As per Gaurdian act of India, minor child under age of 5 years live with mother but if show some concurrent proof then court will grant custody of your minor child.

You can file a divorce petition under head of cruelty, but in every case you have to pay a maintenance to your wife until second marriage of her.

Dear
Domestic matter is filed by wife against the husband and its family for harresment and depriving the right of marriage.
while child custody case is diffrerent thing. Generally the cour provides child to her mother in case if it is below 5 years and in rest of case to his father.
