A woman in Agra, India is filing for divorce just 40 days after her marriage due to her husband’s strange hygienic issues.
According to India Today, the man, named Rajesh, only bathes once or twice a month, leaving him with an “unbearable” body odor that the wife could not tolerate.
Rajesh confirmed that, instead of showering, he sprinkles himself with water from the river Ganga, which is believed to be holy. But ever since he got married, he’s bathed six times in 40 days due to his wife’s insistence.

Upon discovering the news, the couple started getting into frequent arguments. When Rajesh still didn’t bathe daily, the woman went back to her parents’ home, according to a family counselor.
Shortly thereafter, the wife’s family filed a dowry harassment complaint and sought a divorce.
The police intervened and spoke to Rajesh about the issue. He reluctantly said he would improve his hygienic habits, but the woman no longer wished to live with him.
The couple has been asked to return to the counseling center again on September 22 to resolve the dispute.

Earlier this year, a woman wished to separate from her husband after he failed to bring her a packet of Kurkure, a popular snack.
The wife had been so addicted to the spicy munchies that she would have it daily. It was also the topic of frequent arguments between them.
Similarly, she also returned to her parents’ house and approached the police in order to seek a divorce.
