The strange case reached the Bhopal family court on January 19, according to a report by Free Press Journal.
The woman said that her husband works in the IT firm and gets a good salary. She said that she too is a working woman and makes good money so going abroad for a honeymoon was not a big deal for them.
She alleged that despite no financial restraints, her husband refused to take her abroad and insisted on visiting a place in India itself.
She said he told her that he has to take care of his parents and the couple agreed to visit Goa or South India for their honeymoon and not abroad.
But he allegedly booked flights to Ayodhya and Varanasi, without telling her.
She said that it was only a day before the trip her husband informed her of the changed travel plans to Ayodhya as his mother wanted to visit the city before the Ram Mandir consecration ceremony.
She did not object to the trip then but once they returned, she approached the family court to seek a divorce from her husband.
In her statement, she also claimed that her husband took more care of his family members than her.
Meanwhile, her husband said that his wife was just making a big fuss. The couple is currently receiving counseling at the Bhopal family court.
