Complaint against in law for domestic violence.


30-Jul-2023 (In Family Law)
I was married 3 months back, my in-laws told me that my husband owns a office and has his independent business but in reality the office (property) belongs to my husband but all my husband earning is taken away by my father-in-law and brother-in-law as he do not earn enough to run the family. when my husband and I wanted our share they started torturing me. They denied to give me anything. They even refused to give me convenience to go college. They also pressurized me to do house work instead of study. They also had a problem with gold and dresses I wear that was given as gifts by my parents. They never offered me proper meals. when my husband supported me and asked for my rights, my father in law beats him and abused him. when we still refused to forgave our rights, father-in-law and brother-in-law threatened us that they will file a fake case against my husband of fraud and made us leave his house. What can I do to get my rights?

File a DV petition right away. It provides for almost all prayers that you are looking for. Your husband can seek his rights in civil/ criminal (for threats) proceedings.

Be it her husband/mother in law/father in law/brother/father or even a live in partner. A lady will get protection of the court under Protection of women from domestic violence act.
SC has in it’s judgment has unequivocally ruled that ruled a woman can invoke criminal provisions of the Domestic . It’s no more limited only against the male relatives of the husband .
