You have to insist on the case to go ahead by moving the matter in the incharge court.you have not mentione your place and state where you have filed the Petition.

You may need to pay maintenance even after divorce, unless you settle for "permanent alimony" under section 25 of Hindu Marriage Act.
Mere filing of divorce does not mean you may succeed. Therefore, expediting may not help you.
