2)if i was to travel to india within her stay in poland can i come back direct to poland from india?
3)what precautions should i take while all this period of long stay out of uk?

thank you for ur time in advance.

If you stayed out of the UK for longer than 6 months, that may invalidate your residence card, but you may be admitted again on code1A at the UK border, You should be able to return to Poland using your residence card provided that your wife will be in Poland on your return.
