This query is : Resolved
My marriage was on April 30th 2011. She came to Kuwait in August 2011. Due to problems my wife gone back to her home 7 months back in November 1st (from Kuwait). I had send a notice through my advocate in jan-2012 asking her to come back. In reply they made so many allegations (I am impotent, mental and cruelty)and told me that all the ornaments are with me. But all the things are with her and even my gold are with her. In february I had bought a plot in my place by taking loan from my work place (kuwait). I want to know can my wife make any demand or share in that property? All my relatives tried to compromise and asked her to come back. But as she had an affair before marriage she dont want to come. I have proof for that (e-mail send by her and reply from her lover). Now I dont want to continue also. I want to part. Will the new law will help her? can she claim any share in my property? (all was purchased form my savings form my salary and loan taken by me from Kuwait). Now for the past 7 months we never contacted. But even after threatening (that they will file DV against me & my parent and asked 10 lakhs as compensation but I didnt take any money from them) by her father they didnt do anything until now. Arent they playing waiting game? or waiting for the new law to come. What to do? please help.

law has not yet been amended . sell of the land bought by you .
your wife can claim moantenance , right to stay in shared household under DV act .
she cna also file complaint under 498 a for dowry harrasment .
you have to stay separate for period of 1 year then file for divorce . advisable to do it by mutual consent
