My wife has filed false FIR
My wife has filed false FIR under Section 498A/406 IPC. Section 3 & D P Act, against me and my old aged ill widow mother. I am the only child and my wife and her parents are hell-bent to take divorce. She wants to remarry. Hence they told me they will withdraw the cases. If I sign mutual divorce papers but I don’t wish to give divorce. I still wish to sit and talk. I I want to sort out all the issues unlike them.
My wife has done 498a,406,dowry and she wants a mutual divorce. She is reluctant to go for contested divorce as I am not willing to give her divorce. I won’t because I wish to sort out issues and cohabit with her. I could not stay with her much after marriage as I worked out at sea. Was giving exams from Kolkata and used to stay with my old aged ill widow mother. We got married in 2018 and she took a transfer from Kolkata to Bombay and is working there. I last stayed with her in July 2020 for 2 weeks . Then from Nov 2020 she is not allowing me to come to Bombay after I had a fight with her over ph.
She used to tell me that I will call the police if u come. She behaved very arrogantly with me over phone and hurled abuses at my mother too..but then things cooled down and we started speaking last year and then also she did not allow me to go to delhi. I was on ship when she suddenly came to our house in October and went back after 2 minutes and threatened to file cases if I don’t give divorce and went and did fir.
I got the police notice in Dec end..IO also knows that she wants divorce but I am not ready to give and that’s why she has filed all these false cases. I am trying to contact her saying that I still want to stay with you and sort out the matter but she is not responding back..Do I need to give her maintenance to my wife in case she filed a false FIR and leaves her job and if she files for contested divorce? After taking bail, can I go to my work place as ours is a contractual 3-4 months job unlike hers?
Can I go and talk to her parents at Kolkata although they are also vindictive in nature and can call the police..pls suggest. I repeat I don’t wish to give her divorce even my wife has filed false FIR. I wish to sort out all misunderstandings, miscommunication by reconciliation and mediation where they are hell-bent to go for divorce. kindly advice.

Can I cancel the marriage after engagement
I want to cancel the marriage after the engagement. I met a girl on 14.01.2022 & had an engagement (roka) on 19.01.2022. I met her from 15.01.2022 to 22.01.2022. After that she went to another city (Mumbai) & joined her office. After that she used to talk very less. Several times we had issues & one day after a mild heat of argument from both sides she blocked me. After that I politely said we don’t have understanding & compatibility and it is better to call off this wedding. I also said the same to her parents too and whatever token money they have given for the marriage venue shall be paid from my side.
But, her family and she kept on threatening me. Some time they say they will charge my family for asking for dowry & mentally harassing her daughter if we call off this wedding. I never had any physical relationship with the girl. I just spent time with her from 15.01.2022 to 22.01.22, hugs & forehead kisses. Kindly tell me what are the legal actions that may be taken against me? I feel that instead of marrying, we should call off this wedding so as to avoid future complications.
