U file adiviorce petition in competent court of law. Serve her summons. If she consent then divorce will be easy.

You may take help of elders of your family, competent and experienced well wishers, seasoned PIP’s, helpgroups, community leaders, NGO’s, experienced colleagues, associations, etc to resolve the matter and save the marriage or end by MCD on amicable/reasonable/accepted terms and/or  find a very able LOCAL counsel specializing in concerned filed of law e.g; Family/Succession/Civil matters as in your case, and well versed with LOCAL applicable rules, precedence, latest judgments etc …. and worth his/her salt, can advise you and even help you.

Online discussions are not substitute to in person discussions with a very able counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in concerned field of law.

There are such very able counsels at each location.

Check for such counsels at LOCAL e.g;, Family/Civil courts, HC, SC …

 

Your counsel is to guide you if matter can proceed on PoA or Ex. Party…
