Re: desertion

(a) you may file a case of domestic violence;

(b) You may file a complaint against him in the foreign country concerned.

(c) You may seek maintenance in India; and on the basis of the order, if any, passed by the court, you may approach the foreign country concerned for visa.

Re: desertion

I believe the best option could be to file a case under the prevailing laws of the foreign country depending on the nature of offence commited by him. Further, if possible you should also apply for a green card and pursue the matter from abroad.
