Remarriage
The Naradasmriti dharmashastra (XII 97), a Hindu law book, states: "When her husband is

  1. lost, or 
  2. dead, 
  3. becomes an ascetic, 
  4. is impotent, or 
  5. is expelled from caste, 
in these five conditions, a woman may remarry." Katyayana adds that if the husband turns out to be of another caste, or the same gotra, or if he is guilty of foul acts, the wife may remarry. Can we take these verses to suggest that divorce was allowed in Hinduism at some point of time?
