You may file a complaint in court under section 12 of the Protection of Woman Against Domestic Violence Act 2005. You may also file a petition of Divorce Against your husband under section 13 (1)(ia) of the Hindu Marriage Act 1955, on the ground of cruelty. You may take the advice of a good lawyer who is capable of presenting your case effectively.
