Though facts are not sufficient to constitute cruelty, and in case you really want to go for divorce, you may have to manipulate. Medical or psychological illness is not enough to convince the judge. About false cases of dowry or violence, yes she can file and you have to defend. But don't get yourself extorted or black mailed through that. Many judgements are in favor of husband in such cases now
