even if he refuses to come to india but is ready for divorce by mutual consent, you may ask him to send a power of attorney duly notarized in US, in favour of any of his friend or relative and the attorney would appear on his behalf and the divorce proceedings be completed. in case he does not agree for divorce, you may file a petition for divorce on fault ground.
