and even during that time the Respondents family dint care
for daughter nor supported me in taking care of the their
daughter or the child rather they were busy fighting for silly
reason I dint distribute sweets at hospital but they were so
ignorant that it was covid time and Hospital had clear
instruction to maintain social Distance and not to distribute
sweets and also there were many restriction on visiting at

some professional issue which he was accused wrongly
committed suicide and on the same day the Respondent
became unconscious in this situation also I rushed the

when doctors told that the Respondent was acting and it put
me into great mental agony.
17. I further state that there was a ritual organized on the
16th day of the Demise of my father which was to start early
in the morning by 7 A A:M but the Respondent as usual dint
wake up early nor participated in the ritual and also started
fighting that I dint invite the respondents parents to take
food and also started abusing me and also started
blackmailing me that she will commit suicide this behaviour
of the Respondent made me go into mental turmoil where I
has just lost my father a few months ago and the
Respondent and her family was fighting for silly reasons
rather than supporting me in this tough time.

18. I state that on 18th Jan 2023 3rd month ritual was
organized regarding my fathers demise even during that
time the Respondent did not participate in any of the ritual
nor did any work and also she was being very rude to my

mother and sister with intention to instigate them and start
fight in front of everyone so that she can separate petitioner
 from his parents and go separately which was her plan all
since beginning. I further state that when she started
abusing everyone and thing went out of control petitioner
tried to control the Respondent but the Respondent and her
parents behaved very badly by abusing them in filthy
language and also physically attacking me and my mother
and sister and also they caused physical damage to property
by throwing stones. This behaviour has put down the
Reputation of me and my family in his neighbourhood.

matrimonial home and with her parents to her parents
home and while leaving she took her all jewellery and some
cloths. I further state that on 30th may 2023 the
Respondent again came to my home in my absence and
started abusing my mother and started throwing things and
also abused the old aged grandmother of and when I came
back and was shocked to see the Respondent in that violent
condition and without any option had to call 100 and when
police came the Respondent started to argue with them also
and without any option police asked everyone to go to police
station and with lot of efforts also the Respondents dint calm
down and she left with her parents while Respondents father
threatened me with life and limb and told that the he would
never let me see my child’s face ever nor send the daughter
back and if I tries to visit them he will do something very
bad to me, this behaviour of the Respondents father created
apprehension of life threat in my mind as such he could not
meet his child.

20. It Is submitted that the conduct of the respondent

clearly amounts to cruelty and that the conduct is that it
cause a reasonable oppression in my mind that it is harmful
and injurious to live with the respondent. The respondent
always use to emotional blackmail that she will commit
suicide.

21. I come from a religious family having good education

and softly spoken. But the respondent even though she was
educated she had no manners to conduct herself but always
screamed at me irrespective of the place, situation and
circumstances which put Ito great mental cruelty.

22. I state that persistence abuse and insults hurled at me

and my parents have imperilled my sense of personal
safety and mental happiness.

23. The matrimonial matters are of delicate humane and

emotional relationship and it demand mutual respect, trust
 love and affection. Which the respondent refused to give me.
As such it is not possible for me to live with the respondent
because she always threatens me that she would file a
dowry harassment case, kill herself, put the reputation of me
down in the public, and threatening that she will go to media
and put the me down.

24. The disrespectful attitude and behaviors of the

respondent , use of foul and abusive language to me and to
my parents, respondent often picked up quarrels with me
and disturbed his mental peace, this conduct of the
respondent amount to cruelty me. From the conduct of the
respondent it is established and inference can legitimately
and reasonable drawn that treatment of spouse is that
causes the oppression in the mind of petitioner about his
mental welfare, as such the conduct of the respondent
amounts to cruelty.

25. I state that the relationship between and the

Respondent is irretrievable broken because of non-
cooperation and hostile attitude of Respondent I was
subjected to serious traumatic experiences which can be
safely termed as cruelty, the Respondent declined her
discharge her duty of mother and inflicted mental agony on
husband .

26. I further state that the Respondent has made baseless

allegation against me which constitute cruelty. The
Respondent has withdrawn herself from matrimonial home
without justification abstaining from sexual relationship
without any reasonable causing mental cruelty to Petitioner.
The Respondent has indulged in character assignation
depicting me a person of dishonest and greedy people have
lost faith in me and stare at him with suspicion which has
ultimately lowered the prestige of me and his family.

27. I have lived with my wife without a single moment of

peace and she has not shown any love and affection or
compassion except hatred, agony and cruelty towards me. I
also submits that as I am under immense mental pressure,
the Respondent has treated me with utmost cruelty that it is
no longer possible and conducive for him over all well-being
to continue in matrimony with the Respondent hence the
petition for divorce.
28. The cause of action for the petition arose on 30Th
August 2020 at Sri Karthika Kalyana Mantapa,Bangalore and
