Can I separate after 20 years without FIR support?
I want to separate from my husband after 20 years of marriage. People say it’s too late and I haven’t filed any FIR, so I can’t do anything. I stayed for the children but now I’m mentally exhausted. I don’t have money for legal action. Is there any help available to get my freedom?

Even after 20 years, you absolutely have the right to separate if you are facing mental or physical torture. You do not need an FIR to file for divorce. If you are financially weak, you can apply for free legal aid. The law is meant to protect you, don’t lose hope, legal help is available.
