In India instead of seeking for divorce there one more provision which is less grave than divorce. It is called 'Judicial Separation'. Indian Family laws are framed in order to protect the sanctity of the marriage. Judicial Separation is an opportunity given to introspect the troubled marriage. After one of the court's decree, this can become a ground for divorce. I have written an article to explain this concept of law please visit us- http://www.legalpublic.in/judicialseparation/
