Legal Question in Family Law in India

divorce

I have applied for divorce in 2003 and we are separated from January 2001, I have applied for divorce on the ground of mental unsoundness and cruelty. I don�t have evidence to prove her cruelty and mental unsoundness. Since I am separated from 2001, can I get divorce on that ground?

Can my relative, cousin brother and sister�s will helpful in this case?
