Mr. Suraj Kumar's profile suggests that he is having fun by posting imaginary queries.

In response to your query,
Dowry Prohibition Act, Indian law, enacted on May 1, 1961, intended to prevent the giving or receiving of a dowry. Under the Dowry Prohibition Act, dowry includes property, goods, or money given by either party to the marriage, by the parents of either party, or by anyone else in connection with the marriage. Yes you can file a case requesting punishment for you wife and her father under Dowry Prohibition Act.
File an FIR against your wife for false 498A complaint. You can also file an FIR against your wife for blackmailing or filing a false 498A case against you. Police in India usually do not favor such FIR, but if you make your case foolproof, the police cannot deny you to file an FIR against your wife.

Is it your personal case ?

you cannot because you cannot prosecute the aggrieved person based on her statements, but there is no clarity about who is the aggrieved person.
