Is it not necessary for filing rejoinder - maintenance

Wife's lies have been exposed by husband on her employment status. All throughout  in her divorce petition ,wife had been lying to court that she is a housewife, however husband has submitted crucial evidences that she is working related to her employer/working details to court. Now is the wife not liable to file her reply to husbands counter claims and evidences that he has submitted to Hon'ble court on record. She n her lawyer are silent. Now the interim maintenance hearing will happen soon. Wife is likely to still deny that she is working as husband has not been able to get her actual income proofs like bank statements. 

 

Is there any section/rule wherein the husband can file an application asking wife to file her position/ reply on husbands claims, without which the court should not take any decision. How would the Hon'ble court take position on this ? Husband is going to file application for appointment of Court Commissioner anyways. But there is a possibility that the court might not consider the same and give decision (considering biased laws favouring women).  It is important for husband to get wife's reply on record to file perjury later or for further proceedings in the court.

Even if there is no written reply by wife, the court will notedown what is her say in the case papers, take certified copies of case papers, and her deposition copy will definitely be there in the court papers, what she deposes before court is a proof of her lies, on which basis you can file perjury. Eitherways once she is in court, she is caught in her own web.

Have seen many posts asking to file perjury. But there aren't any citations where opposite party is punished. Contrast the court has actually noted that both husband and wife lie in maintenance petition and court doesn't do anything
