Women divorce under Muslim law

Can women initiate the process of divorce under Muslim law considering her husband married for a second time without any prior intimation & thus never communicate with first wife for last 2 years?
She has one son and two daughters.

She can file a divorce case under section 2 of the Dissolution of  Muslim marriage act, 1939 if he has more wives than one, does not treat her equitably in accordance with the injunctions of the Qoran;, but second marriage itself cannot be a reason for divoce.
