Advise on divorce

HI, I recently got married in Kerala and staying in Delhi with my wife.

Things not working well between me and my wife, so I planning to divorce. Please let me know the procedure for it.

Also we haven't got marriage certificate from Kerala yet.

If my wife doesn't gives me mutual divorce which is alternative option for me and how long will it take.

 

Brief:-

On 29th June 2014 was my Marriage according to hindu law in Temple, and only on temple record book we signed as married couples.

No Child we have

It has just been 6 months of marriage we didn’t had single day of peaceful life, earlier we used to have verbal fights and now we have physical fights.

My wife is a lawyer and comes from well know lawyer family, I am an IT guy.

After marriage we used to stay with my parents and everything was fine, but slowly she felt she is out of box and we had to move out to a rented apartment and stay separately, but the way she chose to get out of home was emotional blackmail, threatening to cut her hand, roaming in midnight. I thought things will be fine even after moving to new home, but she remains to same.

My parents have never said a word or did any action to my wife, they have always be caring about her that’s why even when she did all tamasha my parents without a word agreed to her whim and fancy’s

She decides what I should I eat, whom to meet, when to sleep, when to work. She doesn’t allow me to meet my parents or relatives, whenever I plan to go home she make excuses and fight starts.

She is over-possessive about me in negative manner that she has killed my social life, but she forces me to meet her friends and accompany me in her social life.

I even approached police, but they told me better to agree with my wife demands or I will land in trouble

I tried talking to her lot of time about the differences, but she always suppress my talks and make me agree that her decision is right. I have told her many times about divorce to her but she take it lightly and I am sure she is not going to give me mutual divorce.

I have constant fear that she will harm herself or implicate me in false case and put me and my family In trouble

Even I tried to contact her family, but they won’t come and talk to me as she has told her family it’s her personal matter and she will solve it.

In this marriage no dowry or no demands were ever placed by my family or me, even though they tried to lure me in to expensive gifts but I completely denied them.

 

Please advise me on legal front to get out from this web as soon as possible.

In my views your wife has dominating attitude and nature that is why she is domineering others.  Divorce cannot be the solution for changing her such habit rather indoctrination will be fruitful. Take help of any good Psychiatrist  and consult him whether or not counselling is needed

It will be too early to think of divorce, you have to wait atleast for one year from the date of marriage. If she is not cooperative or conducive, you may choose between living with her and divorcing her. But you may have to wait for one year for this.
