should have talked the matter with her husband or the friends and relatives should have stepped in to save their marriage, what are they watching? good that you would try to patched them up together.

No ground for divorce.

Funny story, but if true than it seems something fishy that why wife is refusing to share her phone number with husband. As such no one can force another to share his or her things of privacy but the phone number is not matter of privacy, although different types of messages, emails, letters etc. can be thing of privacy.

There seems to be difference of opinion between both parties but this only ground cannot be said to be act of mental cruelty. The husband and wife if are living together under the same roof the communication cannot be disturbed between both by not sharing the phone number, however if they live separately and not in communication by any other means than refusing to share of the phone number by wife can means that she is not interested in any sort of communication with husband while they are living separately hence it amounts to completely breaking of matrimonial home by the wife and this can be made ground for divorce.

If there is no communication between husband and wife then obviously matrimonial relationship has broken down. It can be ground for divorce.

N.K.Assumi (Advocate)     07 January 2018

Though living under the same roof, spouses may be far away from each other like 6 months cooling period in mutual consent divorce. In this case wife is at fault, maybe she is too busy with her phone in her work place, othersise why refused?
