Abstract [English]

Matrimony refers to the state of being married, and marriage is regarded as a deeply sacred institution in most religions that are practiced in our country today. The dissolution of a marriage is often accompanied by various taboos and is still looked down upon by many traditional members of society. From a legal perspective, family law in India, which covers a wide range of matrimonial issues, is relatively new and still evolving. While many people view the end of a marriage as an undesirable situation that should be avoided, the reality is that issues leading to divorce contribute significantly to the backlog of cases faced by courts at all levels. In this context, much like in commercial disputes, alternative dispute resolution offers a modern approach to resolving conflicts, benefiting both the parties involved and helping to alleviate the litigation burden on the courts.
