There is no fraud involved. It was your duty to make all possible verifications if you were so particular about her qualification. After marriage, causing her any kind of harassment on this ground, may create problems for you, including a jail term.

in case you can prove that the girl and her parents made you believe that her qualification is higher than what she possessed, you may go for a complaint for fraud and may also seek annulment of marriage on this ground alone.
