Did you not mention anything in the divorce petition? usually when two parties own the property, we ask for release of one person's share to another. If you have taken the loan as husband and wife, you have to inform the bank that you have taken divorce and then the loan should be transferred to your name only. You need to get the Release/ Relinquishment Deed executed but your wife might ask you some money for it.

Dear Sir,
You have to tackle the situation carefully otherwise she may file a case under the provisions of Domestic Violence Act and Court may pass an order restraining you from entering your own house. It is better to get legal advise from a senior legal expert and take future steps intelligently.
