Yes. She can. She is entitled for maintenance If she is unable to maintain herself. She can file under Domestic Violence Act or Sec 125 of Criminal procedure code. Better to find a good lawyer and take along wedding card with wedding photos and marriage certificate of any while consulting. Please make a synopsis of all incidents from the date of marriage and take it with you. It will be a good start and you may not miss any details while explaining yourself to the lawyer. Good luck

Yes, you can also seek for an alimony at the time of filing a divorce petition. And since you have a year old baby you can also seek a monthly maintenance amount for both you and your baby. You need to prove your physical and mental harassment as a ground for divorce.
