Dowry & mental harassment

You need to teach a lesson to your husband and in laws before going there. If you will directly go there without taking any action , they will not give respect to you. You need to take a soft step to teach them a lesson. You just give a complaint to your concerned Women Cell . They will call your husband and in laws and teach them a preliminary lesson and they have the right to register an F.I.R and arrest, if required at later stage. Then they will give assurance to the women cell that they will not harass you any more .
Harsh Step is that you can file case of Domestic violence and many other steps are there.

You have several options to get yourself redressed from the arisen situation. You have right to file section 9 petition under Hindu Marriage Act, besides lodging complaint with women cell of your concerned area while mentioning relevant facts of your case and they may call your husband and other family members and certainly through counselling they may be able to get you back in family, else, you may further take action against them and get back your dowry articles through women cell itself, and also seek maintenance through court process.
