This study examines the societal and psychological impacts of divorce in urban India through a gender-comparative lens. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research surveyed divorced individuals across various Indian cities, analyzing how gender roles and societal expectations influence post-divorce experiences. The findings reveal significant gender disparities in economic stability, emotional well-being, and social support systems. The study highlights how traditional gender roles continue to shape divorce experiences in contemporary Indian society, suggesting the need for targeted support systems and policy interventions to address gender-specific challenges in divorce situations.
