This document summarizes a research study on judicial dissolution of marriage (divorce) in India. The study analyzed data from 250 divorced individuals in Karnataka, India. It found the major causes of divorce were unwillingness to compromise, dissatisfaction with spouse, poor communication, and quarrelsome behavior. For women, the most common reason divorce was granted was cruelty, while for men it was mutual consent or desertion. The study recommends greater efforts for marital counseling and reconciliation by courts and society to help prevent divorce. It also stresses the need for a holistic, multidimensional approach to address the issues related to rising divorce rates in India.

An interpersonal relationship is a strong, deep, or close association or acquaintance between two or more people that may range in duration from brief to enduring.
This association may be based on:
inference,
love,
solidarity,
regular business interactions,
some other type of social commitment.
Interpersonal relationships are formed in the context of social, cultural and other influences.
The context can vary from family or kinship relations, friendship, marriage, relations with associates, work, clubs, neighborhoods, and places of worship.
They may be regulated by law, custom, or mutual agreement, and are the basis of social groups and society as a whole.
DIVORCE AS A SOCIAL PROBLEM
When a married couple can not live together comfortably the dissolution of marriage is called ‘divorce’.
Divorce ratio is higher today then compared to rates just 15 years ago: The causes of divorce vary from couple to couple but the research done on the causes of divorce by different researchers shows that
1) Lack of communication: is one of the leading causes of divorce. The divorces often happen when people rarely discuss their expectations in details and are less willing to work on their marriages and would like quick solution rather than having to resolve issues.
2) People who come from divorced homes are more likely to get divorced than people who come from happily married household. divorce seem less like a big deal if one has seen his parents go through with it:
3) People who get married between the ages of 23-27 are likely to stay together, than people who get married in their teens:

Predicting Marital Satisfaction among Indian Muslim Women: A Phenomenological...AJHSSR Journal
Societal stability and development depends on stable and secure families, thus societies need to
understand and foster marital satisfaction. This qualitative study is the first of its kind to consider marital
satisfaction among the particular socio-cultural ethnicity of Indian Muslim women. The purpose of this
phenomenological study was to understand the factors affecting the quality of the Indian Muslim women‟s
marital relationships. Semi-structured, face-to-face, in-depth, qualitative interviews were held with 27 Indian
Muslim women from Mumbai, India. The study analyzed the relevant constructed meanings that emerged from
all interviews and clustered them into themes in an attempt to reach an in-depth understanding of factors in the
marital satisfaction and experiences of Indian Muslim women, including trust, commitment, respect,
faithfulness, communication, companionship, positive relations with in-laws, forgiveness, shared values and
financial security. The analysis of the collected data in this study provides a rich description of Indian Muslim
women‟s lived marital experiences and an identification of factors that influence their level of marital
satisfaction. The conclusions of the study indicate that Indian Muslim women are generally satisfied with their
marital life. An analysis of the data collected provided the basis for future research on this phenomenon as well
as some implications for couples, Islamic religious leaders, and marriage counselors working with this
population.
In every society in the world, certain level of participation of male in reproductive health exists It depends upon many socio-cultural and value related aspects. In India, situation is different may be because of traditional and cultural aspects. This study is based on empirical field based data, published in Communicator.

The Influence of Gender Role Attitude on Marital Conflict Among “Gerji Condom...Ashenafi Tesfaye
Traditional marital gender role attitude is prevalent among married couples at Gerji Condominium residents.
Age, sex and education significantly influence the gender role attitude of the residents.
The relationship between gender role attitude and marital conflict is statistically significant.
This means couples with traditional marital attitude are more prone to conflicts as the role expectations and inability of realizing that usually leads to conflict.

This research study intends to explore the educational and social considerations of spouse selection preferences of people with and without special needs. This study was quantitative in its nature and survey research design was used. The population of the study was the students from four universities in Lahore city. Sample of the study delimited to four Universities, University of the Sargodha Lahore Campus University of the Punjab, University of Lahore & University of the Gujarat Lahore campus Total 98 students were selected through convenient sampling. Researchers have used self-developed questionnaire for data collection. Researchers have personally collected the data. Descriptive and inferential statistical procedures were used to analyze the data. Findings of this study reveals that youngsters prefer to marry in the age of 21-25 years with the age difference of 4-6 years of their spouses. Educational considerations, personality traits and same religious background were the top preferred features of the spouse selection criteria. People with special needs prefer the spouse selection considering the above characteristics plus of disability of the same nature. People without special needs not prefer the spouse with disability.

In Pakistan, there is no comprehensive study about the preferences in spouse selection of males and females so there is need to more work on broad level in terms of spouse selection preferences.
Pre-Marital Counselling and Marital Conflicts among Christian Couples in Same...paperpublications3
Abstract: The purpose of the study was to establish the relationship between pre-marital counselling and marital conflict among Christian couples in Sameta Sub County, Kisii County, Kenya. The sample size of the study was 400 respondents based on total population of 8000 married couples in the study area. Descriptive, correlational and cross sectional research designs were used. Structured questionnaires and an interview guide were used as research instruments. Data was analyzed using both descriptive (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and Pearson correlation and multi-regression analysis. The findings showed that premarital counselling and marital conflict among Christian couples were significantly associated. Dimensions of premarital counselling i.e., communication, financial counseling, sexuality and biblical counselling are significant contributing factors that control marital conflicts in the study area. The dimensions (in-laws), parenting and, anatomy & physiology were not significant contributing factors to marital conflicts in the study area. The implication of the findings is that there is need to step up and encourage young people aspiring to get married to undergo premarital counselling so as to mitigate marital conflicts.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

ABSTRACT Families today are being challenged with numerous changes and problems. Without a doubt, divorce rates
are high today. These high divorce rates may be used to support the conclusion that marriages may be worse off today
than at any point in their history. It is possible that divorce is more common today because distressed married couples have
access to better alternatives than they did in the past, and because the costs of terminating a distressed marriage are fewer
today. This article has been prepared based on the descriptive/diagnostic study which investigates the Judicial Dissolution
of Marriage i.e. Divorce. The researches aimed at finding the causes for the divorce, the psychological condition of the
respondents, study the post divorce life of the respondents and suggest social work intervention for better adjustment of
couples & divorced persons. The sample size consisted of 250 divorcees from five taluks using Stratified Random Sampling
method. The result shows that there is a greater need for marital and familial counseling, which should include Sociologists,
psychiatrists, and social workers, doctors and religious leaders. Courts as well as other agencies must make better and
greater efforts for reconciliation. In other words, holistic approach is needed both by the government and society.
Keywords Marriage, Divorce, Judicial dissolution, Social Work Intervention
INTRODUCTION
Marriage and family are ancient institutions and around them
have grown up deep and powerful sentiments and traditions.
Family is the institution which forms the basis of every other
institution on the face of the earth. This important institution
is formed on another institution, namely, marriage. In most
societies marriage is considered as a permanent union. We
come across many passages to support the view that mar-
riage is union made by God himself and hence none should
break it. In the Holy Bible it is written: Man must not sepa-
rate what God has joined together. In Hindu text is, still more
intense view is expressed. For a Hindu, marriage is a sacra-
ment and hence unbreakable. It is a union not only for this
birth, but for all the births to come; in other words, immortal,
interminable, eternal. In spite of all these data and slogans
supporting the indissolubility of marriage, there are factors,
internal as well as external, working to undermine the stabil-
ity of marital ties. Such a situation is termed as marital malad-
justment or disharmony, which may be manifested in various
forms, divorce being the final.
Divorce ‘represents the end of the hopes that two people had
for each other; it is the certificate that their relationship failed’.
The concept of divorce may be understood as different from
such terms as (a) separation, (b) desertion, (c) annulment.
Divorce is a way of dissolving a legal marriage that permits the
partners to remarry if they choose. Divorce involves the recog-
nition that marriage has irreparably failed and that at least one
of the partners has no desire to continue the marital relation-
ship. Total dissolution of the bonds of a valid marriage is what
is now generally meant by divorce (Krishan Arora, 2006)
The estimated national figure for divorce in India is as high as
6 to 7 percent. However, there are no exact figures available
for the number of divorces as many are handled locally and are
registered differently by the various states. Some studies have
indicated that in the small towns, semi-urban areas and cities,
the number of divorces is definitely increasing. Numbers in
divorce petitions being filed by young couples at family courts
have grown significantly, especially by women (Sethi, 1989)
Methodology: A total of 250 respondents were selected from
the five Taluks of Dakshina Kannada District, Karnataka through
Stratified Random Sampling technique. A descriptive and di-
agnostic design was used in the study. A 125 item interview
schedule was prepared, pretested and used for data collection.
The respondents were explained the purpose of the study and
ensured of confidentiality. The data collected was coded, tabu-
lated and analyzed using SPSS and statistically tested.
Results and Discussion
The socio-demographic data showed that 70% of the re-
spondents were between the age group of 30-39 years.
However, when we see separately the data of male & fe-
male divorcees highest frequency (36.8%) of the female
respondents fall under the age group of 30-34 years and
highest frequency (53.6%) of the male respondents fall
under the age group of 35-39 years.
Vast majority of the respondents were having more than
secondary education. Out of it 3.2% of the male and 7.2%
of the female were postgraduates. Female respondents
were better educated than male.
42% of the respondents were private employees. How-
ever, when we see separately highest frequency 39% of
the male respondents were self employed and 46% of
the female respondents were private employees.
Highest percentages of the respondents were from mid-
dle class families. As majority of the population in Dakshina
Kannada belong to Hindu religion, majority (68%) of the re-
spondents were from Hindu religion and among that highest
frequency of respondents belonged to Gowda Community.
Majority of the respondents belonged to rural commu-
nity. Highest percentage (54%) were from rural families.
When we see separately 83% of the female respondents
were from nuclear families and 73% of the male respond-
ents from Joint families.
In majority (92%) of the cases marriage was performed as
per religious rights.
The study result shows that the major cause of divorce
is Unwillingness to compromise. There were 194(77.6%)
respondents who felt this way. Second in importance
was not satisfied with each other 135(54%) respond-
ents. This was reacted to by poor communication of the
spouses 131(52.4%), Quarrelsome disposition of spouses
119(47.6%), Ego between partners 95(38%), Interference
by third parties 91(36.4%) respondents respectively. An
interesting feature in the finding of this study concerned
financial causes and urban- rural differences as elements
in divorce. Only 38(15.2%) of the respondents felt that
the problems of finances can lead to divorce. Money usu-
ally is a measure of power, influence and status. But mon-
ey is a measure of value and it is sometimes perceived
as the root of all evils. A rich man may use his riches to

destabilize his family. This may take the form of keeping
chains of women and/or marrying many of them.
IIn Judicial Dissolution of Marriage ground on which the
court sanctions the divorce decree is an important factor.
In this study 29.6% of the cases of divorce was granted
through mutual consent. In the other 70.4% cases the
grounds for divorce were either of the one which was
specified in the Marriage Acts. 15.6% was of adultery,
13.2% was of cruelty, 10.4% was of desertion, 5.2% was of
impotency, 5.2% was of non restitution of conjugal rights,
0.4% each of impotency and religious conversion and
13.2% of other causes. When we take the male and female
cases separately in 36.8% of the male respondents the de-
cree was granted on mutual consent followed by deser-
tion (17%) and adultery (15%). However, in female highest
frequency 24.8% of the cases the decree was granted on
cruelty from the side of their spouse. It was followed by
mutual consent (22%) and adultry (16%) of the cases.
Contrary to what prevailed earlier, more women are
initiating divorce proceedings. The society seems to
be accepting the fact that divorcees need companion-
ship. An increasing number of women are now hoping
to click with someone online. For example, as reported
(Hindustan Times, February 17, 2008), seven per cent of
all registered women on jeevansathi.com are divorcees,
as against four per cent of all male users.
Vast majority (54%) of the respondents of the present
study lived in nuclear families. 43.2% of the respondents
belonged to joint families and the rest 2.8% were be-
longing to extended family.
Areas of Intervention
Divorce is frighteningly common in the world today, yet few
people understand the true reasons couples opt to dissolve
their marriages. A common misconception about divorce is that
infidelity is its most common cause; however, infidelity is cited
as a factor in 20-25% of divorces, while lack of intimacy is cited
by 80% of couples as the main reason for divorce. Another com-
mon misconception is that couples that argue often are more
likely to divorce; however, research findings suggest that it is the
way couples behave during arguments rather than the number
of arguments that leads to divorce. In light of the damage di-
vorce does to individuals and society, it is important that people
understand the factors that contribute to divorce as well as the
best ways to prevent it. An estranged relationship can always
be revived with the interference of close friends and relatives.
But the present day nucleated families are not that fortunate
enough to get the opportunity to reconsider their marriage un-
der the presence of close family members.
The global divorce rate is increasing alarmingly. Govern-
ments of various countries including India are taking up nec-
essary steps to reduce the rate of divorce and to save mar-
riages. Surveys and studies are conducted across the globe
to infer the exact reasons for breaking down marriages and
families. The awareness of the concept of living in a healthy
and close knit family is the probable solution to lessen the
increasing rate of divorce.
Divorce is nearly always really a tragedy, for it generally
means disorganization of the personalities concerned and
of their children steps must be taken to mitigate such ten-
sions in the early stages by various means such as proper
education of the spouse before and after marriage through
literature, family counseling agencies, courts and services af-
ter divorce.
Divorce is more widely accepted and less stigmatized today
than it has been in the past, but it still tends to be viewed
negatively and is often blamed for many individual and soci-
etal problems. Opposition to divorce also has legal and po-
litical implications as efforts surface to toughen divorce laws
and make it more difficult for couples to obtain divorces.
Public and scholarly attention also needs to be devoted to in-
terventions designed to educate and better prepare divorcing
adults-parents and non parents alike for stresses, transitions, eco-
nomic responsibility and difficulties, and co parenting challenges
they will face in a variety of post divorce family forms. The chal-
lenge is be to we begin the new millennium will be to explore
these and their inventions as ways of normalizing divorce, facili-
tating healthy adjustment, and embracing family diversity.
Although the vast majority of divorcing couples somehow
manages to get through these various stages, there is a small
proportion that gets stuck in the process and fails to maneu-
ver through the stages. Typically, these couples lodge in the
transition stage and never get through it. Disorganization of
the family does not end with divorce or desertion. This crisis
is the final outcome of the long process of family disorganiza-
tion. But is final in the sense that it represents a formal break
in a previously intimate relationship. Both husband and wife
have to adjust to the new and strange circumstances. Thus,
many consequences follow from divorce.
For some, the divorce does not solve the problem of unhap-
piness and dissatisfaction within the marriage. Leaving the
marriage brings similar or increased frustration, pain, and
unhappiness. These feelings may occur as the person, living
as a single, experiences deep loneliness and despair, or, as a
remarried person, finds that the next marriage or marriages
simple recreate the problems in the original one, with all the
frustration, alienation, and anguish still present.
Some spouses who are left after the mate chooses divorce
never regain their composure. They sink into a chronic state
of depression, laden with feelings of self-pity, worthlessness,
and anxiety. They feel permanently burned or afflicted with a
broken heart, and they withdraw from most social contacts.
They may become chronically physically ill, alcoholic, drug
dependent, or suicidal. They may become chronically debili-
tated psychiatric patients. They may no longer have the ca-
pacity to function as adequate parent figures because of their
depression. In some cases, unfortunately, they discontinue
contact with their children because such contact all too pain-
fully reminds them of the lost marriage. These persons have
popularly and validly been labeled “divorce flame-outs,”
having indeed lost their spark for life.
Conclusion
Divorce could have a significant and life-altering impact on
the well being and subsequent development of children and
adolescents. Divorce is multidimensional and it involves mul-
tifactor social events. It can be found in each and every soci-
ety, which may be either in customary, or in legal form. Basi-
cally it occurs easily within more open and industrial society.
It is emerging a form of new sociological events due to the
pattern of socio-cultural changes by the process of moderni-
zation and simultaneously urbanization. Single causal factor is
not responsible for dissolution of marriage. Different natures
of dissatisfactions between the spouses are affecting due to
the personal, familial, social and economic condition or struc-
ture. Therefore, it should be treated under the multidimen-
sional approach basically in the reference to contemporary
changing socio-cultural pattern. There is a greater need for
marital and familial counseling, which should include Sociolo-
gists, psychiatrists, and social workers, doctors and priests.
Courts as well as other agencies must make better and great-
er efforts for reconciliation. In other words, holistic approach
is needed both by the government and society.
