exparte divorce and marriage

 Remedy under Prevention of Domestic Violence against woman Act. also available to the wife.

Biju Sir, I agree with Anil sir. It will not come under adultry. For adultry, woman sould be married. Here she is a divorcee.

 But Suchithra, here the man is married.

thank all once again.

is divorce in his case difficult??.

to my knowledge both my friend and his 1st wife want to join only for the purpose of the child.

 

Sir, under S.498 -adultry, a man whether married or unmarried has to have phisical relationship with a married woman. Here the woman is not married anymore.

 Yes Suchitra, Thank You.

 Simply put, the charge of adultery can be laid at the door of married person. A divorcee has severed all matrimonial connection. 

Anil ji, woman should be married for charge of adultry. It is not the condition for man.

 Madam Suchitra

I am posting this information with comments.

In Indian law, adultery is defined as s*x between a man and a woman without the consent of the woman's husband. The man is prosecutable and can be sentenced for up to five years (even if he himself was unmarried) whereas the married woman can not be jailed. Men have called the law gender discrimination in that women cannot be prosecuted for adultery and the National Commission of Women has criticized the British era law of being anti-feminist as it treats women as the property of their husbands and has consequentially recommended deletion of the law or reducing it to a civil offense. The Government is yet to act. Extramarital s*x without the consent of one's partner can be a valid grounds for monetary penalty on government employees, as ruled by the Central Administrative Tribunal.

Anil Sir, I know all this and I too think  woman is equally punishable for adultry. Laws should not be gender biased. I explained  the conditions requisite to file a case of adultry. But I know India is only country in the world with gender biased laws.

Dear Suchitra madam

The gentleman is old enough to understand what is what. Enough has been discussed and advised. I think he is capable of taking his independent decision.

After you have obtained a decree for restitution of conjugal rights, if your wife does not join you within one year, then after completion of one year, you can file for divorce. After obtaining the decree u/s.9 you cannot file for divorce for one year.
