Is it coming under section 420?

dear all,

my wife accepted and admitted in evidence that she worked prior to marriage. however, to prove her salary, i filed RTI to the employer where she claimed she worked but to a surprise, the employer authorities responded to me stating that the wife never worked with them.

can i file a cheating case against my wife and her parents? who cheated me during marriage negotiations by stating that she is a working lady. will it come under perjury also?

should i file a criminal case or keep mum to save myself so that i get bettwer DVC/Maintance case judgement?

It's perjury.     Offences under perjury can be complalined against by the court in which pejury is committed.        In other words, only can that court be the Complainant.

You can however urge that court to prosecute the perjurer.

It's entirely at the discretion of that court to or not to file a complaint.

However a discretionary order is appealable unless it's an interlocutory order.      Certain interlocutory orders too are appealable.

Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code is not attracted.

Yes sir I mean the same, you can file 340 crpc application in the concerned court in which judge will take cognizance of the same, this all can be done in criminal defamation,

And in civil defamation, you can ask for compensation, but remember one thing you need to deposit court fees as per law 

and your Divorce case in maintainable on the new cause of action 

all cases can run simultaneously

Thanks,
