In principle you have the right to stay at the matrimonial home. But the property is that of your mother in law and it is her absolute property then you and your husband are permitted occupants and she has the right to ask you to leave. However, it is your husband who has the duty to arrange a matrimonial home.

no you don't have any rights on staying in matrimonial house. you have to vacate the house and needs to file the counter and if possible to file reunion case to rejoin. it is the contested case so contest it
