you can very well do so,however you have to provide material evidence as regards to your claim that you are victimized by the act of cruelty of your wife since last 10 years of your marriage. Why you have not reacted earlier? You must come clean to the court on your viewpoints.

The supreme court has held in their previous decision that mental cruelty and continuous harassment to the husband by his wife would be the good ground to grant divorce to the husband.

File an application under section 13 (1)(a) of Hindu marriage act as cruelty to husband.
