What can be disadvantages for a wife if she files 498a


18-Sep-2023 (In Divorce Law)
met this guy through a matrimonial site and he convinced me for marriage.Since iam 35,i told him before marriage only that i will not be a working wife&focus on having a family, Upbringing the kids. So i will depend on him financially. He promised me to give me 10000rs every month. Since marriage, he started misbehaving with me with no reason. Abusive language for me n my family because he was not satisfied with wedding arrangements& gifts. Doesn't take me out anywhere. Keep me in the house and satisfy himself whenever he wants.Doesn't give me any money. I feel cheated.what can be my steps. I can't stay with Him

As you are a legally wedded wife of the person mentioned above ( your husband) if you are not happy then you can file a CAW complaint against him for harassment and torture u/s 498A. in the mean time you can file a case for maintenance under section 125 Crpc and get an interim orders passed.

Look, prior your marriage, he promised to give you Rs.10000/- per month was your internal matter. At present and after your marriage, if you suffer ill acts from your present husband, then you lodged written complaint against him and after it you can claim maintenance from your present husband for yourself from the Court.
