According to your statement, your daughter is not safe at husband's place. So we suggest that you should, firstly lodge a FIR at the nearest police station under section 498 A, and thereafter file a case under Domestic Violence Act.
Assuming you are Hindus,
If your daughter wants to stay with him then you can file an petition under Section 9 of the Hindu Marriage Act.
If she desires divorce then she can file divorce petition under Section 13(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act and seek divorce on the grounds of cruelty
