April 27, 2025 at 2:13 amIf the marriage has not been consummated, you can file for annulment. This must be done within the year.Option 2: you have to stay apart for a year, and file for mutual divorce. This is the easiest and quickest.
Option 3: Show cruelty or other reasons for divorce and file contested divorce.

April 27, 2025 at 2:28 amSure. Marriage has not been consummated.
In Annulment, what if husband doesn’t want to give divorce. Does he have any right to fight not to give divorce. Or will it favourable to me only??For option2: what if the spouse protests that he doesn’t want to give divorce?
What can be done.-

April 27, 2025 at 2:37 amIndian law favors women. There are a million avenues in India if a woman wants a divorce. Husband can contest, but you’ll be given the preference. -

April 27, 2025 at 2:39 amNAL. But this is what I’ve personally seen when a women who’s close to me, was beaten black and blue by her husband – almost every other week.1. Record him. There’s are voice recorders available, which work upto 8 hours. You can buy a few. Video record him, and secure these recordings.
2. Keep call records.
3. Never give access to your phone/laptop.
4. Secure your jewellery.
5. Figure out the nearest police station, or mahila thana, in case of domestic violence call the police and atleast make a diary/register entry of incident (threatening/hitting/breaking or throwing of household items/ creating public nuisance).
6. Never chat on telegram, keep sexting records, specially the part where he must have requested unnatural acts from you.

April 27, 2025 at 3:14 amHi. I’m a Delhi based lawyer, with extensive experience in matrimonial matters. Divorce cannot be filed unless you complete one year of marriage, also including year of living separately, unless ofcourse there are very pressing circumstances. You can file for annulment though, if you can satisfy the grounds.-

April 27, 2025 at 12:14 pmWhat are the grounds of annulment and proof of evidences ?
Is one who has been forced to get married can file for annulment and what are the evidences required for that petition? -

April 29, 2025 at 6:37 amHi mamYou suggested that my marriage could be null and void and can file for annulment.
But my marriage was done as per proper Hindu culture and rituals and we both belong to Hindu religion.Also in evidence, I can only show my spouse’s whatsapp chat where he mentally abused me and verbally say my parents forced me. Not more than this?
Can I still get annulment on forced marriage basis?

April 27, 2025 at 6:18 amNAL , but still :-File annulment saying your consent was not taken, parents forced you etc, there is no consummation yet – no evidences required and will take 6-12 months to setlle. In the meantime move out and focus on your economic survival , and start life afresh.
If u want to punish – put all this plus 498a and DV . But you may not like to spoil their lives forever
Choice is yours

OP
April 27, 2025 at 6:21 amNo sir. I dont want to spoil anyone’s life. I dont need alimony or any sort of money from him. But I dont want this marriage.Only concern is there is no support for me. I dont think my parents/ siblings will help me in this. I am naive and get influenced by my parents/family.
But I want to get out of this ASAP.

April 27, 2025 at 6:23 amSir in this case, can husband protest and deny to give divorce??
Will law favour him or drag divorce if he protests???-

April 27, 2025 at 7:42 amHe can deny, but matrimonial laws favor females . High chance you may get one-sided decision on your side.But again, try to become financially independent. as usual, your Mayka may not support your or start frustrating you even more.

April 27, 2025 at 8:02 amSorry. What is one sides decision?-

April 27, 2025 at 8:30 amHow to explain 🙁Indian courts takes Girl side petition very earnestly- and in the name of ‘saving girls future’ can give early decision to grant you divorce, so that you can start your remarried life soon .
If ur opposite side doesnt turn up , they can even expedite ex-parte (or one-sided) judgement.
Either case, as a girl if u show eagerness toward divorce – judge may tilt the case in ur favor. Had u been a male petitioner- story is completely inverse !

April 29, 2025 at 2:30 amOne doubt, my friend is also facing the same issue. My friend was forced to get married and groom too knows that she was not interested in the marriage. It’s been 2 months now. Can she claim annulment. Also can the husband claim any compensation for the same ?

April 27, 2025 at 7:50 amI think so you should actually wait for some time ma’am it’s just one week and new things are difficult here to get into that change but after a month or 2 months things might settle you might to this new home and family yet everyone here looks to divorce you for better future and all there is nothing like that I would say your marriage is in your hands and in your partner hand just try to adjust with them keep expectations low temporarily later on things will settle even I saw your kundli also in your profile predicted many similarities are there things will settle down trust me don’t be in hurry of divorce trust me there is something good is coming you might in be wrong mahadasha ma’am but don’t divorce later on there is no sufferings trust me its an part of life try to understand don’t go in illusions ma’am-

April 27, 2025 at 8:00 amOhh ok I understand see both of your kundli have similar placements shows you and your partner both have similar thinking i would say don’t rush wait and see if something works or else your wish divorce but don’t take alimony if he didn’t took the dowry and don’t put the cases of 498A and all its an useless torcher for them if it’s really problematic god will punish him if he took dowry take alimony or else leave it on God , god will punish it ma’am
