Legal procedure to seperate from parents as an adult?


10-Sep-2023 (In Family Law)
I'm 20 female. Family is mentally and physically abusive because I am not agreeing to get married within 1 year. They are threatening to lock me down at home and then forcefully marry to some guy. I am a chartered accountant and planning to work in different city away from family. But father has political connections so he'll try to bring me back using emotional blackmail and physical harm. After 3 years I have come to conclusion that legally seperating from family forever is the best and safest option. So how do I legally seperate from both my parents? Please tell me the detailed procedure.

as you being a person who had attained majority under the provisions of the prevailing law, you can take a decision either to live with your parents or not and at the instance if you want to be seperated from your family, you can very well do that without any legal issue.

As an adult, you can choose life of your own. That requires no legal procedure. In case of physical or psychological violence, there are specific provisions under the Indian Penal Code and other laws, which you can rely on as and when necessary.
