Only precaution is get ready for bitter future for some days and everything becomes normal after sometime...See Mr. Jolly, when peoples mind is going in evil direction none can change...Now at this point of time, even if you try to convince her, she will not listen, if she would have listened you would have not come this far...Many women in marriages are arrogant and they dream what they see in serials and movies...but reality is far different from their expectation......So, they will get upset and make their husbands upset in this way....
Better prepare a complaint to your Local Superintendent of Police that you are anticipating a false 498A from your wife and in that circumstance request to direct the SHO of concerned police station to enquire into the facts before arrest and state that she is residing separately from you and file an application before Lok Adalat seeking counselling for both of you to avoid 498A and as a preventive measure....
