Rupinder Kaur (Executive)     28 January 2012

Divorce on ground of conjugal rights

 as per the below amendment, is this applicable even after 10 years of marriage and having two kids and no parter is having any oter relation:

Objective and Reasoning of the Bill :

 The intention of the legislators to bring forth the concept of introduction of the new ground for divorce is aptly evident from the statement of objects and reasons of the Amendment Bill, which reads as under:

 “The rights to apply for divorce on the ground that cohabitation has not been resumed for a space of 2 years or more, from date of decree for restitution of conjugal rights, should be available to both, the husband and wife, as in such cases, it is clear that the marriage had proved a complete failure. There is therefore, no justification for tying the parties down to the bond of marriage”[5]

Dear Kaur in this amendment there is no provision or mention that this act will be applicable or not. it means it will be applicable.

There is one more ground proposed to be introduced and the proposal sent by the SC was approved by the PM and sent to the Cabinet. The pertinent case was Naveen Kohlee VS Neelu Kohli and the ground - Irretrievable Breakdown of Mariage. Still awaited passing in the Cabinet.
