Whether husband can prove that wife caused cruelty to his re

Whether husband can prove that wife caused cruelty to his relatives without examining them?

To prove the accusation of humiliation caused to other family
members of the appellant/husband, we find that none of the family members
has been examined as witness with any specific act attributed to the
respondent/wife which can be termed as cruelty for purpose of seeking
divorce. While the appellant/husband has appeared as PW-1, he examined
his neighbour Sh.Om Prakash as PW-2 and Sh.A.K.Gaur – his brother-inlaw
as PW-3. None of these two witnesses deposed about any incident
which could prove any act of cruelty being committed by the
respondent/wife till she stayed at her matrimonial home.
