The question is whether you want to bring ur wife back to ur home? If yes, then first of all, you contact a lawyer and send a legal notice for restitution of conjugal rights through ur lawyer and demand ur wife to come back and join ur company.. If ur wife doesn't come back or sends u a negative reply, then you may file a suit for restitution of conjugal rights and bring her back.

Hi, it is advisable to settle the matter amicably with talks as legal proceedings will worsen the situation.. If nothing works out , you should register a FIR against them for beating you under section 323 and 506 IPC for causing hurt and criminal intimidation..

Dear Sir
RCR is Restitution of Conjugal Rights filed asking wife to return home

If you have filed application for RCR it indicates that your desire that you want to save your marriage and you want your to wife stay with you.

If inspite of  court orders your wife refuses to stay with you then it shows that you are sincere in your effort to save your marriage.

The domestic violence and dowry cases  filed by your wife would be more an after thought.

Inspite of court orders she refuses to stay with you, then you can file for divorce.

For the present it would be advisable for you to remain calm and do not take any legal action on this.

It is not the right time to agitate or to quarrel with them or to take any legal steps against them.

You may wait for at least 6 months period  so that the child also grows a little and then decide about taking her back by filing a RCR petition before court if the things are not improved until then.

Your anger may jeopardize entire efforts.

Firstly since you and your wife are staying separate file a suit for restitution of conjugal rights asking your wife to join the matrimonial home. Secondly also seek visitation rights to see the baby weekly once from the court and also if they threaten you again lodge a police complaint for assault and criminal intimidation against her brother and father. Send a legal notice asking her to join your matrimonial home.
