This query is : Resolved
Dear Members,
I am a businessman from Jaipur.
I got married 8 years ago and have a son of 4 years.
My wife has been getting some Psychiatric trouble since last 3 years which included abnormal temper on myself and my son. We tried to consult a doctor, but she is not ready to go to the Doctor.
Now it has really become impossible to live with her. But my real worry is that in case i declare this intent to her she may use the current laws and regulation against me. I tried checking with few layers and i was suggested following
Financial Implications -
1 - She can not allege dowry against me and my family since it has been more than 7 years since we have been married.
2 - She cannot claim any part of my or my family's wealth/assets
3 - She can only demand 50% of my income as maintainance, but since she also has some sources of income it will be reduced by that exent.
Non-Financial Implication
1 - She can allege physical harassment against me and my family.
However i will have to produce evidence of her abnormal behavior like doctor report, teratment etc (which i dont have as she is never ready for this, we have been just once to a marriage counselor but not sure we have any record of that)
I seek the guidance of learned members as to how i should proceed further and what defense i should use in the case.
Thanking you all in anticipation
Regards
