The divorce always is filed by one spouse against another , and on service to the other party and his/her failure to be present the case will be heard expartee i.e in absence of the other spouse. if there are sufficient grounds and evidence available the court shall grant divorce. such a divorce can be said to be one side else there is no such thing called one sided.

Contact a local lawyer and ask your mom to file the divorce. You 3 brothers can be the best witness to prove cruelty against your father. Even if your mom does not want any alimony, she is entitled for the same and she can claim along with alimony for minor children and in DV proceeding, you can claim for separate residence.

498A case FIR quashing

At this juncture and given the fact of Supreme Court ruling of 2 days back ““Nitin Ahluwalia vs The State Of Punjab on 18 September, 2025””, I am thinking to file an application in Delhi High Court to quash the FIR as the 498A case was filed 1. She filed 498A case after 4 years of Separation. 2. She filed 498A case after 3.5 years of me filing the Divorce application. 3. She herself started the Divorce wish in Canada in June 2019 by sending notice to me. 4. She filed 498A case in retaliation to my warning of Not to touch my 12 Lakh Rs. And that was within 10 days of warning. 5. She never participated in divorce case I filed and already the divorce is in effect since Nov 2024. 6. She is NRI for last 16 years and our marriage is 25 years long. Without going into the merits of the 498A case allegations, can I request High Court to quash the FIR as it has been lodged in retaliation and the sole purpose is to intimidate me and my relatives.
