Here is the context: Wife filed PWDVA and case going on, I am hopeful to quash it as most allegations are frivolous and may be disproved by the evidence I have. Most allegation are like husband failing to take care of her, etc. That means if her story does not qualify as fit for DV, it would be even more unmaintenable with respect to the cruelty punishable u/s 498A. Correct me if I am wrong here.
Now wife is filing 498A. As I understand it has 2 aspects - dowry transaction and cruelty. My question is about the cruelty part. I think for her story to qualify u/s 498A (I am talking about her own version), she has to radically alter it from the descripttion she put up in DV complain. Will it be maintenable if she puts a completely different story in 498A ?
