Does court mediation helps in restoring marriage.

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 04 November 2020 This query is : Resolved 
My husband has filed divorce on cruelty last year DEC'19.Before filing divorce he made me to sign MOU also where we both agreed that we will give eachother time of 6 months to think but after 2 months of signing MOU he filed for divorce.Based on MOU I left house.We have been married for 3 years no kids.Always have issues because of his parents.Whenever they have visited us they used to create issues & asked me to leave the house.Everything was good between me & husband but he cant stand against his parents as he is the only son.But due to these small small issues our relation got affected.So last year in Aug I saw his messages with his office colleague which are not normal.I think it was emotional affair.But rather than sorting out the issues he filed divorce on cruelty.I really dont want divorce he is good person who did bad thing.So in July'20 my advocate advised me to file DV case as my inlaws have asked me to leave house in Dec'19 only.After that I tried to go there but they didnt allow me.Even my MIL called police also but they didnt do anything.I have many reason to file DV as my inlaws have always used wrong language for me they never wanted me to work & many other things for which I have proof also with me.House is in name of my FIL & as I have filed DV case my husband is staying in PG as per them.I really dont want to harass them I really want to give marriage one other chance.so my question is :
1) Filing DV will cause divorce only or will it help to stop divorce.
2) Will Mediation help in restoration of marriage.
3) I am ready to withdraw DV case as of now no hearing done in DV case. but I want to go back to my matrimonial home so is there any other way.
Please advice what can I do to save marriage.Till now we have only attended one mediation session.

Self Reconciliation would be more effective than mediation.

DV case can be a base, divorce is not be awarded in the decision of DV case proceedings.

Mediation itself would provide the means to save the marriage.Please be honest and sincere with yourself.

Saving marriage requires a good effort and calm mind. You can talk to him openly about your proposal and if he is interested to re start take the help of elders to sort out minor manageable issues to start a fresh life.

Instead of filing a case under the provisions of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 you should have discussed (privately) with your husband to withdraw his divorce case and rejoin his society, which you have detroirated.
Availing legal recourse has poisioned mind of your husband and in-laws.
It would be better to involve respectable persons from both parties to resolve the issues amicably, reconsile and decide future action.
