It is advisable that if a man getting false threats fromhis wife, he can file a case legally. In this case you need to consult a Family Law advocate. Then you can proceed further legally to get justice for the inconvenience. It is advised that you take the legal recourse first as that is going to help you a lot in your case.

It's premature to file for divorce now as matter is still being medicated between both parties. There is still no FIR registered against you for cruelty u/s 498a IPC nor criminal compliant filled in the court for domestic violence. Moving for divorce against the wife will provoke her to move forward with the complaint cases against you and practically spoil your case. Best solution for the failed marriage is divorce by mutual consent after amicable settlement of all issues, try to work out that through mediation process with help of senior and experienced lawyer.

The mahila mandal people do not have any authority of law to take any action against you, but they really have a nuisance value. By calling the media persons they can defame you and your family by portraying your wife as a hapless victim. The media people will also come calling and give an extensive coverage to the story knowing that such stories generate a lot of TRP. You have lots of remedies under the legal framework of the country to redress the harassment meted out to you. Firstly, you can seek a stay order from the court against your wife and mahila mandal to restrain them from making any attempt to defame you. In the circumstances narrated by you, it will be appropriate on your part to go ahead and file for divorce. Your wife will get an opportunity to contest your divorce petition on merits.

Firstly, all of what you have mentioned hereinabove is just a threat. So far, there are no complaints under DV, 498A or before any Mahila organizations. Am i right? If i am, it is advisable for you to file for Divorce first as any subsequent complaint filed by her can be interpretated as a counter-attack. Once you file the case, you can inform the same to the Mahila organisation that the matter is now sub-judice.
