Legal Question in Family Law in India

I got married 7 months ago. My wife is pregnant and she has left my home before 1 and half month without any reasonable cause, it was a normal wear and tear of marriage life. There was no dispute between me and my wife. it was between my mother and my wife. it was my wife who was mentally harrassing my mother. As a husband i tried to explain her but she does not listen to me. My mother is doing all the work of the house and my wife does not work at all even soft work also which could be done by my wife that work also my mother has to do though my mother did not even speak any word against my wife and did not even inform me that my wife was harrassing her. it doesn't mean that my mother does not understand that my wife is pregnant. Actually my mother-in-law is creating a problem in our home because my wife does exactly what her mother say. When my wife left my home before that night i explained her but next day in the morning she was telling me that i want to leave this house and she called up her parents at my home and i also called my mama. My mama explained her and got convinced but than my mother-in-law took her daughter in a room and than said that we are taking our daughter and at the time of leaving my mother-in-law and my wife was telling me that we will abort the child though my father-in-law is having a compromising attitude but he could not speak before her wife he also follow her wife. My mother-in-law has spoiled the relation with her three brother and three sisters and also with the neighbor. Even the people of their street are also knowing that it is the fault of both mother and daughter. Almost 1 and half month has been passed but there is no reply from their side. And i personally feel that it was all organised activity it was pre-determined because since from our marriage my wife was telling me that we can't live together even when there was no dispute at all. Earlier also my wife left my home due to very minor problem, at that time my mother-in-law agreed that it was fault of my wife. I would like to inform about few of the factors which are considered while deciding the child custody. There are certain factors which could be in my favour such as Financial Security, Educational Background, Social Status etc. so i want to know that can i get the custody of my child?

in case you feel that it is your mother in law who is responsible for the rift in your matrimonial relationship, you can communicate with your wife and try n convince her to think of her own life instead of spoiling her own life along with yours and the child. in case you able to convince her, you can get both your wife to be born child. otherwise you may also file a petition for restitution of conjugal rights and you may get her back.
