I want divorce but wife doesn't

Generally application for Restitution of Congugal Rights is filed but I see no reason to have a resort to it.

You can apply for contested divorce.     But, before that I suggest that you should apply for judicial separation.      It's safe for you but you can't take a second wife.     Your wife is not strange and you can't expect a better wife.       On the contrary, it's quite likely that you'll get a worse wife.

Mutual Consent Divorce in this case means surrendering to the whims and fancies of the wife.

" how it is possible to take mutual consent"

The answer is given in my above Reply.     By meeting her demands.     She may demand your entire property.

Restitution of Conjugal Rights is not a proper solution.      She doesn't want to live with you.     She won't give you divorce either.     This's the game played by many wives.

Unfortunately women are at better convenience in leading separate life than men thanks to the gender-biased laws and gender-biased people, especially men.

Even then the best option for men is judicial separation pending divorce.     They'll save themselves from Sec 498A, etc.

She'll agree to live with you in response to Restitution of Conjugal Rights because, if she expresses her unwillingness, she'll be deprived of maintenance.    So she'll return.    She'll take revenge.    She'll involve you in criminal cases.     She may even complain that you raped her.     These're the times for women.

Judicial Separation is quick.     She won't have any chance of sending you to jail.     You'll thank her.      Let it take thirty years in Courts.     You'll have to pay simply interim maintenance which will always be less.

It's very difficult to avoid the meaningless maintenance thanks to gender-biased laws.

The only draw back is you can't marry another woman.     In my opinion, this's a blessing in disguise.     You won't be tied to the apron strings of the wife.

I don't advise you to refain from adultery.      But be careful.     Take extreme precautions for saving yourself from the ogresses who enjoy s*x and immediately cry, " Rape ". 

You can file RCR.

You can attempt for MCD.

Rest IT shall be certainly appropriate to involve elders of the family, competent and experienced well wishers, mediators and try to resolve without litigation…

If all efforts have failed IT shall be appropriate to get proper legal opinion from a very able LOCAL senior counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in Family  matters and well versed with LOCAL applicable rules/laws/personal laws that apply and having successful track record…. and worth his/her salt..by showing case related docs and giving inputs in person.

Your counsel shall examine all docs, records, inputs and advise you properly on merits and chances of success………. And also hazards of retaliation from OP and counsels of OP.

One should not initiate litigation on impulse.

Your counsel and well wishers can help to conciliate, arbitrate and try to bring the parties on table to resolve the matter.

If your matter land up in court then remember court shall decide on merits and evidences..and IT takes time and money to be in courts.

One should not approach courts empty handed.

One should gather irrefutable evidences and draw strategy for legal fight.

If litigation is the only recourse then one should fight lion hearted and with from plan and on basis of irrefutable evidneces..

More so in the light of latest ( few days back) judgments that are favor of fairer gender ...

Dear Sir

There's no way to tell you for living a normal life.

People shortsightedly complicate their lives themselves and opt to live miserably.     Men don't live and don't let live.     Women live but don't let live.
