Your husband and your in laws can not force you to take divorce and I just want to know where do you live now whether with your parents home or with your husband home and if you want to live with your husband then you can file a case for restitution of conjugal rights under section 9 of Hindu marriage act

In your case, you have two options -

1. You can take assistance of Women's cell constituted in every police station. The police authorities will call your husband and in laws and counsel them. They will not harass them or arrest them. They will not be treated like criminals. This is a good option.

2. You can file a case under the Domestic Violence Act against your in laws seeking protection from physical and mental abuse. The court will pass appropriate orders.
