A.Dear Sir,
You can get issue a legal notice calling upon her to return to the house. If there is no result then go for filing RCR.

A.Dear Client,
Under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, either spouse has the legal right to file a petition in a district court seeking the restitution of conjugal rights. This provision can be invoked when one spouse has been deserted without reasonable cause or excuse. If the husband successfully pursues the Section 9 case, commonly known as Restitution of Conjugal Rights (RCR), the wife may not be entitled to maintenance under Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC). The court's decision in an RCR suit signifies that the wife lacked sufficient reason for refusing to live with her husband. In order for the wife to claim maintenance, she must establish her inability to support herself. If there is no evidence of ill-treatment by the husband and no justifiable reason for the wife to live separately, her claim for maintenance may not be valid. To proceed with a divorce, you can file a case one year after withdrawing the RCR case. It is essential to formally withdraw the RCR case by stating that your wife has expressed readiness for divorce. In situations where cohabitation is unfeasible and mutual divorce is not achievable, initiating a contested divorce petition becomes a viable option. While grounds for a one-sided divorce present various challenges, seeking legal advice from an experienced divorce lawyer is crucial before filing a contested divorce petition.

A.Dear Client,
Under section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, any spouse can file a petition before a district court for the restitution of Conjugal Rights. This remedy can be sought by either the husband or the wife who has been deserted or separated from the other spouse without any reasonable cause or excuse. If the husband wins the Sec 9 (RCR) case then the wife is not entitled to Maintenance u/s.125 of CrPC. The decision in a suit against the wife for restitution of conjugal rights is equivalent to a decision by a competent civil court that the wife had no sufficient reason for refusing to live with her husband. In case the wife claims maintenance, she must prove that she is unable to maintain herself. But, if there is no evidence of ill-treatment by the husband and the wife has no just cause to live separately, she is not entitled to claim the maintenance. You can file a divorce case after completion of one year after withdrawal of the RCR case. You must withdraw the RCR case saying that your wife declared that she is ready for divorce. When there is no possibility of cohabitation and no scope of mutual divorce, you can file a one-sided/contested divorce petition before the appropriate Court praying for a decree of divorce. However, grounds for one-sided divorce reflect the various challenges and complexities that may arise in the course of divorce proceedings. It is always recommended to consult an expert divorce lawyer to get the right legal advice before filing a contested divorce petition.
