If you're earning presently then your parents would have no liability, otherwise, u can live separately from your parents and file a police complaint stating that you were harassed and violence was inflicted upon you by your parents which compelled you to move separately.
After that file a petition under section 125 of CrPC for maintenance from your parents on the ground that you are unable to maintain yourself as you are still studying and have no means of income.
