It is possible to do a marriage null and void?

In India

Last Updated: Oct 11, 2024

I’m French and live in France. I married with an Indian in Hathras in India. He lives in Delhi in Tagore garden. He cheated with me and he was interested by visa and money. He created a fake wedding card, made me sign some documents to get the registered marriage certificate. We never had a religious ceremony. We also don't have the same religion, he is hindu and I am muslim and I recently learned that the marriage is on hindu act so it's not legal. Can you help me to do this marriage null and void? I cannot come to India because my father has cancer.

BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY YOU, THIS MARRIAGE IS VOID AB INITIO AND IT CAN BE DECLARED VOID BY THE INDIAN FAMILY COURT

As you mentioned, since the marriage was conducted under the Hindu Marriage Act without a valid religious ceremony and you both belong to different religions, this could be grounds for annulment under Indian law.

You do not need to travel to India for the proceedings. We can initiate the legal process on your behalf, and if required, you may attend hearings via video conferencing. Only you have to give POWER OF ATTORNEY / VAKALATNAMA to us for filing and prosecuting your case. Simultaneously, you may have multiple remedies under Indian Law. 

To proceed, we will need more details and supporting documents, including the registered marriage certificate and any evidence you have regarding the fraudulent conduct. Once we have these, we can file a petition before the appropriate Family Court in India for declaring the marriage void.

Our team have expertise in handling family law cases since 8+ years including cases related to NRI's / Foreign Citizens.
