Legal Question in Family Law in India
My husband filed a Divorce petition at Jalpaiguri,WestBengal . For the last seven years the case has been pending in the court without any settlement till now . I have been staying at my fathers house at Kolkata,W.B . But now I am suffering from illness and unable to move and don't want to oppose the divorce petition and agree for the divorce. But due to illness I am unable to go Ranchi court and file any petition there .
Therefore, is there any way for me to file the petition of " agree for divorce " at Kolkata Alipore court by refering the case number of divorce petition or what is the legal procedure ? Please guide.

if you do not conatest, if would be granted anyway
let the husband get an ex parte decree for divorce. If you have hire any lawyer instruct him/her not to contest the petition.
