Apply for divorce on the basis of mental cruelty; ground of cruelty is a ground for getting divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 as well the Special Marriage Act, 1954. You seem to be Hindu by religion & must be married according to Hindu rites & marriage ceremonies so you have file divorce petition under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. As far alimony & maintenance charges are concerned your wife can file an application for these during the pendency of the divorce proceedings but if she has income/ or funds to support herself she may not get these, but if she has no income of her own & sufficient funds to support herself she will be granted these depending on your income & other sources/properties as the court may find it reasonable.

You will find the jail more worse than asylum. Lead a marital life at home adjusting with wife. Harassing and subjecting the wife to mental and/or physical cruelty by husband/inlaws is an offence in India under section 498A IPC. It is non-bailable and punishable with jail upto 3 years + fine upto Rs.5,000/-. Wife's or her relatives' such acts are not an offence.
There is no concept of divorce in Hinduism. Hindu marriages are performed between their souls (not bodies) in heaven (not upon earth) in presence of 330 million gods and goddesses. Indian Government enacted Hindu Marriage Act in 1955 and created a chance for divorce to be granted by secular courts. Despite such legislations and courts' divorce judgments/decrees, their spiritual wedlock remains intact being eternal, everlasting and unbreakable even in future rebirths. Despite marriage with others after divorce, wife continues Ardhangini (half body) of her former husband and he continues her Pati Parmeshwar.
Premarital, extramarital or unwed sexual activities (intercourse / coitus) are not barred / prohibited and are no offence in any Indian law. Wife’s sexual intercourse with other/s is also no offence, hence no prosecution or punishment to her. Even her sex partner also cannot be punished, if was unaware of her wedlock or had sex with consent or connivance of her husband. However the police cannot arrest or prosecute him. After divorce also her husband is bound to maintain or pay till she remarries, even if she is permanently / continuously enjoying sex with all other/s. Pre marital sexual experiences (intercourse / coitus) with other/s cannot be a ground to seek divorce under Hindu/Special Marriage Act. Thus a female’s physical sexual relations with persons/s of her choice (with their consent) is not an offence or prohibited / barred in any Indian law and she is at liberty to enjoy SEX freely and fearlessly. A male’s physical sexual relations with any 16+ female (with her consent) is no offence or barred / prohibited in any Indian Law, unless she is in the wedlock of somebody else and is done knowing her wedlock and without her husband’s consent or connivance. Courts are bound to believe that all children born during the wedlock (or within 280 days of court's divorce judgment/ decree) are her husband’s legitimate ones. He is bound to maintain or pay them expenses, till sons are 18+ and daughters are married. Prostitution (commercial sex trade, offering sex for monetary gain) alone is an offence punishable in Indian laws.

You only have to pay alimony if she doesn't make much income, my state (Kentucky) did away with that because one of our Senators got hammered by it....funny how things get going thru legislature when it effects them.
