You can file FIR against the girl's parents on grounds of wrongful confinement, criminal intimidation among others.
However, an effective remedy would be to file a petition before the Hon'ble Supreme Court to issue the writ of Habeas Corpus directing the police to bring the girl before them.

You need to take help of NGO and local police station coming under jurisdiction. Abetment of suicide is grave offence but in this case the nature is very much familial and subject to parents wish. Just reach out to police station asap.
