Answer #3

You can file a defamation suit against the family member. Your family member cannot commit you to a a mental institution on his own sweet will. Before admission an evaluation of the patient has to be carried out by a registered medical practitioner. It is only after the satisfaction of the medical practitioners that a patient is admitted as per the Mental health act.
