The procedure is that a woman files a complaint before Crime against Women cell for her accusation against her husband and her inlaws for reddressal .If the complaint is not settled between the parties ,it is converted into a FIR against the husband and her inlaws. The only protection is anticipatory bail once a FIR is filed against you and your family.You can also send your version of the story of dispute in a legal notice form to your wife before she contemplate to file a complaint against you and your family.
you are request to file a restitution of conjugal rights case it will help in all case.
You can take steps for insulation against unjust harrasment by return of her 'istridhan' in the presence of respectables and get a DDR registered with the local police. Besides, if she does not have any independent source of income, you may also start making payment of adequate amount towards her maintenance.
