The concept of marriage in Hinduism is that it is sacramental. Marriage is an essential sanskara, a woman is incomplete without husband, and a man is incomplete without wife. Once performed, it cannot be dissolved. The modern perspective is that it is a civil contract and can be dissolved.
One case recently made the law books of India and is used as an example of "Actual Desertion". Jagannath vs Krishna - Wife became a Brahma Kumari and refused to perform marital obligations. The case was held up as desertion under Section 13 (1) i. (Actual Desertion). See: Hanumant's Law Journal.
Another family broken by the 'End of the World' chasing Brahma Kumaris.
Of course, there are many such case ... it is only of interest in that it seems to have become a legal precedent.
Divorce is almost totally unheard of in India but not in the Brahma Kumaris some of whom have even known to be divorced twice, such as Dr Hansa Raval of Texas. Once from a lokik husband and once from a Brahma Kumari Brother.
