hi ,
I got married in the month of feb 2012 , The marraige was conducted in a Gurudwara as my wife was a punjabi . There post the phera's a register was signed . My inlaws are from Delhi and i am based in Mumbai .
Now post marraige we shifted to mumbai the very next day ,however due to grave misunderstanding at both ends my wife went back to delhi within 5 days of the marraige . i have so far made 3 visits to delhi in attempts to reconcile with her and to get her back . But she refuses to come back on grounds of breach of trust and what not .
Now it is almost 3 months and i am not sure where we are heading in terms of this relationship . From the looks of it this marraige is over , allthough i want her back but cant think of convincing her . She has the full support of her family it seems to break this relationship .
Now the facts are such that we never connsumated post marraige ....and now she refuses to come back and has already decided to move on by taking up a job in delhi .
I want to know the below things
1. In what earliest time the marrige can be annuled
2. Am i liable to pay allimony to her if demanded ( she is employed ).
3 The marraige has not been registered except for the Gurudwara , do still need to annul the marraige / divorce legally .?
4 Although no dowry was involved since it was a intercaste marraige , can they file a case of dowry on me and my family ? How should i protect my self from this .
5 .Do i need to give all the gold back to her as part of Stri dhan including the ones that were given to my family members . I dont mind giving back what she got from her end , but have issues in giving back what we gave .
6 Can i file pettion here in Mumbai , or i will have to file it in delhi since we got married there , will i get a verdict in one sitting , or i will have multiple sessions .
7 what will be the Charges for appointing a lawyer on such an acount . Can one lawyer represent both .
It is an unfortunate event in my life that this had to happen , however i will not force the obligation of being my wife on some lady who does not want the relationship .Please help .
