Dear Sir,
On the basis of adultery you can file for divorce but for that you require evidence. Secondly please tell how many years it has been to your marriage and do you have any child. Kindly abreast with the facts and circumstances of the case, and please feel free to contact the undersigned to sought any clarification.

Sir, You cannot lodge a police complaint in case your wife has an adulterous relationship as adultery is a non cognizable offence in which F.I.R. cannot be registered but instead of it, a complaint before a magistrate may be filed against that person but sir sorry to say that no action can be taken against your wife as under the provision of law she would not be liable for punishment under section 497 of I.P.C. but adultery is a very strong ground for divorce.
