You can file an application to revise the interim maintenance order in the family court, citing your wife’s misrepresentation of income as a ground. The court will then consider the new evidence and decide whether to revise the order based on the actual income.

My wife wants a divorce because she discovered old messages from my girlfriend. We were close before marriage, and I tried to end it after our wedding. I told my girlfriend that I’d only be friends from then on, but she gets very upset if I’m not attentive. It took a long time to distance myself completely. I never told her about my marriage because I wanted to handle this discreetly. Unfortunately, the police helped her get our old messages, which include some inappropriate language. I never physically cheated on my wife, but she’s convinced otherwise. We live in Gujarat, and my girlfriend is in Kerala, so we only had an emotional connection over the phone. She’s also married with a child. If my wife files a case against me, my girlfriend’s family will be dragged into it, potentially ruining her marriage and her son’s life. I wanted to solve this myself, but my intentions have been misinterpreted. I truly love my wife and can’t imagine life without her. However, her parents are pushing for divorce, claiming this as the reason. They want a mutual consent divorce, which I don’t want. If I refuse, they’ll file a case. What are the possible outcomes of this case? Can I prove my innocence?

He’s refusing to contribute to their needs, including their son’s medical and educational expenses. Should she reach out to the Women’s Cell for guidance?
