Sorry to hear about your trouble with arranged marriage, dishonest bride and criminal charges in India.

This is not a question for an American attorney. This is a matter of Indian criminal law (as you are being accused of rape and possibly some other serious crimes). You shall discuss these matters with a qualified Indian criminal defense attorney.
