On September 2011 I filed another petition for Custody of my daughter under Guardianship ACT. and later on she also filed false DV and Crpc 125 case against me on September 2012.

Is seems you are not concerned about the FIR against you. You must file divorce, but at the same time be open for compromise with your wife. It will be better if you compromise and file divorce by mutual consent u/s13B wherein FIR would be quashed also. To know us better, please click on the links below:
