1. She can go to senior citizen tribunal for necessary reliefs.
2. She can claim maintenance from the court.
3. If the said property was bought by the money of village land then she can go to court and seek permanent injunction directing son and daughter in law to vacate the residential premises or to give her share (Depends upon many facts).
4. She can file the complaint to Senior Citizen cell of Police as well.

Dear Concerned,

Please lodge a complaint with the police immediately. Police is duty bound under the Senior Citizens Act to provide the security to the Senior Citizens. You should not be bothered about the matter or your name getting publicized but you should save them first.

mother can file a police complaint as well as a complaint under the domestic violence act against her son and her daughter in law and can ask for separate residence as well as monthly expenses also from her son.
