Abstract:

Background: Serious Matrimonial Discords have become the major problem not only of India but almost all over the world. The number of divorce cases is increasing at every moment. Compatibility issues consist of various issues that are contributing to the number of divorce files in the courts. These issues may be clash of views between spouses and between spouses & their in-laws, use of alcohol/drugs especially by husbands, non-fulfillment of essential needs of wives and their children. Besides this, differences in educational qualification, age, occupation, castes and dissimilarities of living status among the spouses as well as their parental families lead to marital discords among the couples. These concentrated marital conflict issues affect the social, psychological and economical wellbeing of women who are involved in divorce cases. Methodology: The sample is drawn of 300 women from Patiala division who are involved in divorce cases. Structured Interview Schedule is designed to collect data. Results: 13 issues are found out of incompatibility in which consumption of alcohol& drugs is the most significant factor that is 62 per cent of total cases.
