Legal Question in Family Law in India
I got married in the yaer 2009 and its been 16 months since our marriage. My wife left the house without intimating anyone and she is not in touch with anyone. She has got a job and and she is living with her friend. Dont know where she got a job and where is she living. She is also not speaking to her parents nor to me. She has left a note that this marriage was a force marriage and she dont want to stay with me.At the time of leaving home she wrote a letter that she was not happy with me and i harrassed her, which is not true. We did not had any physical relation since our marriage. What options do i have now? Could any suggest please.
If I apply for restitution of conjugal rights can my wife or her parents file for a false 498 case.

We cannot answer your question but the chances of your wife or in-laws filing for false 498 are high.
you need her address for filing restitution of conjugal rights. Further filing restitution case doesn't mean that your wife will not file 498A
You may seek annulment of marriage on the ground of non-consummation because of her non cooperation.
