“A woman has to go to a man’s house after marriage,” she says. “Even after that, there are instances of physical and mental abuses. Also, when a wife can’t bear a son, the husband brings home a second wife. This forces some women to seek for a divorce.” Divorce is the dissolution of marital relations; in this process marriage is completely broken down either in social or legal context. The Black Dictionary of law has defined divorce as "the legal separation of husband and wife affected by the judgment of decree of a court and either totally dissolving the married relations or suspending its effect so far as concern the combination of the practices (1994). Divorcees are free to remarry after divorce where as separation may not allow it. Divorce is nothing and in common senses it is taken easily somewhere in which a couple ends their marital relations and starts to remarry, but it may create some vital problems in the family, like adjusting to new life.
