I got married a month back. I was forced for marriage so I married without liking it. Also now got to know that he is not going for work and I am not happy and spending my salary for everything. Is there any way to make this marriage void ?

A.Dear Client,

Section 12 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 outlines grounds for voidable marriage, including impotence, prohibited degrees of relation, or mental incapacity. The court can declare such marriages void through a decree of nullity. Disputes between spouses can be resolved either through mutual agreement or court intervention, including seeking a decree of mutual divorce. Section 14 prohibits filing for divorce within one year of marriage.

A.Dear Client,
Section 12 in The Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 prescribed the grounds for voidable marriage. A marriage can be held null and void if the respondent was impotent at the time of marriage and at the time of the institution of the suit, or the parties are within the prohibited degrees of consanguinity (whether natural or legal) or affinity; or either party was a lunatic or idiot at the time of the marriage. Marriages can be held voidable by the decree of nullity by the court under Section 12 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Any dispute or difference between a married couple either be resolved on mutual understanding out of court or through the intervention of the Court. When the relationship between a married couple becomes toxic and irretrievable, the best way to resolve the crisis is to opt for mutual divorce with mutual understanding to set free each other and that also requires a court order. Sometimes, an ethics counsellor or a matrimonial expert resolves the issues most conveniently and smoothly. You can also take a chance to resolve the crisis. When no other way left to restore the matrimonial relationship or to resolve the dispute between a married couple, either one of them has to opt for recourse to relevant laws that govern the relationship between a married couple. Section 14 of the Hindu Marriage Act states that no one is allowed to file for divorce within one year of their marriage. Reach out to an Advocate experienced in matrimonial matters for guidance and steps.
