Filing of divorce petitioner does not, ipso facto, means that the marriage will be dissolved by way of Decree of Divorce.
Let the other party prove their allegations, the wife shall contest the matter and falsify husband's claim.
In the mean time file an application for grant of interim maintenance during the pendency of Divorce Petition.

If both parties are agree for divorce then it is better to file Mutual consent divorce after one year of marriage. If one files petition for divorce, he loses his right to file another petition seeking restitution of conjugal rights which means he wants marital relationship restored.
