Sir
I would suggest you first settle the 376 section proceedings pending against you by applying for quashing for fir by consent in high court u/s 482 of crpc. then after the matter is quashed by the high court. then you can talk to your wife as to what are her views on the matrimonial relationship. depending on the then prevailing circumstances you both can apply for mutual divorce before the concerned authorities if you both do not wish to continue the marital tie
