Rama had duty as a king to maintain moral standards amongst his subjects. After he was crowned once it happened that there was a quarrel between a washerman and his wife in ayodhya. The wife said she would go away to her parents home and he will have to go and fetch her. The man said "do you think I am rama who even took back his wife even though she was caarried away by another rakshasa?"
The matter was reported to the king Rama and the King felt that only by self sacrifice this tongue wagging can be stopped or else more and more people will take to bad ways citing him as example. So he sent sita back to forest as his supreme sacrifice to his subjects. It was satya yuga and Rama was from the famous Ikshvaku dynasty which always considered the welfare of subjects more than their personal likes and dislikes.
It is avery high concept and cannot be understood by the people of Kali yuga

Rama came back to Ayothya with Sita Devi after winning over Ravan. He was a King of virture sand truth. He had to uphold the moral standard in his life as well as in his subjects. As a king to know the feelling of his people he was going round ayodya in the night in disguise. On day during such rounds he happened to hear a qurrely between a washerman and his wife. The wife was away from her home for some time and the husband was asking where did she go. He further said that he is not Rama to accept a wife. He was citing the example of Ravan abducting Sita Devi and keeping here in Lanka for longtime.
On hearing this Rama felt too bad and thought that only by self sacrifice this kind of talks can be stopped or else more and more people will take to bad ways citing him as example. So he sent sita back to forest as his supreme sacrifice to his subjects. It was because Rama always considered the welfare of his subjects more than their personal likes and dislikes.
So neither Sita Devi nor Lord Rama was guilty. We cannot also say the washerman was guilty as people will take advantage and talk anything. This is the human nature.

'Some time after the wedding, circumstances became such that Rama felt it his duty to leave Ayodhya and spend a period of exile in the forests of Dandakaranya. Sita willingly renounced the comforts of the palace and joined her husband in braving the travails of exile, even living in a forest. Worse was however to come; the forest was the scene for the abduction of Sita by Ravana, King of Lanka, one of her former suitors. Ravana kidnapped Sita while her husband was away hunting. Jatayu, the vulture-king, who was a friend of Rama, tried to protect her, but Ravana chopped off his wings. Jatayu survived long enough to inform Rama of what had happened.
