You cannot file any divorce petition unless you complete one year from the date of your marriage. Further if you file mutual Divorce petition, you need to decide on the monthly maintenance amount and compensation along with your husband. court won't decide on this issue. or otherwise you can file criminal miscellaneous case by filing Domestic Violence case against your inlaws for violence. I suggest you to contact your advocate for more information.
You can file dowry harassment case against your husband and in-laws, sis-in-law under Section.498 of IPC and you can file domestic violence case also at Magistrate Court even asking maintenance also. You can't apply for divorce until one year get completes of your marriage. You can go for mutual consent after one year by asking him for settlement amount. If he agrees for the amount asked by you otherwise you can fight for the same through court by not going for mutual consent. Consult advocate.
