Husband has to file for non-consent divorce under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act (I assume husband is a Hindu) and will have to prove his case.
Generally alimony has to be paid but it depends upon the facts and circumstances of each case.
Re: divorce
the husband can avoid payment of alimony to his wife only if can prove that she has her independent sources of income sufficient for her living; OR that she has been living a life of adultry.
if you can establish by cogent and sufficient evidence that the wife is guilty of "cruelty", you may succeed in seeking divorce on this ground.
The best method would be mutual divorce by amicable settlement of all disputes.
