Dear Md. Shadab, First aand foremost the court does not give judgement just on the basis of allegations of any party ..... One has to provide evidence and prove all allegations ...... Suitable reply on behalf of wife would be to deny all allegations of the husband ..... Court will pass orders on the basis of the evidence brought before it only ...... If the husband proves all his alegations .... he will get divorce if not then his petiton is bound to be rejected.

Dear Amrik, Both of you will have to file a joint petition seeking divorce by mutual consent u/s - 13B of the Hindu Marraige Act as Petitioner No. 1 & Petitioner No. 2. State briefly facts of your marriage ...... reasons for staying separate & why you seek divorce with proof of marriage & marriage photograph/certificate and file before the Family Court. This type of divorce normally takes 7-8 months.

hello,

thr court normally would see that both can be live together, if circumstances are not in a position to live together, then court would certainly grant divorce.

both the parties to marriage filed a petition u/s 13-B of HMA, 1955 and make a statement at the time of filling the petition bofore the court of law.  The court gives 6 months time to reconciliation but on that day one party never come.  Whether the court can award the decree of divorce on the ground of statement made at the time of filling the petition or not? if yes please give me some exact SC or HC sitation on that point of law?

Yes it is very easy. you both move to the court for mutual consent and prepare a mutual agreement for divorce.

Court will hear you on first date and give you 6 months time to reconsider for divorce and on second date you will got divorce. In case of urgency, court may give divorce within one month also.

There is a supreme court latest judgment that in 13b, if one party did not appear then court cannot persume and divorce cannot be granted.

But as per my view you may go under section 13a

Defend the case of divorce properly and demand for child custody or findout that man and then file case against him. These all matters will delay the matter around 6 to 10 years and in the meanwhile u can convience her and restrain her to meet any other person.

Good luck
