It has been dismissed as no party pressed for divorce. The position is same as prior to filing of divorce.

Hello,

Yes, the case is dimissed due to jon appearance of party.
You may file restitution of conjugal rights case if you want to live with her. Otherwise you both may file fresh mutual consent divorce petition.

Due to non appearance of parties case was dismissed, if you both are interested to get divorce then you both may file again fresh petition u/sec 13B of Hindu Marriage Act and may prey to court to waive cooling period six months.
