Respected madam, Your husband issue regarding his greed of money for playing lottery and harassing you can be solved by teaching him a lession by filing maintenance case u/s 125 Cr. P. C before the illaqa magistrate where you reside and this case is maintainable even if you are residing with your husband and he should have to pay the monthly maintenance to you and your minor children despite this fact that he is not working as law laid down by the hon'ble Punjab and Haryana High Court in 2016(3) civil court cases 210 (P&H) and in each month default for non-paying the maintenance he will go to jail and then he will not harass you and it is the one of biggest weapon in the hand of married woman and apart from this you can move application to police for taking legal action against him for harassing you in the meanwhile.

Dear client, You can file complaint under Domestic Violence Act. In which you can ask for protection orders, oreder for residence, monetory reliefs, i.e maintenance, medical benifits, injunction orders to restrain him from selling any property, or forcing you from withdrawing any money.
