she has left you only 1 month back . write to her suggesting that both visit a marriage counsellor to resolve their disputes . if counselling fails then decide your next step after consulting your lawyer . dont take any hasty decision for filing for divorce . wait and watch for 6 months

for filing divorce it is necessary that there should be one year of marriage.You can start the proceedings of section 9 HMA for restitution of conjugal rights.and if does not come on this then you can file suit for divorce after one year.do not wait you can start with section 9 application ,and if she has to file the cases mention by you then she will file,forget about that just focus how you can secure your self

Your marriage can still be retrieved out of rough waters. Do not show tearing hurry in applying for divorce. Try to iron out the differences by visiting together a marriage counsellor. If no reconciliation is forthcoming then you may apply for divorce at any time.

If FIR is filed by her then you will get sufficient opportunity to contest her case. As of now involve a marriage counsellor. Better sense might prevail on her. If it does not then you may file for divorce.

Dear Querist

If you have decided for divorce then file a divorce case before court but think about the reason it should be strong because you can file divorce case on cruelty basis and not on desertion.
