Well, after understanding the facts which you have stated, I suggest you to file for either Divorce or Judicial Separation and parallely with that, file a case for seeking Maintenance for you and your Baby under Sec 125 of the CRPC along with Custody of your Baby. List of Documents will send you through SMS.

file a FIR against your husband and family members regarding Domestic Violence. File a maintenance case before the court seeking maintenance from your husband. and as your child is 8 months old. according to law the child custody should be with the mother itself till the age of 6 years old
