Want Quick Divorce? Come in...

Shop No-117,

Nyaya Marg, Canton,

Dhoomanganj, Prayagraj,

Uttar Pradesh 211001, India.

This is the banner written in front of my office and I am Upmanyu Mishra, Bsc.,LLB. I couldn’t find any scope after completing my graduation in Physics. As I couldn’t clear any job interview in Physics field for continuous 3 years. I was named as ‘Educated Saand’ by my friends and relatives. I was not ashamed because, just forcibly I took Physics as a graduation subject, I had no interest in it.

Then I decided to pursue my childhood passion of resolving conflicts between people. Due to my diligent and impeccable mastery in this, I was default umpire in many Cricket, Kabaddi and Kho-kho matches[to resolve war-like fights between two teams]. And I decided to pursue LLB. Passed and today I am and Advocate, in family matters from past 10 years.

‘May I come in?”, my office door knocked. ‘Yes please ’, I said. ‘I am Chitra Singh. I saw the board outside your office.’ And she looked down. Well this is quite common behavior in all my clients. I asked her to sit. Mangalsutra around her neck, red-bindi on her forehead, devastated confidence. It was also obvious she came in seeing the board, means she was thinking of ‘Divorce’ consultation from me.

Before she could collapse completely I asked her ‘You need water?’, she said ‘Yes, please.’ After having water, she said ‘Arun and I are married for past 6 years’. I interrupted her ‘Love Marriage?’. She looked at me as if I was reading her forehead lines accurately. ‘Yes, she said’ and continued. Initial days before marriage and after marriage were the best days of my life, I couldn’t expect anything better than those days. It continued for 3.5 years. I again interrupted her, ‘Do you work somewhere?’. ‘Yes, I am an MBA Grad and I work as Branch Manager in HDFC Bank, Prayagraj.' We both just hate each other and there is no scope I can continue further’, her confidence started rising with every sentence now. That’s bad, but I interrupted her again ‘I would like to hear from start without hiding anything’. She said ‘Arun and I studied in same class, same college, St. Stephen’s Management Institute. He used to die to see me early in the morning. Hiding from my father, he used to be at my local bus-stop by dot 7’o Clock. He used to say, his routine started early morning 5’o clock, but how to come so early, so he used attend morning 6’o clock mass, at the church near my house. ‘Arun is Christian?’ I asked her. ‘No, only thing open at that time near my house was church , so he is used to spend his time there. After spending one hour, he used to meet me at bus-stop’ Chitra said.

This continued for 2 years and one day I said to my father about him. My father was strictly against our marriage. I should have listened to those kind words of my father. I made a big mistake. And she started crying. It was difficult to see a Bank Branch Manager crying. ‘But I still listened to my heart. After college we both got jobs at far locations from our house. Initially he used to drop-and-pick me to office. He used to eat the food that I made, but as days passed, he started complaining about the lack of salt in rice, burnt roti etc etc.’ ‘Ok, then...’I replied.

He started becoming more aggressive on me, questioned me on every move of mine, started checking my phone etc . I was broken when he came drunk and raised hand on me, whom he was loving like mad. Now he has started drinking everyday. I could not sustain this anymore. ‘When do you think this all really started?’ I asked her. ‘I told you right, all this started inch-by-inch after 3.5 years of our marriage’, angrily she replied to me. I have been coming and going in front of your office and seeing tag-line ‘Want Quick Divorce? Come in..’ on the board outside your office from past one month, but couldn't gather enough guts to get in, today I have gathered all of it and come to you. I want divorce please help me.’

I said ‘Don’t worry, I am here for this only, after all its my business. 2000 Rs, for sending divorce notice, 2000 Rs, for successfully filing the case in court, 1000 Rs before every date in court and 10,000 Rs after successful divorce. This is my fee-structure. Ready?’ Immediately she said ‘Yes’. This gave me complete knowledge of how eager she was for divorce. ‘But before I proceed, can you do me a favor, can you go home today, think properly and list down 10 wrong things in you husband, for which you want to leave him. This can strengthen the case. OK?’ I said to her.
