My wife has expectation that whatever money she earns from her job as lecturer in college, she does not want to spend it at all but keep saving. She expects that I should meet all household expenses.
Such things run on basis of common understanding between husband and wife.
I have been taking care of all household expenses so far, but after she filed fir and dv against me, I do not want to do so anymore but expect her to contribute from her income equally. i.e. 50/50.
If she has filed DV against you then no point in expecting a 50/50 share toward expenditure.
This is because I do not want to stash money to again file a false case against me later. I will take care of anything and everything beyond that since the expenses will be definitely be more than double her salary.
TO live together in harmony there should be understanding. To part ways via divorce, there too be need of understanding. So understanding is main need here. How well your wife understands you, how well you understand your wife will form the basis of survival of mariage.
the mediator is also taking her side on this point in the mediation thru my RCR case.
If you are calling her back and telling her share expenditure 50 50 from now on, then you are doing something illegal.
Asking money from wife amounts to asking dowry, which is a punishable offence.
If you both do not gel together, then its better you part ways, as conditions you put or she put in court of law wont help unite hearts.
Try different method called as love n affection method, here to you cannot force her to love you. All depends on compatibility.
TRy to convince her. Or just move out of mariage via divorce MCD.
A) MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION: Is my wife's standpoint legally right?
Legally you cannot ask wife to pay money for house ka kharcha. Legally you cannot ask even a rupee from her. You ask, you go sit in jail.
B) what counter argument can I give?
Nothing.

It reminds me of one recent case.
Husband not so good financially, marriage is a 6 year old one.
He was in need of money to pay fees for dotters school.
Which was 10k.
Now what happnd is, husband felt shy to ask wife to take help from her brother who is financially sound and well off. So what he did is, he asked his mom to ask his wife to get some money from her brother that we will pay later.
Now wife goes to bro, asks money. Bro is legal man [kourt kacheri police station] Immediately he goes to PS and files dowry case against sisters MIL.
My fellow advocate who was handling case had told 1000 times dont tell in box when tehy ask that you asked money to your DILto bring from brother.
Ab hua yeh.
Gita pe kasam jo khilvaadi, poor lady is 68. In box, she is standing opposite party lawyer asks, maaji aapne gita pe kasam khai he, bhagwan aapko dekraha he, jhoot mat bolna.
toh budiya ne sach boldi ki dus hajaar rupiya laane boli.
Bas case khatam. Now budiya in jail 5 year term.
Moral: Never ask money from DIL, never ask money from wife. Come what may.
