INTRODUCTION

The most significant institution in human society is marriage. It is a common occurrence. The foundation of human civilization has come into the picture because of marriage. New social ties and reciprocal rights between spouses are created through marriage. When children are born, their rights and position are established. Marriage is considered a sacred institution in Indian society. It is the very foundation of a stable family and civilized society. It gives status and security to the parties and their offspring.

When two individuals are married to each other, they bring in different thoughts, opinions, different interests, and goals into their relationship. These interests, goals, and opinions will not be stable throughout their married life. At some point in time, the interests, thoughts, opinions, and goals of these two individuals do not match and they may become repulsive. All these small conflicts will grow to an extent where it may lead to disagreements among themselves which may finally lead to matrimonial disputes. The attitude of these two individuals towards each other, the disagreements among themselves may further lead to differences among each other and may also create hindrances in solving their disputes. These disputes not only occur because of the differences in their thoughts, opinions, and interests but it is a series of circumstances that will create high damage to their relationship.
