Hello Reader, You are not bound to agree to mutual divorce. Divorce by mutual consent requires your free consent, so if you do not want separation, you can refuse. Since your husband has been in no contact for 5–6 months, you have legal options. You may file a case for restitution of conjugal rights under Section 9 of Hindu Marriage Act to seek restoration of marital life. Alternatively, you can also claim maintenance under Section 125 CrPC if he is neglecting you. If he proceeds legally, he will have to file a contested divorce and prove valid legal grounds, which is not easy.
