A notice was given to the marriage officer for marriage under special marriage act and within one month thereof social marriage was solemnised following hindu rites and saptapadi was performed. The marriage officer was also present at that time. After marriage was over the husband and wife and their witnesses signed in the marriage register brought by the marriage officer.
Now the question is that under which section i.e. 13B of HMA or 28 of Spl. M.A the divorce on mutual consent requires to be filed ?
The petition of mutual divorce should be addressed to whom ?
Please clarify.

The relevant Act is mentioned in the Marriage Certificate itself and accordingly you have to submit the petition.
