Dear Amit

file an application before court where the divorce case is pending u/s 26 of Hindu marriage Act-1955 for child custody.

 

or file a child custody petition before family court under Guardian & Wards Act along with Hindu Minority & Guardianship Act.

 

Contact a lawyer personally or over the phone it will be better.

The child custody case can be filed only at the place where the child is residng.  Since you are not able to life with her anymore, you may decide to go ahead with the divore case and dont give in to any pressure from her side including the emotinal blackmail holding the infant daughter as hostage.
