If your wife or in-laws are demanding money or harassing you, it may amount to cruelty. Under Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, cruelty is a valid ground for divorce (Section 13). Collect evidence (messages, calls, witnesses). Consult a family lawyer to file a divorce petition or take appropriate legal action. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
