File a divorce petition under section 13(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act before the Family Court on one of the grounds specified in the said section. Since, cruelty is one of the ground of divorce, you may contest your divorce on the ground of cruelty.

Seek interim custody of your child by way of moving an application before the the Family Court in the same case.

Hello,

You can go ahead and file a divorce case on the ground of cruelty and in the same you can ask for visitation rights of your child. Also it may be noted that it will take 5 years for the case to be decided.

Please bear in mind that you will have to prove all the cruelty that will be alleged by you in the petition.

1.There is no way one can get urgent divorce unless you make aher agree for mutual divorce.

2. If this is not possible then you will have to file contested divorce suit which would take time.

3. If you're not safe staying with her then stay separately.No force is there to compel you to stay with her only.'

4. Unless you prove the allegations mentioned in the divorce suit the decree of divorce would not be granted.

1. There is nothing such as 'urgent divorce'. If you want divorce then you are free to file a petition for dissolution of marriage on the ground of cruelty. You will have to prove your allegations in the court in order to succeed, to which end you should record your conversations with her and in-laws.

2. She can contest your petition once she receives summons from the court. It will be a trial where you will have to prove your allegations. The outcome of a contested trial is always uncertain. So do not harbour any misconception about a 'guaranteed decree'.

keeping child away from you, living separate without any reasonable cause, call police on silly matters, each time try to raise hue and cry are constitute acts of cruelty.

if marriage became frustrated in such a grave manner that there is no chance left to live as husband and wife then it is in the interest of justice to end this nuptial knot. this is observation of supreme court in catena of cases. if you want immediate divorce you can approach the supreme court under article 142 indian constitution because only supreme court has power to waive of cooling period of 18 months and grant immediate divorce.

this process is reaffirmed by the supreme court on 12 sep 2017in the case of amerdeep vs harveen kour (SC)

If you have decided to quit this married life or to dissolve the marriage by a decree of divorce, you may file a petition seeking divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty.

Let she appear before the court and either contest or submit to the decree prayed for by you.

There is nothing forbidding you from claiming child custody, however the court may not be inclined to give custody to you till the child turns 5 years of age but it cannot deny you the visitation rights until then as an interim relief.

You can file a child custody case also along with the divorce case.
