Legal Question in Family Law in India
I got married recently. It was an arranged marriage jointly organized by both parties. The very first day after my marriage I came to know (after scanning my wife�s mobile phone) that my wife had an affair and she was in a live-in-relationship with her boyfriend, and this was continue even after our engagement for a period of 2 months till our marriage. During this period she continuously lied that she is staying with one of her female friend and me too believed this and didn't inquire too much.
Eventually she told me that she need some time to forget all these and lead a normal life, but instead of these she started behaving aggressively and quarreling unnecessarily over trivial issues.
She used to watch TV for long time, always talking over mobile phone with her friends, not cooking food properly and on time, forcing my old age mother to cook etc. She had severe migraine also for which she used to take disprin tablet every time .
Her behavior was also very bad, she used to talk for long on her mobile with her friends/relatives ignoring my presence, and whenever I tried to stop, she quarreled. Even I had to go to kitchen to serve food myself. Sometimes she used my laptop for chatting/emails and to hide her activities she used to delete everything including my important files used in my IT business. In the meantime I again caught her talking to her boyfriend on mobile for which our whole family scolded her and threatened to lodge an FIR, she again cried and promised she would not do it again and pleaded not to disclose this to her family members.
My mother used to scold her sometimes over her activities. But whenever my mother used to scold her she would simply call her mother and exaggerate her everything.
She always used to force me to purchase a flat in any metro cities (while I'm having a 3 story house and a nuclear family), not cleaning up my room properly and used to make my room a mess. Sometimes she even asked me to sleep on the floor.
We sustained for two months and recently she fought over wearing jeans pant and quarreled unnecessarily. We had a heated arguments and finally she started collecting her stuff, clothes, jewellery and everything including a hairpin. After 3-4 days she called her mother and brother and without discussing anything left our house. At the time of leaving we asked her to give it in writing that she is leaving our house, an affidavit was signed by her where it was mentioned that she is leaving our house with all her belongings due to her personal problem and with proper consent of her parents.
After 3-4 months, their family members came to my house and said we have tortured her daughter hence she needs divorce and fought unnecessarily and asked for money spent on marriage and reception. It was an arranged marriage without any dowry and both parties had contributed equally.
What options do I have right now? Please guide.
