Hi Shirisha

Yes, you can. Your husband's attitude / behaviour amounts to "desertion" even you are sleeping on the same bed, which may constitute a good ground for divorce. This may also constitute mental and emotional cruelty. Your may also be entitled to other reliefs under the domestic violence laws.

However, you need to talk to him and find out if (a) he may have any problem with you; or (b) he may be suffering from some mental or physical problem thereby incapacitating to have sex; (c) his libido is gone. You also need to find out if he is having sex elsewhere?

if you can prove total impotency of your husband and that he had concealed the fact from you then you can get divorce. otherwise file a petition on cruelty ground.
