In 1930, the British govt arrested 17,000 women for their involvement in the Dandi Yatra (Salt March).
During 1937 to 1947 (10 Years), they arrested 5,000 women involved in the freedom struggle.
From 2004 to 2006, the govt of India arrested 90,000 women of all ages under 498A. On the average, 27,000 women per year are being arrested under this flawed law. These are stats from the NCRB.
The family of the writer was tortured by the Indian Police in an attempt to extort a huge amount of money by holding them hostage. They were held in custody for over a week. The police, in cahoots with the magistrate and the PP, could do this due to the ridiculous allegations made by his embittered ex-wife. She filed the 498A years after the last time he and his family had last seen her.
This blog was started to combat the abuses perpetrated in the name of laws meant to protect women, such as S.498A of IPC.
It is the corrupt officers of the Indian police force who are the main beneficiaries of this extortion racket. In a sense, this blog is a component in the larger battle against corruption in India.
This is about raising the awareness of Indian citizens about their rights so that the police can be shown their place and the law can take the course it is supposed to take.

A)File RCR aginst her & mention the condition which she cannot fullfill for coming back .
B) File 498 case against her .
C) File theft case against her that she is taken jewellary.cash from the house ,threat to death give by her parents.
d)Prove that she is well qualifed to earn her livehood ask court under section 24 to show her previous details educational background in case she give wrongs information then you can file under under Indian Penal Code sections 388 (extortion in the name of false prosecution), 506 (threat to life) and 34 (criminal conspiracy with common intention) ,sections 285, 389, 506 and 120 (B) of Indian Penal Code that deal with extorting money, criminal intimidation and criminal conspiracy & 423 IPC Dishonest or fraudulent execution of deed of transfer containing false statement of consideration
IPC : 463( Forgery for filing information), IPC :464( Making a false document )
Most important thing as she has filed the case under IPC 125 when ever you have trial say in court you need her back (As you have already filed RCR and even mention term and conditions) and in case she is not ready to come back then you can ask her to live in shelter home aproved by Govt. where she can live free on cost and medical care is also taken care off free of cost and you are ready to pay Rs 500 per month as her personal expense .court cannot denie it .
d) file case under IPC CRPC340
if she file case under 498A file a case to her/family members say that under criminal idea act they have give you dowary without demanding under section dowary act .
belive me she will be on your feets .
