This can be one of the reasons for filing divorce. Marriage irretrievably broken down can also be used as a ground for divorce.
The Supreme Court has also in recent time held that irretrievable break down of marriage can also be a ground for divorce.
More facts are required to guide you effectively.

Dear Madam,

On the ground of residing separately for more than 5 years you may file Divorce case in India either by yourself by coming over to India or by executing Special Power of Attorney in favour of your relative. You may get Divorce if other party did not participate otherwise it may be little delayed.
