What to do if wife is refusing to live with husband?

Sir, I got married 4 days ago, but my wife insults me everywhere. She wants me to pay for her expenses, such as trips to Bali and gold jewellery, but she is not ready to live with me. When I object, she talks about divorce. I am a government employee. What should I do?

Your marriage is only 4 days old. If your wife is refusing to live with you and making unreasonable financial demands, maintain proper written records of communication. Do not rush into divorce. Try counselling or mediation first. If she refuses to live with you and keeps threatening divorce, send a legal notice and consider Section 9 Restitution of Conjugal Rights under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.
