It is her duty to live with the husband. Why she is not ready to live with the husband, the reason is to be known.

There is no cause of action at all.

I have been married to my long term girlfriend since last 4 years and its consummated. I'm 25 years old and she is 24 years old. Before that we were in 4 years of relationship, overall 8 years. We registered marriage at thane court, and stayed at our respective homes without informing anyone. And waited for the right time to come. On 10th July 2015, We eloped from our houses and disclosed it to our parents. Her cousin contacted me after that and assured me that he will arrange our wedding grandly and took her from me the very next day. Till the time her dad don't know about our wedding and all this was they saying. And her mom knows all. Now they are like saying our girl is strong manglik and you will die after six months kind of thing, we are maharastrian and you are south Indian how will guys cope up with each other. There are alots of negativity in your relationship n all. Now my family is ready to accept us but issues are from her side. Even the girl is also saying the same as their families that her parents should be convinced. My family has tried talking to them but they didn't get convinced. They are not at all allowing me to meet her and only calls that too on his cousin's phone once a week. I'm very much disturbed with this situation. The girl is saying "if my parents don't agree then we will apply for divorce".

But i had a doubt that her dad is aware of all the scenario and likewise he was aware of all this situation. On 3rd August, they called up my family for meeting and my wife simply said "Mujse galti ho gai hai, muje usse sudharna hai, So muje divorce de do.". In return i asked her to talk to me privately, her parents didnt allowd me so. Then they asked me for mutual divorce and i refused. I want to talk to my wife privately. Is it possible? and above all they are threatening me of false 498a case. What can i use as evidence in order to tackle them. I have photographs of our marriage, letters written by her to me, hangout chats, Whatsapp and text messages of her cousin with me, all call recordings after she left me. Hence i want to know, does it count as as domestic violence if go to my in-laws house and talk to my wife against my In-laws

Problem being serious in nature, you have the need to make personal discussion with some local lawyer to chalk out a course of action right in time.
