Legal Question in Family Law in India
Filing RCR and using it as ground for divorce
if HUSBAND files for RCR and get it
passed in his favor but wife refuses
to join with him for a continuous
period of one year after passing
RCR, can WIFE file for divorce
showing it as a ground?
Its clear in the above case that
husband, who filed RCR and get it
passed in his favor, can use the
one year separation as ground for
DV? but what about wife using the
same ground?

The RCR decree may be a good ground for divorce in the hands of the decree holder as it may establish 'desertion' of the opposite party and not vice versa.
