I am a government servant earning salary around Rs. 25000 p.m and married a girl after having an affair of nine years. Before marriage I specifically told her to leave her job. She is also a service holder in a public corporation earning a salary of Rs.10000 p.m and has the benefit of GPF and pension. After lot of discussion she agreed to the proposal but sought one month time to leave the job. She has given her consent in writing.
I loved and trusted her very much and also gave her a sum of Rs.1,80,000 at her request just before marriage. The amount was paid through six different A/C payee cheques. Out of this she invested Rs.80000 in fixed deposit in her own name. But just after marriage she denied to leave the job. Her father also warned me with abusive words regarding leaving of job infront of her and she was completely silent. He also told me not to go his house and did not keep any communication with me.
She started non-co-operation in the house with me but was very much cordial to my parents. She also portrayed a bad image of mine to her own relatives. She started lying and also made negative remarks to my parents against me. Sometimes I also used abusive words to her because of her false statements, tempering truth and adamant attitude.
One day she left the house with five months child and leaving separately for last one year in her relative’s house. She spent only 14 months with me after marriage. Now she widely disseminated the news of physical and mental torture among her relatives, office colleagues and also in her micro society. She has shown some marks in her fingers and legs also. Regarding torture she has one medical report also. After leaving my house she has taken one month leave from her office on medical ground. Her allegation is against me only and till now not against my parents.
My parents and other relatives went to her place several times for negotiation but they were not interested to discuss anything. But they also did not protect them see my little child. . They used to tell that one day she may go. Now she is not mentally prepared and they can’t force her. They also did not talk about divorce. They did not file any police case or court case in last one year. They also did not come to enquire the matter or made any phone call for reconciliation. I sent ten registered letters for coming home back and inform me about the condition of my child and allow me to visit her. But she did not give any reply. But she has signed the A/D card. I sent money order three times of Rs. 2000 each but she returned the money. I gave one account payee cheque of Rs.20,000 which she did not encash.
I could see my own child only once in last one year but my wife did not come and talk to me.
