Legal Question in Family Law in India

I filed divorce case against my wife , then she filed

1. Case u/s 498a (I am on anticipatory bail)

2. Case u/s Domestic voilence.

At the time of filing the cases my wife was pregnent , she gave birth to my child while bail proceedings was going on. I took orders from court to visit hospital to see my child . After that I never met my child

My child is now 3.5 yrs

I want to file application for visit to my child on regular intervals in the case of Domestic Voilence .

Is filing of application only for visit , means giving custody rights to my wife ?

Is there any diffrence between right to visit and right to see the child.

If yes, which would be the better option, actually I want to file custody case ehen child attains. The age of 5 yrs
