Dear Sir,
Would like senior expert advise on my case. myself aged 43 years old married in the year 1992 to Central Govt services Person aged 50 now children Male 22 years, female 16 years old respectively. Married 1992 (HINDU marriage act)
We both got separated 4 years back. due to differences (without my knowledge fixed hidden Videos, cameras in our bedroom), from then till date my husband never looked back to us or provided with any financial support nor contacted us till date. while leaving us he had taken off important valuables and we were left with all scrap. I actually dint proceed legally as I had to take care of children education, at that time my daughter was 8th standard and son Btech 2 nd year. And I didn't want to waste amounts on legal proceedings. Now that my husband is seen in our colony, I tried approaching him, but literally, he said he is not interested in any household responsibilities. The reason we parted: since my marriage, he was always doubting me, I thought it's his nature and I never made any mistake so why should i worry on this. Later things went worse and he actually fixed some videos in my bedroom, which I severely objected.. My son had a discussion with his father on this and there too my husband started recording all the conversation in mobile. Then I was compelled to approach his office in Chennai and requested them to transfer him asap, henceforth within 4 days he got transferred. Being into Indian society and culture I never did any legal proceedings. Fearing in future my daughter might not get good alliance. just a few days back when my daughter approached him and actually she was going to the hostel and before going she met her father, I was shocked to see, that she was crying and he was taking her photos on the road.
Query : 1. what sought of action can I take against his acts?
2. I don't want to go for any divorce if we are not staying together for more than 4 years, can he easily get the divorce?
3. Can I demand him for the maintenance of my daughter education, marriage and rest all.
4. My son, he is 22 years can I claim any maintenance for him, as I wanted him to pursue his masters in Abroad.
5. I have been working for a private firm.
Looking forward for your advise.
