The situation in detail is that :

Husband is abroad from past one year or so ,the police is not able to complete the enquiry as he is out of country.So the arrest warrent process has started.Dowry Section 498 A case is pending against him in Indian court.

I have lodged a Domestic Violence case 2005 in India.Summon has been delivered abroad 4 months back but he has not yet responded.

The Maintainence summon has also been delivered to him but he has not responded on that.

Now he is planning to take citizenship there only.He is still an indian citizen and indian passport holder,is only on visa sponsored by the employer.

Now please guide me that can his passport be imponded cos i he will never come to india .

You may approach the Passport authorities with a copy of FIR. You may also file an application in the court seeking impounding of passport.

i think in ur situation, more than impounding of his passport, you should concentrate in getting the orders from the court concerned viz. domestic violence complaint and once you get the order, execute the same in u.s.
