1. 125 Cr. P.C. case is just meant for maintenance and no hard and fast scrutiny of the evidence is made therein except the income of husband and wife. If wild allegation therein are annexed in evidence, those have no value therein so dont go on that line as you think here.
2. This is just an information and no query has been raised.
3. There is no scope of counter-case in the matter of maintenance except to file an appeal before next appellate court seeking reduction in the awarded amount of maintenance, if any.
4. After marriage, parents of your wife have no liability to maintain your wife and now you have to look after her providing similar status as you are enjoying.
5. There is no citation helpful for you rather all the citations are in favour of your wife wherein you shall have to maintain her. You can just agitate over the quantum of maintenance but definitely order shall be pronounced against you, if you have accepted your marriage and your wife has no independent source of income.
6. You have not mentioned anything about custody of your children so no citation can be provided without coming to know the facts of dispute. Generally custody of minor children is provided to the mother with visiting rights available to father.
In the given matter, it seems that you want to take revenge from your wife which is not good in the interest of all. Try to make compromise with your wife in the larger interest of your whole family including your minor children. It is not good to waste time, energy, respect, money, mental peace just for fighting with wife and children in the courts. Try to understand and leave superiority complex.
