for seperation one must get decree of Judicial Seperation under Section 10 of Hindu Law.If there is not cohabitation or resumption of marriage, for a period of one year or upwords, you can get your marriage annuled by filing another petion in the court ynder section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act.Please acknowledge.

A marriage cannot be dissolved except through a decree of divorce granted by a court.You can file for divorce if either spouse is staying seperately continuously for more than 2 years.
