Since your husband is not willing to give divorce, you need to file a contested divorce petition in the Family Court. Grounds available include desertion (he left you for more than 1 year), cruelty, and irretrievable breakdown of marriage. Since he has been away for 1 ½ years, you can proceed under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act (if the marriage is treated under Hindu law) or under the Special Marriage Act if it was registered there. If both agree, mutual consent divorce is faster (6 months approx.), but if he does not agree, contested divorce may take longer. You should consult a local family lawyer immediately, file the petition, and request interim maintenance/reliefs for yourself and your children.
