Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 13 sets out grounds for divorce under the HMA. Section 10 concerns judicial separation, section 11 void marriages, and section 15 remarriage after divorce. Divorce by mutual consent is separately provided in section 13B, but among these section numbers 13 is correct.

Current law: For persons within the current Uttarakhand UCC’s scope, divorce grounds are now in UCC section 25, with mutual consent under section 27. The state Code commenced on 27 January 2025; that does not change the HMA section identification.
