Ma'm you can file a petition before Family Court for getting divorce under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Section 13(1)(i) and Section 13(1)(i-a) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 provides grounds for getting divorce when a person keeps sexual relationship with anyone except spouse and treats spouse with cruelty. Such spouse can file petition for divorce on these grounds. During the proceeding for divorce, you can get monthly allowance/maintenance or also lumpsum amount as one time settlement of maintenance. For domestic violence, you can separately file domestic violence complaint before Magistrate.
