Yes its possible for a wife. Her husband belated after drink and no one comes for help her. Its a domestic violence catogery. She went hospital and take a medical certificate about her physical torture. After that go to court and file a suit of divorce.

Cruelty is a good ground to obtain the decree of divorce when anyone is able to prove and it wouldn't be difficult to prove it when the opposite party is a drunkard and even drinking heavily amounts cruelty and here the scope is brighter as he commits cruelty after drinking.
