Your wife should prove she is living in detroriated conditions due to husband. If she thinks no possiblity of  patch up she must file divorce petition .

She is bound to pay a penny to husband she should stoop  immedeatly paying anything to such useless person. Why is she paying, if husband is unable to provide means to his wife and kid let him retuern the baby . The lady neeeds to wake up and mend the track which is going wrong way.

Even if she feels she don have enough money to maintain herself let her file application under section 125 Cr PC  seeking maintenance .

Better to take care of her health and forget about such useless husband .

Thanks Sohail ji for you valueble time and kind advise, 

Just one point,  in the past she did not file the divorce petition, because of two reasons, as she did not want to bother her husband and her child, and secondly she has to follow up a lot for her kidney problem, but of late her husband started emotional blackmail, and asking money from her towards their son education. Question is if she files the divoroce petition now and it becomes a contested case then how much time it could take to decide, how much chances of her getting the decree in favour of her by proving that these and these cruelties have been done to her all throughout her matrimonial stay and later years after separation.

SHe needs to be very planned and use every move wise; The contested divorce takes too much of time as her hsuaband wn't like to get dvorced. First of all she stop paying a penny towards her  husband ,

She must also file application for maintenance and claim the expenses she spent on Let her file even DV case if she feels harrased by her hsuabnd;

Just meet agood lawyer and process   now,must not waste any time.
