you are required to first attend the Mumbai Court and defend your case.

you can file a case for maintenance under section 125 crpc and claim damages

you are required to immediately attend the divorce case once exparty divorce is granted then it will affect your maintenance case.

you just appear in court on 8th August, give the apllication for legal aid, you will get free adv. from legal aid, u can also demand alimony in same, or you can file another separate complaint agaist him for alimony or others
