In different cases filed at police stations in the city, two techies want to dump their techie wives on the grounds that they are unhygienic. While one complains his wife has head lice, the other says he has been driven to desperation as his wife doesn’t bathe regularly.“While the husbands complained the wives were unhygienic, the wives, on their part, admitted the charges were true and agreed to change their ways,” Saraswathi, senior counsellor attached to Mahila Sahayavani, under the City Commissionerate said. In the first case, creepy crawlies rocked the boat for 30-year-old Nimish Arya* who married Kavita* (28) in June 2014. The couple who hail from Kerala set up home in Koramangala after an arranged match. Arya says on the first night itself, he spotted lice on the pillow, setting off alarm bells. Kavitha agreed to clean her hair, but things allegedly didn’t change. “Till date, their marriage has not been consummated,” Saraswathi said.In the second case, Manoj Kumar *(32), a native of Bengaluru and Mansi* (29), who hails from Kolkata, had an arranged marriage in December 2012. Manoj says he is repelled by his wife’s unhygienic practices. “Manoj has also alleged wears unwashed clothes. As a result, he cannot stand her body odour,” Saraswathi said.While Mansi too has admitted to being in the wrong, she is willing to make amends. But she has charged Manoj, his family and even the maid with torturing her.Saraswathi, meanwhile, says though they counselled both sides, the husbands just want out, saying only someone who has been at the receiving end can be sympathetic to their situation.*Names changed to protect identity
