Grounds of dissolution

The dissolution of marriage under section 10 of the Divorce Act, 1969 applicable to Christian marriages, provided ground for divorce can be that willful refusal by the respondent/wife to consummate the marriage and the marriage has not therefore been consummated, on this ground you can seek for divorce.

There is no time limitation for filing for divorce under the Divorce Act as in the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 where you cannot file divorce within one year of marriage hence you can immediately file for divorce on this ground.

As far her declaration falsely about her caste and that she ceased to be Christian after being declared Hindu SC in her certificate, this cannot be of much help to you as the Indian Christian Marriage Act, 1872 provides under section 4 that at least one of the party has to be Christian for getting married under the Act in the Christian form of marriage, which you are even if we consider her as Hindu SC, hence you marriage will not be invalid.

Marriage has been solemnized by girl relative marriage registrar ..but he has not send the documents to register office until now..marriage is not registered officially since 8 months..
