1.Divorce would not be granted.
2.No
Nothing except either to wait for her or to file case for divorce under appropriate grounds of the relevant Marriage Act.

If you are Hindu then please refer to Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.


if it was inter-religious marriage then refer to Special Marriage Act.


the entire set of grounds are mentioned there in, make a search in the Bare Act section and read the details.
