Such step hardly helps as this section proves to be a failure as a saviour of husbands.

498 A can not normally be proved and only it takes time.
406 is also not easy to prove.
Regarding DOWRY ACT the punishment is for both parties so if you are ready to face the heat than only you can put pressure to book others.
In Muslim marriages there are many advantages to males but you must have acted fast and earlier.
Even now there are many technical issues for which you should take assistance of an expert advocate.
