If you have been living separately for a period of more than 10 years, you can file a petition for mutual divorce under section13-B of the Hindu Marriage Act or you can file a case for divorce under section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act as this is a valid ground for obtaining divorce.

Dear ma'am
You have to file a case and the court will serve notice to your partner and same is procedure of law.
Hence after filling, your partner will be aware that you are seeking divorce.
Secondly as you are not cohabiting with your partner for past 10 years, hence you have a strong case. Kindly share your case to enable me to advice you further.
