India Man Divorced His Wife For Cooking Him Instant Noodles Everyday by Hermzou: 7:49pm On Jun 06, 2022 |
A judge in India said a man divorced his
wife for cooking him instant noodles
every day.
ML Raghunath, a principal district- and
sessions-court judge, recounted the case
on May 27 at a press conference at a
court in Mysuru, a city in the
southwestern region of India, The New
Indian Express reported.
Raghunath told the outlet he was a district
judge in Ballari when he attended to what
he called the "Maggi case." He did not
provide information on the date of the
case or the names of the couple involved.
Insider was not able to independently
verify the case.
The man said his wife would buy packets
of Maggi noodles, a brand of instant
noodles, and serve them to him for
breakfast, lunch, and dinner throughout
their marriage, Raghunath said at the
press conference, according to the news
outlet.
Eventually, the couple divorced with
mutual consent, the judge said. Under
India's Special Marriage Act of 1954 ,
divorce by mutual consent requires both
parties to live separately for one year and
agree to dissolve the marriage.
A 2018 study by the International Journal
of Management, Technology, and Social
Sciences found India recorded a divorce
rate of 11%. The same study found the
US recorded a 50% divorce rate.

While India's divorce rate is low,
Raghunath said more married couples had
been trying to call it quits in the past few
years.
"Divorce cases are increasing drastically
over the years," Raghunath said at the
press conference, according to The New
Indian Express. "Couples have to stay
together for at least a year before seeking
divorce. If there was no such law, there
would be divorce petitions filed directly
from wedding halls."
The judge added that divorces were more
prevalent in urban areas than in rural
villages.
"In rural areas, village panchayats
intervene and settle the problems. Women
have no independence and their fear of
society and family sentiments force them
to cope with the situation. But in cities,
women are educated and financially
independent," he said at the press
conference, according to The New Indian
Express.

Shubhada Maitra, a professor at the Tata
Institute of Social Sciences in Mumbai,
told the Hindustan Times last year that
increased expectations were one of the
reasons for the increase in divorce cases
in India. Women in India are becoming
more career-oriented, but many men still
expect their wives to fulfill traditional
roles, Maitra said.
"So, women bear double brunt, by working
as an earning member of the family and
at the same time also taking care of the
household chores," Maitra told the
Hindustan Times. Source: https://news.yahoo.com/man-india-divorced-wife-cooking-024436668.html Lalasticlala Mynd44
