Desertion or mutual consent

Dear sir, My wife who has deserted me has sent me below email from overseas. And wants me to file divorce application myself without her coming to India and involving any more in this case. She wants it to be ex parte decided. Kindly inform whether it will be better to go for contested application with desertion case or mutual consent without her presence or a combination of mutual consent and desertion as it’s for sure that she is not going to come from overseas for this case as is evidence from her email below also which has been sent as a note with her signature also. Email as I understand is an acceptable evidence under the Indian Evidence Act 1872 although it might be verified by the court whether she has sent it or not.

Kindly clarify.

Thanks

Kind regards

RKumar

@Rakesh - This improper concotions can land you in trouble later.

" contested application with desertion case or mutual consent without her presence or a combination of mutual consent"

Looks like you both are still at good terms - convince her that MCD will be in the best interest of both the parties (particularly you,don't tell her :) ). Engage a common lawyer and go for MCD. Exparte is not advisable when you still have the means to get MCD.She can provide vakalatnama,GPA to this common lawyer  who can help you with the legal steps for divorce.

Next steps can be contemplated depending upon how  the above mode works.

@Mr. Rakesh

Mutual Consent Divorce will b a better option to both of the parties in terms of period of time and harassment. Ask her to give a power of attorney to her relative and that relative appears in court on her behalf on 2nd motion of MCD.
