Definitely, the husband can raise the filing of False or retaliatory cases like 498A and DVC, maintenance by the wife as evidence of mental cruelty during the evidence stage of divorce proceedings . The Courts have accepted repeated legal harassment and cruelty towards in-laws as valid grounds for divorce . He must submit FIR copies, Court documents and any proof showing her Falls allegations are hostile conduct . This supports his case for divorce under section 13(1) (ia) of Hindu Marriage Act. A strong legal strategy and proper documentation will strengthen his Claim.

basically in a domestic violence case and such issues can be proved only during the cross examination and also the drafting of the suit has to be done any carefully however , family matters normally take a lots of time for setting in the courts while that while that is a primary source of delivering justice today we have alternative options like mediation if you want I can mediate between the husband and the wife to settle matter faster.
