I think you had put this query earlier also.  Any how, the acts attributed against her amount to mental cruelty and you can file divorce case.  But filing divorce, one year from the date of marriage, you have to wait.  Otherwise, moving an application seeking leave to apply, you can file divorce case within one year on the ground of extreme hardship.

No medicine for doubt.  DIvorce is last option.  All the best in your future endeavooors in obtaining divorce decree and also fighting other cases filed on you and your parents by her.

Dear "prabhakar advocate",

Please explain :

"Otherwise, moving an application seeking leave to apply, you can file divorce case within one year on the ground of extreme hardship."

Are her allegations true or false?

What was her mental condition at the time of marriage? Can be cured if it is only a physchological disorder.Proper mediation and counselling can bring her to normalcy.I am not recomending legal procedures for getting rid of her.

Her allegations are completely false.She doubts whenever i talk over phone or come online in WhatsApp or FB in office.I dont have any idea why she behaves this way.Also she keeps on allegating about my friends and family to her family.I dont know about her mental condition before marriage as it was an arranged marriage and we talked very less but after mrg from the first day she behaves very rude and she gets angry on small issues and creates nuisance after that.And she never cools down even after repeated consolation.She drags things a lot even a small issue and ends up in telling that I did a big mistake marrying me and she will commit suicide etc.
