Advise required, please!

r If your expecting such false complaints from your wife or her family members, better you avoid visiting her house, if you visit there will be every chance of lodging compliant of Under section 498A of IPC and Dowry Act to harass you.

If you still interested live with her, better approach any advocate and file petition for seeking order/direction from court  conjugal  rights under Section 9 of Hindu marriage Act.

Better take the help of the police people , as they are already advised you, go to your wife place and bring her.This is the best safe method.

@srishaila,

As my wife is staying in a different state/jurisdiction, can a police personnel from my local police station accompany me to my wife place?

I m sure you are not seriously thinking of living with your wife again, particularly when your relation with her has come to such a stage that you need an entourage of police and local seniors to visit her! 

If she is not willing to live with you, no court can force her to do that. Unless you are doing these things as a tactical move to strengthen your case for divorce, it is a very bad idea indeed. If she does not want to live with you, respect her choice, and find a partner who will feel happy to live with you. Try to negotiate with ur wife for a mutual divorce, otherwise both of will will get embroiled in at least 3-4 years of legal battle, and spend several lakhs of Rs, and lose complete peace of mind. 

If she does not agree, go for a divorce on cruelty and desertion.

It is obvious she would be in rejection mode.  When someone is in rejection mode they like to do the things that we don't like.  So file for judicial separation.  It will put her to discomfort in two ways.  If she accepts for it, it hurts her ego to accept what you propose.  So she will be at discomfort accepting it.  If she rejects it and contests, then you say to court, "as she does not want judicial separation let her come home.  If she comes home I will drop these proceedings in family court for judicial separation". That will also put her to discomfort.  If she does not come you will get decree of judicial separation from court. 

if she accepts judicial separation, how does it benefits me? Will I get divorce after one year of judicial separation?? please advise!

Yes they will come, provided you have to give some money.

Section 13(1A) of Hindu Marriage Act.

(1A) Either party to a marriage, whether solemnized before or after the commencement of this Act, may also present a petition for the dissolution of the marriage by a decree of divorce on the ground-

(i) that there has been no resumption of cohabitation as between the parties to the marriage for a period of 5[one year] or upwards after the passing of a decree for judicial separation in a proceeding to which they were parties;

.............

Hence you can get decree after a period of one year of judicial separation if cohabitation does not resume. You don't have to pay any money other than maintenance if she applies for.

If the wife has decided not to stay with you, no one on this earth or even the God will be able to convince her to come back.  please stay come, just do not go in person or with anybody else as she might then implicate all of you in a false criminal case....you only told that she banged the steel cupboard door *and got injuries, u still have faith in her...The last optiion you can do is send a letter or legal notice asking her to rejoin you...

@anamika,

thanks for your advice. 

I had already sent letters (by regd post). They came back as 'Refused'. Even through Mediation center of Legal Services Authority, two letters were sent, but she did not come.
