Like other contracts, the lasting of social contract of marriage depends on the understanding, adjustment and obligations of both the parties. The failure in establishing those creates conflicts and long lasting conflicts lead to dissolution of contract that creates a new product- 'divorced women' in the society. These women have to plight in the society without the necessary supports from different corners. This study attempts to find out the reasons and consequences of such dissolutions and tries to find out the remedies to minimize the sufferings of divorced women. This descriptive analytical research is conducted by questionnaire method to collect primary data from divorced women of Sylhet city. The sampling was designed in random probabilistic method. The findings highlighted the reasons on misunderstanding, failure in adjustment and discharge obligations as the causes of separation. The separation process is not smooth and justified to the unfortunate women. The realization of their dues is not justified also. The utilization of the fund for profit generating businesses, the support to build up such enterprises and the management of these organizations are not effective because of gender biased social environment. The social and legal supports should be ensured for such destitute women to make them self-sufficient and materialize a prestigious future for them and their kids.
