Hello
I am Hindu & Permanent Resident of Canada.
I got married in 2009 under Hindu Marriage Act in India.
It is been more than 2 years we got separated and decided not to re-union. No kids
I tried for Mutual consent way of divorce long ago but it did not work out.
We already exchanged all belonging and ornaments on stamp paper duly notarized in presence of witness from both side one year ago. She was also presented on that event and signed stamp paper on receiving of all her belongings and it was also mentioned on stamp paper that that we both should not consider as husband and wife any more.
But i think based on that stamp paper i cannot legally marry to other as she can always challenge it.
I got my uncontested divorce decree from family court of Canada on ground of one year of separation.
She never been to Canada so as per my information my legal Canadian divorce decree will not be considered valid by Indian Govt/Law.
I want to know from all seniors to look in this situation and advise me on it.
(1) Is 2 years of separation is good enough to consider as ground to get me legal divorced in India family court without any hassle and in less time?
(2) What will the situation if i changed my religion from Hindu to Muslim / Christian to dissolved this relationship legally? What and where is the best way to do this conversion of religion (in India or in Canada) if it is feasible option for me? What are Pros and Cons of this way ?
Your valuable advice will be much appreciated.
