What is the procedure of filing a Divorce inIndia?

As the subject indicates, we both live in Quebec, Canada. I (PR, Indian male, 42), since December 2018, and my ex (French, but now a dual citizen of Canada as well). We got married in Kerala in April 2017. Our relationship has ended and we wish to complete the legal part. I would like to know what the procedure is and whom to contact. Thank you

You can file for divorce without the other's consent, usually on specific legal grounds such as cruelty, adultery, and others. Your lawyer will draft a petition detailing the grounds for divorce, including any evidence supporting your claims. The court schedules two hearings (First and Second Motion), usually with a 6-month waiting period in between. After the second hearing, the court grants the divorce decree.
