Since both of you are in Govetnment service, slow pedalling is advisable ad it may hinder service.As your lawuer opines,.RVR is the immediste action.
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 30 November 2020
RCR notice is a time tested tool to compel wife to raise true/false complaint of dowry/domestic violence against husband with family including married/unmarried brother/sisters wit/without their spouse. This way husband leaves her with no choice but to spoil his family even if she does not want to do so.

This forum is full of such cases where husband with parents/siblings faced such criminal charges.
After visiting jails people realise that the situation inside Indian Jails is not as rosy as shown in movies and the cops are also comedians in movies which is not in actual life.

Further allegations under 409a is a professional misconduct for govt and the deptt has option to initiate disciplinary proceedings without waiting for outcome of criminal case.

even if deptt does not opt so, still deemed suspension operate from 48 hours of custody.

Your counsels advice Is perfectly right and has weight.you must follow his advice.Divorce petition is not maintainable before passing of one year of marriage.

Filing of RCR is the proper course of action. However, it could be counterproductive in prompting the wife to go for counter-cases.

When you had been threatened about 498A etc better go for filing RCR immediately mentioning about all the Threats by her and her family and also mention in the Petition about her compulsion to come to her home leaving behind your Parents who are Senior Citizens. By filing the RCR in more detail you would have strong defense when she files 498A etc. Discuss this with an Local Good Senior Expertised Advocate and Legally Proceed with RCR

There is no serious problem, make sincere efforts for reconcilliation and reunion roping in elders / relatives.
Do not attempt for any legal recourse.

Try to save marriage, take help of relatives.

If not possible, follow the advice of your Advocate as one year has not passed after marriage which is required to file divorce.
