what is the case that she has filed against you?? in DV act she cannot make you a party if you are not residing in the shared household. Pregnancy is not a disease that makes a person mentally unwell. Filing cases against each other at this stage wont help. It would be better if the parties went for mediation. That would be possible if there is any litigation pending in the court. For further query contact 9312411481.

First approach the police where they will call you and clear your picture before police/ women cell and still they harass you then you may file any case.

Good luck.
