Friends,

I need your guidance and advice.

whether at the time of filing of a complaint under DV Act on behalf of a wife, Verification is required?

What is required in verification ? Complainant required to state the complaint word by word or something else?

Do we need to give any verification statement?

What is exactly verification statement ?

does anyone has a draft of verification statement in such complaint, then please share with me.

regards

There is a prescribed format to file the complaint under DV act you have to file a complaint according to that.

Verification or not, but the complainant would compulsorily have to affirm affidavit in the said complaint and if the petition is accompanied by affidavit then it would not require verification. The Rules of the Act does not prescribe for verification, but for affidavit.

Format is given in the Act itself. Verification is not required nor affidavit for sec 12 application. Affidavit is must for sec.23 application because sometime it is decided exparty.
