If you have made up your mind to end the matrimonial tie then file a case for divorce on the ground of cruelty committed and perpetuated on you. Simultaneously you can also file a case for maintenance against him. A husband may have to beg or borrow but he cannot escape the legal obligation of maintaining his wife.

Ashish Sir is right.
If reconciliation is not happening & he is not ready for pay maintenance, not regretful of his misdeeds, file DV case against him narrating all the torture you have gone through and seek maintenance through the court. You can also lodge FIR against him and get him arrested.
As its Criminal case, he has to appear before the court and contest the case regularly (may be 2 or 3 times a month), If he fails to appear the court hearing or fails to pay monthly maintenance, he can get arrested. (He may get bail on application). During the course of litigation if he mends his way and approaches you for settlement, then negotiate with him and settle the dispute.
