Ma'am you don't need to worry so much... Your mother should immediately file a case under DV act for such inhuman torture... through that case your mother can claim accommodation right to stay and also ask for maintenance for both of you. At the same time your mother can also file a suit for divorce ... For further consultation you need to contact me. Regards, Subhashis Paul Advocate High Court, Calcutta

tell your mother to seek professional help. you can ask your mother to visit any legal services authority office at the district court premises and discuss your problem there. it's completely free and shall guide you better. regards, Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, M.Sc (Net), LL.B (Delhi), Advocate Hon'ble High Court, Calcutta.
