• How to proceed legally

Hello,

I and my girl friend loving each other from 2011. When I ask her parents they refuse to marriage. Then She scared and living with me(Living Relationship). Up to Apr 2014, she manage without knowing this process to her parents. But they fix marriage with someone. She told not interested, but they are blackmailed her (if you are not doing this marriage we commit suicide). But she doesn't like bridegroom. On 25th Apr 2014 they got married (At this time i'm not in that place, due to family reasons i'm gone to my hometown). I told her father what's going from 2011 when they refuse. There are no feelings in her faces, just take it easy and told me leave it and sorry.

She is not interested to take him as husband. so, her parents cut all her contacts (Friends, me etc.,).Because whenever she talk to me definitely she came with me, they knows. So, I want to back my girl friend and I want to marry her LEGALLY.

Then what is Solution?

Hi, only solution for you is that if your girl friend is ready to come with you, she has to get divorce to her husband and she has to marry under special marriage act. However her marriage is solemnized and she has to wait for 1 year for applying divorce and she can able to marry you only after she get the divorce from her husband.

2) dont keep any contact with her . dont send her emails and never call her .

3)let her decide whether she wants to leave her husband or not . if she divorces him then you can marry her

if you keep in touch with her and her husband finds out he will make your ex girl friend life miserable . he may even file case against you . hence call her if you want for last time that since she is married you wont remain in contact with her in future .

she should inform her husband that she wants divorce . does not want any maintenance . if her husband agrees she can file for divorce by mutual consent after 1 year . she can go and stay in her parents place during said period

Now that your girl friend is married you can marry her only if she is legally separated from her husband. Since she was married forcibly to her husband the only legal remedy open to her is to move court for divorce.

If she still loves you and wants to be with you then she should clearly tell this to her husband with the objective of ascertaining his willingness to go for mutual divorce. If he does not agree to mutual divorce then your wife should apply for divorce after a year.
