Legal Question in Family Law in India
I am married an year ego to a man who is a drunkard. He created plenty of issues at home, my work place and office.
He has never taken up any responsibility of family.
He killed my peace, health, respect, trouble me and my parents by his habit and erratic behaviours.
However we gave him chances to correct himself, he just could not change himself even a bit in one year time of marriage.
He is a great liar.
He was in re-habilitation centre for 3-4 times and never stopped drinking.
He agrees himself that he is ready to drink and sleep on roads which he has been doing all these years(10 yr).
He does not want to stop drinking.
He does not want to go to re-rehabilitation centres.
He does not want to take any treatment.
He does not want to go for counselling.
He does not listen to anybody.
He often leaves the house for months without telling, he comes home back in a drunken state ,stays at house for 10-5 days and again goes off without any intimation... this cycle repeats again. He will not be traceable by any means for months. Every time he promises not repeat his mistakes but never retained any of his promises.
I consulted psychiatrists and they said he is suffering from personality disorder/s, normally such patients are not cured. He does not agree for any kind of treatment, counselling not even for his medical health check up.
My health got affected very badly due to the stress, tensions and problems created by him. I am just not able to continue my job nor I can leave this job and depend on my parents.
Because of him I have taken loans in lakhs for which I am still paying. He had stolen my gold and silver and pledged them.
He is refusing to return my jewels and money. He is not working and not earned a single rupee for the family.
I did not get any support from him and his family any of the times even when I was in the hospital and there was no one to look after me.
I am fed up with his erratic behaviors, mental and physical(some times) harassment, disagreements, selfishness, quarrels, abusing, etc.
I want to come out of this marriage at the earliest.
How to go about it...
Firstly , I want my jewels and money back, for which I dont have much of proof.
Whether I can get any share in his/his ancestral property ?
Can I claim for compensation to spoil my life in the name of marriage (heating) promising me so many things?
How to get rid off from him if he does not agree for divorce?
I cant wait longer as i am already crossed 35 year.

you can divorce him under the appropriate sections of the Hindu marriage act assuming you are a hindu. You can also claim your stree dhan etc from the guy. But if he is the kind of person you have described him to n=be how will you recover your jewellery??
