1. you have all the right to execute the agreement done at the time of divorce. 2. you can lodge a complaint in police station against your father for executing the agreement and for torturing you. 3. you can also file a case against your father for not taking care of you, and torturing you. 4. you can pray to the court by filing a case against your father to get compensation, expenses etc

Dear Madam, Yes, the girl child till her legal marriage has a right to claim maintenance and/or compensation from her father. Under the agreement before the Court he has also undertaken to maintain his daughter but violated such condition. Ask your daughter to file maintenance case and it may be ended in compromise.
