Hello,

Sit down with the wife and her family as to what do they want out of this relationship. If they are willing to end then you can not force her to stay with you. You may settle the matter by paying some amount and for mutual consent divorce.

Dear Client,

Low sperm count is a very common cause of sub fertility or infertility in couples and low sperm count does not necessarily prevent pregnancy from occurring and there is a lot you can do to improve your chances of getting pregnant.

Low sperm count is not permanent and can cured by life change and healthy diet. it dose not comes under impotency.

Relax no court relief or reparation.

1) You have to take certificate from a Doctor that you're not impotent and you can prove that by way of IVF or normal love and affection. And produce that same certificate to them. This is legal proof from doctor side whenever you produce in the court.

Dear,

You are already in depression because of your work,

now if you take family tension, not good for your health.

So talk to them and their demand and go for mutual divorce.

1. Your wife can file a petition praying for annulment of your marriage on the ground that vital fact was suppressed from her by you while availing her consent for her said marriage with you.

2. If she can prove her allegation, then she will be entitled to get the annulment of marriage.

3. If you do not have erectile dysfunction, then only having lesser sperm count than the average will not entitle her to get the decree of divorce on the ground of your being impotent.

If she does not want to stay in matrimonial relationship with you, then you can negotiate with her for jointly filing a mutual consent divorce petition on agreed terms which will be decided within 6 & 1/2 months from the date of its marriage.

The remedy for impotency is divorce or annulment of marriage.

They cannot claim compensation for this since you were not aware of this complication before marriage.

In fact it was your duty to reveal the facts of your pre-marriage mental health condition to the bride side.

If you do not want to continue the marriage you can file a contested divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty.
