I would like to know whether disability is ground for divorce or annulment of marriage. wife married a person knowing his disability(polio effected) and after two months of marriage she dont want to live him and demanding 8lakhs alimony stating that husband cheated her by not disclosing his disablity. But marriage is done in presence of 300 people everyone witnessed it and in wedding album it is clearly visible that he wore prosthetics on two legs. he has spent total money on marriage by taking loans Now should he give alimony?will judge consider his facts and reduce alimony to atleast 3lakhs?

A.Dear Client,
The wife consented to marry the husband knowing his disabilities in such a case she cannot ask for a divorce and alimony because it would amount to mental harassment and abuse. The alimony will be reduced.

Thank You
