See , the law permits an aggrieved woman to file complaint at any place she would be residing at the time of filing of the complaint. It could be her parental place or any temporary place where she might have taken shelter...

yes initially you shall file a case of restituion of comgujal rights here in mumbai before she files any case in gujarat so that you will be standing on a positive side in front of the cpurt so even after she files any case you can tell that she intentionally doing it to harass you and nothing and after that if she doesnt come you can file a case for divorce
