Husband is sufferring from severe oligospermia. In what manner this fact can be proved so as to get divorce on the ground of cruelty. Husband has not admitted his medical reports.

Don't know the ramifications and effects of the disease that you are mentioning - so can't say if it is tantamount to mental cruelty or not. If it is related to sterility (or merely affects performance) it is not - if it incapacitates an individual from having effective sex - it is such a ground.

oligospermia means low sperm count Achieving a pregnancy naturally may be a challenge if the male suffers from a low sperm count. However, chances are good if the female partner is fertile; many couples with this problem have been successful.
it does not maount to mental cruelty . you cna still have child by opting for IVF and ICSI

Oligospermia ! Oligospermia is defined as less number of sperm in the ejaculate of the male or less than 20 million sperm per milliliter. Sperm count below 20 million/ml is called Oligospermia.Normal Sperm count : 20 million / milliliter to 120 million / milliliter.
But it is treatable disease: hence, in my opinion ,it can not afford any ground of divorce.

If one is potent to intercourse then in ability to procure a child is no ground for divorce

1.HM Act recognizes impotency as a ground but not infertility.Infertility in women is also not a ground for divorce.
2. Impotency means inability to perform the sexual act and does not include inability to impregnate as in the case of oligospermia.
3. Oiligospermia is not cruelty on the part of husband as it is a medical condition and not a mental attitude of husband.It is a treatable complaint as Mr Prabhakar Singh said.
4. Mr Sethi is right. Opt for IVF etc.

Hi,
Not giving birth or inability to give birth to a child OR inabilty of husband to cause a child to be produced is not a ground of DIVORCE under HMA.Oligospermia is neither a disease nor deformity but it is only psychosomatic diorder ina male,which is treatable.However a man very rarely fails to performing his sexual obligations towards his wife.So the idea of the seeking divorce of the ground of disorder termed as oligospermi is only ridiculos....
