Why shouldn't someone entering marriage with savings, or inherited assets deserve clarity from day one rather than spending years of litigation after separation to establish what was theirs. And now with the increasing martial disputes and divorces, Indian legal system is pushed to question: Should prenuptial agreements be made mandatory in India?
