Bhopal: A woman recently moved to a family court seeking a divorce because her husband is busy preparing for UPSC exams and does not have time for her. The family resides in Katara Hills area of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh.

According to the counsellor, the woman alleged that there are days when her husband is so busy preparing for the exam that he does not talk to her at all. She told the counsellor that when she suggested that they go out to watch movies and do shopping, her husband was not interested in the plan.

She added that he does not even meet his relatives as he is dedicated to preparing for the examination. All these factors forced the woman to approach the court for a separation.

"The woman said during counselling that her husband remained confined to himself while preparing for competitive examinations. She said he remained indifferent towards her during their cohabitation," news agency PTI quoted Noorannisa Khan, the counsellor with the Jila Vidhik Sewa Pradhikaran (District Legal Service Authority), as saying.

The incident came to light during a family counselling session at the District legal service authority in the city.

The husband told the counsellor that he does not have any issues with his wife. He further said that it is his childhood dream to clear the UPSC exams and this is the reason why he dedicates all his time to studies.

In his session with the counsellor, he added that he did not want any more complications in his marital life.

After hearing both the sides, the counsellor asked the couple to reconsider their decision and see if things can work out between them.

The woman has filed a divorce petition in the court. The counsellor said that four more sessions would be held before the court hearing begins.

In another case, a man from Uttar Pradesh sought a divorce from his wife as she was giving him only 'laddoos' to eat. The man told the court that his wife gave him four laddoos to eat in the morning and evening. He added that she was doing this on the instructions of a tantrik.
