A.Having a consensual sexual relationship between married women and married man is not a crime in India. Earlier it was a crime. Any married man and women can have physical relation with consensus in India. If he hid the fact that he was married and made promise of marriage and you have such messages, text or recorded conversation to prove this, you can contact us with details.

A.Dear client,
If , sexual relationship on making promise for marriage a unmarried girl is an offense and may amount to RAPE as her consent was taken under the influence of to marry. While , if you want to file a case against your husband for Adultery can be used as a ground for divorce, but with the latest change in laws of adultery, the adulterer cannot be prosecuted criminally. Fir more you may consult for legal advice from this platform for paid service.

A.As per the new laws, Adultery is no longer a criminal offence and as such the person who is the adulterer is cannot be prosecuted in any criminal cases for such act. However, it is still a criteria to take divorce and has civil remedies. Adultery can be used as a ground to take divorce but with the latest change in laws relating to adultery the adulterer cannot be prosecuted criminally. Adultery has been De - Criminalised.
