depending upon facts of your case, you can go for mutual consent divorce and decide consent terms amicably.
You may seek appropriate remedies under the Muslim Women (protection of rights on divorce) Act, 1986. You may also seek appropriate remedy under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005.
yes u can get your stridhan and a lumpsum amount if u go for mutual consent divorce ..
