No proof is needed. Woman just has to say mental harassment, dowry harassment and violence. 

Husband and in-laws can be put in jail on mere oral testimony of wife.

Kindly come back from fantasy trip before replying to any query. Court firstly order to produce PE ( prosecution evedence) in court during case.

If only imaginative allegations are the basis of conviction. All the husbands/inlaws must be in the jail till now.

Moreover in any criminal case onus is on procecution to prove allegations.

I dont think that court can punish any one for mental curelity unless it is dangerous to ones life if you have suffered that kind off cruelity you must be having some medical proof. Otherwise mental cruelity is only used for purpose of divorce.

Thanks Sidharth for your true comments. Bookish knowledge is different than practical knowledge.

Mental cruelty is used as to highlight the break in relationship so the decree could be passed. It is closet alternative to Irretrievable breakdown marriage without same name.

Most of the time these are allegation put up in written statememnt.

Unless proof is established (history of same, witness) these goes fooever he-said-she-said stuff.
