If a wife registers a case of 498a via Pvt.complaint and boyside gets acquittal after full trial then in those situations if that complanant girl does not come forward for appeal then is it possible for APP to appeal in upper court without girl's signature ? Can he alone do the appeal procedure ?

In a 498A case, the State is a de jure complainant. The State can go on Appeal. The wife is the de fact complainant, the victim She too, can approach the Higher Court.
