1) since she is earning more than you she wont get maintenance .
2) if you file for divorce it may take years for petition to be disposed of .
3) better to file for divorce by mutual consent .
4) if your wife files for 498A against you and your parents obtain AB from court . most of 498A cases are false . if your father is convicted he would lose his job
file for divorce by mutual consent as it will save your time and money
It is not a cakewalk to put an innocent in jail. The courts are still there to protect liberty of an individual. She can file a false case of dowry harassment and physical abuse against you. If and when she does that you can obtain bail from court and then contest her case fittingly through your lawyer.
1. She may demand moon from you. It is for the court to decide what amount of money is to be given to her. Since your wife is earning Rs.7200 and your own income is a meagre 1200 she is not entitled to get any alimony from you.
2. Nobody can tell beforehand how long it will take for the court to decide the case. The courts in India are reeling under a huge backlog of cases due to an abysmally low judge-population ratio, due to which disposal of cases takes longer than it takes in other parts of world.
3. Since your father is a government employee he may be suspended or dismissed if he is arrested in pursuance of charges being brought against him.
4. It will be in your interest to divorce mutually.
If she leave the job for make the demands huge then what will happen?

1) if your wife leaves job she wont be entitled to maintenance . it is well settled law that if wife is earning or has been working in past she cannot claim maintenance particularly so when your income is only Rs 1200 per month
2) you have to gather evidence that your wife was earning Rs 7200 per month .
Well if she leaves her job just to claim alimony on the higher side then you can bring this fact to the notice of court whereupon court may take judicial notice of it. Your income is too meagre to give any financial support to her. The court may not fasten any obligation on your shoulders. On your part you should prove that her income was 7200 INR per month.
