You are in Police Service, so you might very well know that how criminal case proceedings are held.

Firstly, you can do nothing except defending the criminal case filed under sections 376, 420 and 120 and under dowry prohibition law.

If you want to get her back in your life, then you can file a petition of restitution of conjugal rights under section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.
Or
If you feel that she will never come back in your life, then you can file a petition for divorce.
