You must live continuously in NJ to file for divorce here. If you lived in NJ before your husband "sent" you back to India, you may still be able to file upon your immediate return to NJ if your India trip is considered a vacation or holiday.
Regarding what to do in India, seek an attorney in India or the police for the return of your papers.
