you would have to sumbit her salary slip in court and prove that she is working . you would have to put an application under sec 191 and 195 r/w 340 Cr.pc since she has falsely deposed under oath and the court would have to take action .

Hmmm,

 

What applications from your side is pending, and what applications from her side are pending, unless there is an execution petition pending, they can not withhold arguments, the court can proceed w.o their arguments.

Its disheartening to know that girls are fearlessly making false statements in affidavits/under oath. There is no more fear of Sec 340, 191 etc as courts rarely take cognizence of this.

One reason is that these contempt proceedings are to be initiated by respective court only, at the end. U act as whistleblower. Judges do not want to increase their own headache. Otherwise urs is a right case of 191,193

In ur case, u have produced Solid Proof of her earning, u will taste success sooner or later.
