sorry to say but you can't marry again as long as your first marriage exist irrespective of your wife is living with you or not. First you need to get divorced from your wife and then you should plan for second marriage otherwise you will infringe the Indian law and may be punished by court of law.

no without divorce your marriage will be illegal you can apply for contested divorce since your wife is not ready for mutual divorce if you are able to prove that she has deserted you for so many years you will get the divorce what's your jurisdiction...

Without getting divorce from your wife following due process of Law, you are not entitled to marry again. If suppressing the fact of subsistence of first marriage, then it will be a penal offence under the Indian Penal Code, 1860, as amended up to date and second marriage will be of nullity.
