aapke husband jo bhee kaam karte hai aur jaha bhee karte hai, us jagah ke records aap court direction se mangwa sakte hai. husband mutual consent divorce ke liye compel nahi kar sakta.

If you do not want a divorce, your husband cannot compel you. For maintenance from husband, you should be in a position to inform the court his income, his qualification, his place of employment and his position in his office.

I agree with Adv Goel that you are entitled to reliefs under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act.
