Wife deserted us 6 months back: Not giving divorce


13-Mar-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi My wife deserted me & my daughter 7 months back. She left the house all of a sudden and without any reason . She is asking for 25 lacs to sign the divorce papers and threatening me that she won't give the divorce unless i pay her this amount & she will ruin my entire life. I am sorry i can't afford to pay any alimony . I want to move on with my life. But not sure, how ? Please answer my below questions :- 1)Can i file the divorce based on the desertion grounds ? 2) How long will it take to get the divorce, given the fact that my wife is not cooperating and is not willing to give me the divorce ? She just wants to stay separate so its ruining my life. 3) My daughter is 5 years old. My parents too care of her since her birth. And my daughter wants to stay with my parents only. Can my wife still get my daughter's custody? I want to claim my child's custody based on guardian law.

Hello you can file a contested divorce if there is no consent for a mutual divorce before the court on the ground of cruelty and desertion. Regarding child custody court look into the welfare of the child before giving custody however if child is below 5 years usually custody go to mother in other cases it can be to father or mother depending on the case circumstances
