You oppose the application stating that husband is not working and you are going on vacation during the summer holidays.

Dear Sir / Madam,

After marriage, a daughter has to live with her husband only, especially when they already have a daughter from their marriage. It makes absolutely no sense for you and your parents to shield and shelter your sister in her maternal house. For how long will this go on ? What will your sister's future be ? Court will give dates after dates, and you will be harassed by the Advocate guiding you on the divorce at the Court all the time, the ruling will never be forthcoming. Even if your sister ultimately gets divorce, will she remarry for her daughter to have a step father ? It makes absolutely no sense and makes matters worse. Think over what all I am saying, be wise, guide your sister to reconcile and compromise with her husband and her in-laws, and accept her husband and his parents the way they are and withdraw the case. That is the best solution to the issue. Just out of curiosity, it would not be out of place to find out how many advocates / lawyers guiding you on divorce have themselves had a divorce.
