You can file divorce on the grounds of cruelty,desertion etc.but it would be contested divorce which may takes a few years. better you file DV case as advised earlier and bring him to your terms for settlement and MCD.

1. Here he has not deserted you but you have deserted him. So, divorce suit from your side on desertion ground will not lie,

2. Rather, file a divorce suit on the ground of cruelty,

3. File application for maintenance u/s 125 of Cr.P.C.,

4. You will certainly get alimony if you get the decree of divorce on the stated ground.
