u can take the assistance of women cell further for maintenance u have file case under section 125 of CrPC
instead of wasting more time, you may go for divorce by mutual consent and save your precious years. you both can decide the amount of permanent alimony and go ahead with divorce. in case he does not agree, you have a number of options viz. complaint under domestic violence act, maintenance petition u/s 125 crpc. you can also go for a complaint to crime against women cell. these authorities would compel him to appear before them.
