She was forced into marriage, her mother knew she loved Rahul yet got her married to Ant anyways. She did it because she loved her sister, she then found out Rahul was using her.
Niharika agreed to marry Ant AT FIRST - her mother didn't want her to go back on her word.
Even though she was married, Niharika continued to see Rahul. She CHOSE to form an intimate relationship with him WHILST MARRIED. You reap what you sew. She got what she deserved and yet she didn't realize this and made sure that Rahul was killed. How DARE anyone go against Niharika, right?

Ant raped her, he got off. Ant killed her husband, he is walking around problem free while his brother got the blame, his mother died and his family was put out the house!
Ant raped her as a result of her behaviour towards him. Although he eventually didn't go DOWN for it, he DID spend some time in jail and faced a court case and humiliation. (In the form of facing his family and the press, ETC.)
It is hardly HIS fault that his mother died and his family were kicked out of the house. The latter was Niharika's fault, actually. SHE chose to do that.

At least when Niharika, seeked revenge it was because of what the family did to her. They still stood by Ant, even though he raped Niharika and when she announces her husband's death. No one believed her, not even her own sister, who chose to insult her Niharika by applying sindoor.
Um, whatever Ant has done to Niharika is a result of what SHE has done to HIM. Does that justify some of his awful actions? NO, right? The same goes for Niharika.
It is NOT up to THEM to punish someone.
Actually, Ant's family DIDN'T stand by him during the whole 'rape gate.' His mother wouldn't even look at him and his father was very angry and disappointed. Dhruv was in shock too and Vedika actually testified AGAINST him. The only person who sided with Ant through all of this was SUNDARI and for obvious reasons as we later found out. Remember Ant almost committing suicide because his whole family had turned against him?
Niharika announcing Rudra's death was a classic case of the 'boy who cried wolf' from the family's POV. Her past finally caught up with her and can you really blame them for not believing her? (The amount of LIES she has spun!) No body was found, Rudra (with Niharika's help) was running away from the police (being guilty of Parth's 'initial' kidnap) and they simply thought that she was trying to protect her husband. Would they have been singing the same tune had Rudra's body been found at that time?
Vedika applied sinndoor on Niharika because she felt that lying about your husband's death (of all things) is a disgraceful thing for a wife to do. She didn't mean it as an 'insult' because she thought that Rudra was still alive. Their family values indicate that it is 'horrific' to not apply sinndoor when your husband is still 'alive.'

Now, Ant being the cold jerk he is decides to mock Rudra's death with an imposter, further adding salt to Niharika's wounds and inflicting pain and anger in her already broken heart.
That sounds like something Niharika would do/has done.
