Written statement to be filed in divorce petition

File written statement as per law. That process has nothing to do with counselling.

You must be able to file the written statement without any hurdle. Counseling/mediation is only a way for the court to check if reconciliation between the couple (applying for divorce,) is possible. If an amicable settlement can be reached, the petition would be withdrawn. Otherwise, the divorce proceedings would follow the usual course.

File written statement as adviced by Anjuru Chandra Sekhar.

Oral submission of what????

There is no limitation for time in these matters except expressly stated where you are asking for particular relief.

You can file your witten statement whenever you want before the judgement is passed.

You can make oral submissoin too as pointed by above Ld Adv.
