Hi Respected lawyers I got married in 2014 january but our married life lasted only for 2 months. My wife filed many cases including 498a against me. All these cases are going on in court and many mediations were held and in all those she and her family insisted that she will come forward for a mutual divorce only if i pay her 25 lakh rs which i rejected. So cases are going on for more than 2 years now. Last week i came to know that she got engaged and her marriage will be held in April next year. So my doubt is is it illegal to get engaged and even fix the marriage date before getting divorced ? Also can i file a criminal case against her and her parents ?. Will this help me in getting the divorce without paying any compensation ?
Thanks
Ajay
