Dear Friends,
I have a specific query that when a christian husband is deserted by his wife for about 2 years can he file a suit for divorce under section 10(1) (ix) of the Divorce Act? There is no other ground for divorce. What is the remedy and procedure?
In case of any further clarification I will do the needful.

Yes u/s.10(1)(ix) of the Indian Divorce Act if the Respondent has deserted the petitioner for at least two years immediately preceding the presentation of the petition.
