Adiyen have heard in multiple upanyasams by our Swami that Vedas don’t have a mantra for divorce.
Enpani: 294, 419 speaks about divorce
Enpani: 1144 speak about remarriage
Vikram Swami,
adiyen came across these texts from Manu Smiriti. adiyen is not qualified to explain them and will seek out guidance from senior bhagavathaas and our Swami for an explanation of these verses.
विधिवत् प्रतिगृह्यापि त्यजेत् कन्यां विगर्हिताम् ।
व्याधितां विप्रदुष्टां वा छद्मना चोपपादिताम् ॥ ७२ ॥
vidhivat pratigṛhyāpi tyajet kanyāṃ vigarhitām |
vyādhitāṃ vipraduṣṭāṃ vā chadmanā copapāditām || 72 ||
Even after having accepted the maiden in due form, one may repudiate her, if she is blemished, or diseased, or corrupted, or betrothed by deception.—(72)
—
प्रोषितो धर्मकार्यार्थं प्रतीक्ष्योऽष्टौ नरः समाः ।
विद्यार्थं षड् यशोऽर्थं वा कामार्थं त्रींस्तु वत्सरान् ॥ ७६ ॥
proṣito dharmakāryārthaṃ pratīkṣyo’ṣṭau naraḥ samāḥ |
vidyārthaṃ ṣaḍ yaśo’rthaṃ vā kāmārthaṃ trīṃstu vatsarān || 76 ||
If the husband went abroad for some sacred duty, he should be awaited for eight years; if for learning, or for fame, six years; but three years, if for pleasure.—(76)
—
मद्यपाऽसाधुवृत्ता च प्रतिकूला च या भवेत् ।
व्याधिता वाऽधिवेत्तव्या हिंस्राऽर्थघ्नी च सर्वदा ॥ ८० ॥
madyapā’sādhuvṛttā ca pratikūlā ca yā bhavet |
vyādhitā vā’dhivettavyā hiṃsrā’rthaghnī ca sarvadā || 80 ||
If the wife is a drunkard, or false in conduct, or rebellious, or diseased or mischievous, or wasteful,—she should be superseded.—(80)
Srimate Raamnujaye Namaha,
Swami yes there are verses like what you have quoted..which supports remarriage of men..but are there verses where the women can get remarried?
There seems to be very little evidence for that..if there are any kindly share. Dhanyosmi.

Thank you for responses. Adiyen not sure how this thread will turn out.
ShAstrAs say wife & husband should not be seperated even for Job nimitham
I read in Ranganatha Paduka
