Divorce is a legal process. As we do in India it happens in all the countries of the world. Then there is China, where couples are lined up for divorce. There seem to be long lines outside the offices for divorce. Online appointments are also full. Every couple is in a hurry to get a divorce. Everyone is trying to get a divorce before December 31st.
You may be wondering why this is so. So the answer is that the first civil code will come into force in China from January 2021. Which will change the rules for divorce. Simply put, it will be difficult to get a divorce after January 2021.
According to Chinese media, there are long lines outside the divorce processing offices. The number of people coming for divorce has doubled now than before. The new civil code was approved by the Chinese parliament in May this year. Critics of the new civil code say the government has now stripped people of their freedom to divorce. The result will be domestic violence.
So far the divorce process in China has been fairly simple. She would be approved within two or three days of applying for a divorce. According to the new rules, couples seeking a divorce will have to go through a total period of six months. That is, if a decision is made in anger, it can be changed. At the same time, perhaps living together can lead to reconciliation between husband and wife.
The reason behind the Chinese government's change in divorce rules is that the divorce rate in China has been rising sharply in recent times. In the year 2019 alone, 47 lakh couples got divorced. However most people are unhappy with the changes that the government has made within the rules of divorce.
