It means whatever the respondent replies and states the reasons of refraining himself/herself from marital obligations; shud be valid reasons which could be the reasons for divorce or judicial separation or nullify of marriage, In a nutshell one cannot/should not give unreasonable excuses. Example 1) I dont love my husband/wife so I dont want to live with him/her ;)

2) I dont want to live with him because he does not spends time with me.

3) I dont want to live wih her because she does not cook for my parents.

ok, pls correct me if i am wrong,

it means if i apply for rcr then my spouse should revert back with reasons which must be a ground for legal separation, divorce or nullity so that she cant live separate by keeping the relation on. Means either she should join me or give me divorce, legal separation or nullify the marriage.

It does not mean that EITHER she has to join u OR give divorce or whatever. 

If you file RCR , your wife can give N number of excuses, but stupid excuses which are not of serious nature, court will discard off, only valid reasons of serious nature would be considered. Further such excuses needs to be proved, just saying is not enough, IF court does not find any reasonable excuse you will win RCR.

Even after winning court can't force ur wife to join u. After all it depends on 2 person no court can force husband or wife to live together, but winning RCR will help u a lot in getting divorce if ur wife is adamant on not coming back at all.
