In short,
Yes. You can immediately proceed to file a case for divorce under grounds of cruelty and also proceed with initiating action under the Domestic Violence Act. It is important that you keep all evidence with you in order to proceed and build a strong case. It will also depend on whether your husband has any property in his name that you can seek in order to claim maintenance.
However, this can only be discussed once the full details are there.
