[Trigger Warning: The following content contains information on domestic violence which some readers may find disturbing.]
You or anyone on your behalf, can approach the authorities listed below to file a complaint against any domestic violence that you have been facing:
Police
Go to the Police Station
You can approach the police station in your area, or any other police station, and file a complaint for domestic violence. The police will file a DIR/FIR and/or direct you to the Protection Officer of the district who will be able to help you out further.
Protection Officer
Approach the Protection Officer
To file a complaint, the Protection Officer of the district will be the first point of contact for you. The Protection Officer will help you file a Domestic Incident Report (DIR), make applications to the Court to get you monetary relief, protection etc. A state-by-state list of Protection Officers is given here. If you cannot find the Protection Officer of your area, you can reach out to NGOs, civil society organizations and service providers who will put you in touch with one.
National and State Commissions for Women
Approach the National/State Commission for Women
National Commission for Women (NCW) is a national-level government organization that is empowered to investigate complaints related to issues faced by women, such as domestic violence, dowry harassment, rape, etc. The NCW will help you by:
- Monitoring and expediting the investigations being led by the police.
- Providing counselling or a hearing before the NCW, so that the dispute can be resolved between the two parties.
- Constituting an Inquiry Committee which makes spot inquiries, examines witnesses, collects evidence and submits the report with recommendations regarding the domestic violence.
You can get in touch with them by either calling the helpline number 1091, or sending an email to ncw@nic.in or filing an online complaint. As the NCW is located in New Delhi, you can approach the State Commission of Women situated in your state, and ask them for help.
Some states provide handbooks for ASHA workers where you can find more information on forms on violence, where it can happen and how to file a complaint to seek protection against domestic violence. For example, see this handbook published for ASHA in Chattisgarh, Delhi, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and Uttarakhand.

আসসালামুয়ালাইকুম,স্যার আমি বাংলাদেশে থেকে বলছি। আমার এক বোন থাকে ক্যেলিফোনিয়া তার দুটি সন্তান রয়েছে। তার স্বামী তাকে পাগল বলে তার থেকে তার সন্তানদের নিয়ে তাকে বাসায় একা ফেলে চলে গেছে। সে বাচ্চাদের অনেক ভালবাসে। সে বাচ্চাদের শাসন করত একটু জোরে কথা বলত। এখন তার স্বামী আরেকটি বিয়ে করবে ও তাকে ডিভোর্স দিয়ে দিতে চাচ্ছে। এক বৎসর সে আমার বোন কে ডিভোর্স দেয়ার প্লেন করে তাকে ভালবাসার অভিনয় করে। এখন আমরা অনেক দূরে থাকি আপনাদের আমেরিকা তে কি ভাবে আমার বোন আইনী সহায়তা পাব? একটু জানতে চাই?

So, you can file an FIR under Section 79 of BNS that concerns with insulting the modesty of a woman. Under this Section, the state of the remark as being displayed ‘in any form’ will be relevant to the fact that this was online and also was intended to be seen by you. Since this is a cognizable offense under the First Schedule of the BNSS, 2023, you can directly approach a police station and file an FIR either in writing or orally which the police officer- in charge will be mandated to accept.

Hi,muzhe apne husband se bahut pareshani hai.woh drinks pi ke chub logo se aur mere saath bhi ladte hai.aap bahaeye ki mein kya karu

Aapki pareshani ko samajhne mein mujhe bahut dukh hua. Gharelu hinsa kabhi bhi sahi nahi hai aur aap akele nahi hain. Aapki madad ke liye kai sansadhan uplabdh hain.
Sabse pehle, aap apni suraksha sunishchit karen. Agar aapko khatra hai ki aapka pati aapko nuksan pahuncha sakta hai, to turant kisi surakshit jagah par jaen. Aap kisi mitra, parivar ke sadasya ya mahila aashray mein ja sakti hain.
Yahan kuchh helpline numbers aur authorities hain jinse aap sampark kar sakti hain:
National Commission for Women: 1800-180-1096
Mahila Shakti Kendra: 181
Police: 100
Child Helpline: 1098
Aap in websites par bhi jaa sakti hain:
National Commission for Women: http://ncw.nic.in/
Mahila Shakti Kendra: https://wcd.nic.in/schemes/mahila-shakti-kendras-msk
Aap apne mamle ki report police mein bhi kar sakti hain. Police aapko suraksha pradan karne aur aapke pati ke khilaf karvayi karne mein madad karegi.
Yaad rakhen, aap akeli nahi hain aur aapki madad ke liye log uplabdh hain. Aapko apne pati ka durvyavhar bardasht karne ki koi avashyakta nahi hai.
Kuchh aur sujhav:
Kisi vishwasniiya mitra ya parivar ke sadasya se baat karen. Aapki baat sunne aur aapko samarthan dene wala koi hona mahatvpurn hai.
Ek therapist ya counselor se baat karen. Ve aapko apne anubhavon se nipatne aur aage badhane ke liye swasth tarike viksit karne mein madad kar sakte hain.
Kisi support group mein shamil hon. Anya mahilaon se milna jo saman anubhavon se guzer rahi hain, aapko kam akeli mahsus karne mein madad kar sakta hai aur aapko samarthan aur salah pradan kar sakta hai.
Aapko shakti aur sahas mile.

Hi,
I need support from you for my mother and my family against my father. He is a very toxic and threatening person. We have been living separately from him for 10 years because he beat my mother badly, and at that time, we filed a complaint against him. However, no strong action was taken by the police. Now, he frequently comes to our relatives and abuses us, giving many threats that he will kill us if he finds us. We are living separately, but he doesn’t know where, and he is desperately searching for us.
I am the elder son of my mother, and I have two sisters. The whole family depends on me. If I lose my job because of this, we will have nothing. We don’t want to confront him face to face because we don’t know what he will do afterward. He may follow us and definitely do something harmful to my family. So, I would like to request your help.

In case of a woman, you can call the helpline num. 1090 (National Woman Helpline) or your state’s helpline number related to the same, which can be found [https://www.indiacustomercare.com/women-helpline-numbers.
These can be helpful in case of any emergency situation that may arise involving threats from your father.
You can choose any of the below: 1. File a case under Section 503 (Criminal Intimidation) of IPC as your father is threatening to kill or injure you or your family and injure your family’s reputation. 2. You can file for a protection order under section 18 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 seeking restrain on your father from entering the place of residence of your mother and sisters. Since there have been prior instances of domestic violence being inflicted on your mother, this protection can be obtained despite the fact of seperate residence for the last 10 years. 2. Your mother may choose to file for divorce since this will lead to legal separation and you can even file for restraining orders from the court during divorce proceedings. Grounds for divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 based on your situation are the following: a. Section 13(1)(ia) (Divorce on Grounds of Cruelty) – Since your father’s threatening behaviour towards your mother and your family amounts to cruelty you can choose to file for divorce under this section. b. Section 13(1)(ib) (Desertion) – Establish that your father has deserted your family without reasonable cause for a continuous period of two years.

You are absolutely right to seek immediate protection and file a police complaint. Here are the relevant provisions under the new Indian laws that you should be aware of:
1. Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (PWDVA):
Section 2(a): Defines “domestic violence” broadly to include:
Physical Abuse: Any harm caused to your body, including assault, pushing, shoving, slapping, kicking, punching, etc.
Verbal Abuse: Insults, threats, name-calling, humiliation, intimidation, etc.
Emotional Abuse: Controlling behavior, isolation, manipulation, gaslighting, etc.
Economic Abuse: Controlling access to finances, preventing you from working, etc.
Section 3: Empowers you to file a complaint for protection against domestic violence with a Magistrate.
Section 9: The Magistrate can issue a Protection Order against your brother-in-law, which can include:
Restraining Orders: Preventing him from contacting or coming near you.
Compensation Orders: Ordering him to pay for medical expenses, mental health treatment, or other damages.
Section 18: A police officer has the power to take action in a case of domestic violence, including arresting the abuser.
2. Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (Indian Penal Code):
Section 115: Voluntarily Causing Hurt: This applies if your brother-in-law has physically harmed you.
Section 118: Voluntarily Causing Grievous Hurt: This applies if the injuries are serious and require medical attention.
Section 118(3): Voluntarily Causing Grievous Hurt by Dangerous Means: This applies if your brother-in-law has used a weapon or dangerous object to injure you.
Section 109: Attempt to Murder: This applies if he threatened to kill you, especially if there were actions to suggest he was serious about carrying out the threat.
Section 351: Criminal Intimidation: This applies if he threatened to harm you, your husband, or your family to force you to leave the house.
3. Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (Indian Criminal Procedure Code):
Section 173: The police officer is obligated to register a First Information Report (FIR) based on your complaint if it alleges a cognizable offense (such as the ones mentioned above from the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita).
Section 190: The police must then forward the case to a Magistrate if they have reasonable grounds to believe that an offense has been committed.
Key Points:
PWDVA: This Act is crucial for your situation. It specifically addresses domestic violence and provides protection orders and legal remedies for women.
Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita: The provisions of this code define the criminal offenses that may have been committed by your brother-in-law, allowing you to pursue charges.
Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita: This code ensures the police are obligated to register your complaint and forward the case to a Magistrate.

PWDVA की धारा 3 और 12 के तहत सुरक्षा आदेश, आवास आदेश और मौद्रिक राहत मांगी जा सकती है।
अवैध बंधन:
भारतीय दंड संहिता (IPC) की धारा 340 गलत बंधन को परिभाषित करती है, और धारा 342 IPC गलत बंधन के लिए सजा का प्रावधान करतीहै, जो एक साल तक की कैद या जुर्माना, या दोनों हो सकता है।
आत्महत्या के लिए उकसाना:
IPC की धारा 306 आत्महत्या के लिए उकसाने से संबंधित है। यदि उत्पीड़न या यातना के कारण कोई व्यक्ति आत्महत्या करता है, तो दोषियों को10 साल तक की कैद और जुर्माना हो सकता है।
भारत में घरेलू हिंसा, अवैध बंधन और उत्पीड़न से संबंधित स्थितियों से निपटने के लिए कई कानूनी उपाय उपलब्ध हैं। सबसे पहले कदमों में से एकपुलिस में शिकायत दर्ज कराना है। आपको स्थानीय पुलिस स्टेशन जाकर अपराधियों के खिलाफ भारतीय दंड संहिता (IPC) और घरेलू हिंसा सेमहिलाओं का संरक्षण अधिनियम (PWDVA) की संबंधित धाराओं के तहत प्रथम सूचना रिपोर्ट (FIR) दर्ज करनी चाहिए। पुलिस आपकी शिकायतके आधार पर जांच शुरू कर सकती है और आवश्यक कार्रवाई कर सकती है।
PWDVA के तहत सुरक्षा आदेश एक और महत्वपूर्ण उपाय प्रदान करते हैं। आप घरेलू हिंसा से सुरक्षा के लिए PWDVA की धारा 12 के तहतअदालत में आवेदन कर सकते हैं। अदालत विभिन्न आदेश जारी कर सकती है, जिसमें आगे के शोषण को रोकने के लिए सुरक्षा आदेश, आवासआदेश और वित्तीय आवश्यकताओं को पूरा करने के लिए मौद्रिक राहत शामिल हैं।
महिला हेल्पलाइनों और गैर-सरकारी संगठनों (NGOs) से संपर्क करना भी एक व्यावहारिक कदम है। 181 जैसी हेल्पलाइनों और महिलाओं कीसुरक्षा के लिए काम करने वाले विभिन्न NGOs तत्काल सहायता, परामर्श और आश्रय प्रदान कर सकते हैं। ये संगठन अक्सर समर्थन सेवाएं प्रदानकरते हैं जो आपको कानूनी प्रक्रिया को नेविगेट करने और आपकी सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित करने में मदद कर सकते हैं।
कानूनी सहायता और परामर्श महिलाओं के लिए बहुत महत्वपूर्ण हैं। जिला कानूनी सेवा प्राधिकरण (DLSA) जैसे कानूनी सेवाएं प्राधिकरण मुफ्तकानूनी सहायता प्रदान करते हैं, जिससे यह सुनिश्चित होता है कि आपको कानूनी प्रतिनिधित्व और परामर्श की सुविधा मिल सके। यह समर्थन कानूनीकार्रवाई को आगे बढ़ाने और आपके अधिकारों को सुरक्षित करने में महत्वपूर्ण हो सकता है।
आप राष्ट्रीय महिला आयोग (NCW) से भी हस्तक्षेप के लिए संपर्क कर सकते हैं। NCW उत्पीड़न और शोषण के मामलों की जांच करने और उचितकार्रवाई की सिफारिश करने का अधिकार रखता है। वे यह सुनिश्चित करने में एक मूल्यवान संसाधन हो सकते हैं कि आपका मामला आवश्यक ध्यानऔर कार्रवाई प्राप्त करे।
आपकी सुरक्षा और भलाई के लिए त्वरित कदम उठाना महत्वपूर्ण है। दुरुपयोग और बंधन की रिपोर्ट करने के लिए 100 डायल करके या निकटतमपुलिस स्टेशन जाकर पुलिस से संपर्क करें। यदि आपका जीवन तत्काल खतरे में है, तो अपनी सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित करने के लिए किसी आश्रय गृह यासुरक्षित स्थान पर शरण लें।

1) Under the new BNS, you have several remedies available for torture depending on the situation. Considering the situation: Section 117. Voluntarily causing Grievous Hurt may apply if it caused any permanent disability or even severe bodily pain. If you were subject to grievous hurt by a dangerous weapon then even Section 118 may apply. Since both Section 117 and 118 come under Cognizable offenses under the First Schedule of the BNSS, 2023, you can under Section 173 of the BNSS, file an FIR either orally or in writing to any police station regardless of where the crime was committed since the police under the new BNSS will be obligated to accept your FIR no matter what. 2) A case can also be filed under the Protection of Women from Domestic Abuse Act 2005, in the form of a Domestic Incident Report (DIR). This is to be done to the Protection Officer of your district who will record the DIR under Section 9 (1)(b) (2) of the Protection of Women from Domestic Abuse Act 2005. To access the Protection Officer, you can contact the State Women and Child Development Department where each state will have the list of Protection Officers on its website. You can also directly approach the Magistrate or a police officer to file a DIR.

घरेलू हिंसा की शिकायत करने का प्रोसेस:-
(1) सबसे पहले पीड़िता को पुलिस स्टेशन या कोर्ट में कम्प्लेन करानी होगी।
(2) इसके बाद, जिस व्यक्ति के खिलाफ कम्प्लेन फाइल हुई है, उसको कोर्ट द्वारा बुलाया जायेगा।
(3) इसके बाद कोर्ट के जज समझेंगे कि दोषी की गलती है या नहीं। और अगर है, तो कितनी गलती है। इसके आधार पर कोर्ट तय करेगी कि पीड़िता को मेंटेनेंस मिलना चाहिए या नहीं।
(4) इसके बाद, कोर्ट दोषी की आर्थिक स्तिथि को ध्यान में रखकर तय करेगी कि पीड़िता को कितना मेंटेनेंस मिलेगा और सुबूतों के आधार पर अपना फाइनल डिसीज़न करेगी।

यदि आप एक कमरे में बंद हैं और पुलिस स्टेशन नहीं जा सकते, लेकिन आपके पास वाईफाई से जुड़ा फोन है, तो भी आप भारतीय कानून के तहतमदद मांग सकते हैं और शिकायत दर्ज कर सकते हैं। यहां आपके द्वारा उठाए जा सकने वाले कदम दिए गए हैं:
पुलिस को ऑनलाइन शिकायत:
भारत के कई राज्य पुलिस विभाग ऑनलाइन शिकायत दर्ज करने की सुविधा प्रदान करते हैं। अपने राज्य के पुलिस विभाग की आधिकारिक वेबसाइटपर जाएं और ऑनलाइन FIR या शिकायत दर्ज करने के विकल्प की तलाश करें। आप अपनी स्थिति का विवरण प्रदान कर सकते हैं और तत्कालमदद का अनुरोध कर सकते हैं।
उदाहरण: यदि आप दिल्ली में हैं, तो आप दिल्ली पुलिस की आधिकारिक वेबसाइट पर जाकर ऑनलाइन शिकायत दर्ज कर सकते हैं।
पुलिस को ईमेल करें:
आप अपने स्थानीय पुलिस स्टेशन या राज्य के पुलिस मुख्यालय को अपनी स्थिति का विवरण देते हुए ईमेल भेज सकते हैं। अधिकांश पुलिस विभागोंके पास आधिकारिक ईमेल पते होते हैं जहाँ वे शिकायतें स्वीकार करते हैं।
अपने ईमेल में अपने स्थान, बंदीकरण की प्रकृति और आपके द्वारा झेले जा रहे शोषण की स्पष्ट जानकारी दें।
आपातकालीन सेवाओं के ऐप्स का उपयोग करें:
“112 इंडिया” ऐप जैसे आपातकालीन सेवाओं के ऐप डाउनलोड करें और उनका उपयोग करें, जो कि पूरे भारत में आपातकालीन प्रतिक्रिया प्रणालीहै। आप ऐप के माध्यम से SOS अलर्ट भेज सकते हैं, जो आपकी स्थिति और तत्काल सहायता की आवश्यकता की सूचना आपातकालीन सेवाओंको देगा।
राष्ट्रीय महिला आयोग (NCW):
आप राष्ट्रीय महिला आयोग (NCW) के साथ ऑनलाइन शिकायत दर्ज कर सकते हैं। उनकी आधिकारिक वेबसाइट NCW ऑनलाइन शिकायत परजाएं और अपनी शिकायत जमा करें। NCW हस्तक्षेप कर सकता है और स्थानीय अधिकारियों को कार्रवाई सुनिश्चित कर सकता है।
हेल्पलाइन्स:
हेल्पलाइनों का उपयोग करें जो तत्काल सहायता प्रदान कर सकती हैं। महिला हेल्पलाइन नंबर 181 और अन्य आपातकालीन हेल्पलाइन वाईफाईकॉल के माध्यम से पहुंची जा सकती हैं।
आप उन NGOs से भी संपर्क कर सकते हैं जो संकट में महिलाओं को समर्थन प्रदान करती हैं। इनके पास अक्सर हॉटलाइन और ऑनलाइन समर्थनप्रणालियाँ होती हैं।
सोशल मीडिया:
यदि सुरक्षित हो, तो आप ट्विटर या फेसबुक जैसे सोशल मीडिया प्लेटफॉर्म का उपयोग करके पुलिस या संबंधित अधिकारियों से संपर्क कर सकते हैं।पुलिस विभाग के आधिकारिक खातों को टैग करें और अपनी स्थिति का विवरण दें। अधिकारी अक्सर ऐसे सार्वजनिक पोस्टों पर जल्दी प्रतिक्रिया देतेहैं।
इन कदमों का पालन करके, आप सहायता और कानूनी कार्रवाई की मांग कर सकते हैं, भले ही आप बंदी हों और पुलिस स्टेशन तक शारीरिक रूप सेपहुंच नहीं सकते। सुरक्षित रहें और किसी भी उपलब्ध माध्यम का उपयोग करके मदद के लिए संपर्क करें।

The following laws can be made applicable – IPC, and the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005.
First, IPC
a) A charge under 498A against cruelty by husband can be made. Since it is an attempt to murder case causing grave injury or danger to the limb and life of the mother, a claim under S. 489A could also be filed. You, being a relative of your mother, can file a complaint against your father under this section.
b) You can file a case for attempt to murder under IPC Section 307. Section 307 criminalizes an attempt to murder. It is necessary to be proved that the act needs was done with intention or knowledge and the act would have in ordinary course led to death. Here, in term of punishment, the father could be subjected to imprisonment upto 10 years and a fine if no harm is caused and it could be extended to life imprisonment if hurt is caused to the mother.
c) A charge under S 324 could also be made depending on the means by which such an attempt was undertaken. If it was by dangerous weapons and means, then a charge under section 324 could also succeed.
Second, a complaint can be filed under the DV Act as well.
The DV Act covers physical abuse within its ambit. Since the act here endangers the life of the mother causing physical abuse, it would constitute domestic violence under Section 3 of the Act.
You having the knowledge or reason to believe that such an offense has been committed (Section 4) can approach a Police officer, Protection Officers or Service Provider or Magistrate. The father could be subjected to restriction orders, or monetary relief, or compensation among other reliefs.

Yeh kaafi gambhir aur dukh bhara sthiti hai. Aapko yeh samajhna hoga ki aapko suraksha aur samman ka hak hai, aur agar aapke saath ghar mein atyachar ya mansik pratadna ho rahi hai, toh aapko iske khilaf kadam uthana chahiye. Yahaan kuch ahem qadam hain jo aap utha sakti hain:
Police Mein Report Dena:
Agar aapke saath hinsa, dhamki, ya mansik atyachar ho raha hai, toh sabse pehle aapko apne shehar ya ilaqe ke police station mein report deni chahiye. Aap apni suraksha ke liye yeh qadam zaroor uthaiye.
Protection Order ya Restraining Order Ka Anurodh Karna:
Police report ke saath-saath, aap court se protection order ya restraining order ki bhi maang kar sakti hain. Yeh order aapke pati aur unke parivar ke logo ko aapse door rehne ka adesh deta hai.
Mahila Aayog ya Mahila Kalyan Sangathan se Sampark Karna:
Bharat mein kai mahila aayog aur kalyan sansthan hain jo aise mamlon mein madad karte hain. Aap unse sampark karke kanooni aur manovaigyanik madad le sakti hain.
Kanuni Salah Lena:
Aapko ek wakil ya kanooni salaahkar se sampark karna chahiye jo aapko yeh bata sakein ki aapke hak kya hain aur aapko kaise kanooni tareeqe se aage badhna chahiye.
Parivar ka Samarthan Lena:
Aapne apne ghar walon ka samarthan liya hai, jo ki acha hai. Unke saath bane rahiye aur unka sahara lijiye.
Alimony aur Maintenance Ki Maang:
Agar aap apne maike mein reh rahi hain aur aapka pati aapko koi kharch nahi de raha, toh aap kanooni tareeqe se unse alimony ya maintenance ki maang kar sakti hain.

Legally, every individual has the right to healthcare and dignity. If the daughter is unwell, she can seek medical care. If her in-laws are preventing her from doing so, this could amount to negligence or even abuse. Emotional, psychological, or physical neglect could be considered domestic abuse under domestic violence laws. Try visiting the doctor with the daughter on your own if they are unwilling to accompany her. Through peaceful mediation (formal or informal) arrange for your daughter’s stay at your house for some days. If under apprehension of any kind from the family members of the husband, call 7827170170 – National Commission for Women Helpline. Here are some other numbers that can be referred to under different circumstances: http://www.ncw.nic.in/helplines

कानूनी तौर पर हर व्यक्ति को स्वास्थ्य देखभाल और सम्मान का अधिकार है। यदि बेटी अस्वस्थ है, तो वह चिकित्सा देखभाल ले सकती है। यदि उसके ससुराल वाले उसे ऐसा करने से रोक रहे हैं, तो यह लापरवाही या दुर्व्यवहार भी हो सकता है। घरेलू हिंसा कानूनों के तहत भावनात्मक, मनोवैज्ञानिक या शारीरिक उपेक्षा को घरेलू दुर्व्यवहार माना जा सकता है। यदि बेटी उसके साथ जाने को तैयार नहीं है तो स्वयं उसके साथ डॉक्टर के पास जाने का प्रयास करें। शांतिपूर्ण मध्यस्थता (औपचारिक या अनौपचारिक) के माध्यम से अपनी बेटी के लिए कुछ दिनों के लिए अपने घर पर रहने की व्यवस्था करें। अगर पति के परिवार वालों को किसी भी तरह की आशंका हो तो 7827170170 – राष्ट्रीय महिला आयोग हेल्पलाइन पर कॉल करें। यहां कुछ अन्य नंबर दिए गए हैं जिन्हें विभिन्न परिस्थितियों में संदर्भित किया जा सकता है: http://www.ncw.nic.in/helplines

Your husband has committed offence under section 494 of Indian Penal Code when he has married to another woman whereas previously he married you, and his family is liable under section 498A of Indian Penal Code when they have beaten you. When police officers are not writing down the FIR you may approach the magistrate under Section 198A of Criminal Procedure Code where he will direct the police officers to write your report and will proceed further.

भारत में किसी को जान से मारने या घर से निकालने की धमकी देना गैरकानूनी है। इन कार्यों को उत्पीड़न और धमकी माना जा सकता है। अगर आपकी सास के साथ मारपीट की गई है तो आप पुलिस में शिकायत दर्ज करा सकती हैं। घटनाओं की सूचना स्थानीय पुलिस थाने को दें। तारीखों, समय और गवाहों सहित जितना संभव हो उतना विवरण प्रदान करें।
इसके अतिरिक्त, चूंकि शारीरिक क्षति का खतरा है, इसलिए आप अदालत से निरोधक आदेश के लिए आवेदन कर सकते हैं। यह आदेश उत्पीड़न करने वालों को आपकी सास या आपके घर के पास आने से रोकेगा।
यदि उत्पीड़न मानसिक पीड़ा या वित्तीय हानि का कारण बन रहा है जो आपके मामले में है (कम से कम पहले के लिए), तो आप क्षति के लिए एक नागरिक मुकदमा दायर कर सकते हैं।
अंत में, चूंकि उत्पीड़क आपके या आपकी सास से संबंधित हैं, इसलिए आप घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम के तहत सुरक्षा प्राप्त करने में सक्षम हो सकते हैं।
घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम, 2005 के तहत कानूनी उपचार
घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम, 2005 घरेलू हिंसा के पीड़ितों के लिए उत्पीड़न और धमकी सहित विभिन्न उपचार प्रदान करता है। यहां कुछ प्रासंगिक अनुभाग दिए गए हैं:
धारा 3: घरेलू हिंसा को किसी व्यक्ति द्वारा किसी अन्य व्यक्ति के खिलाफ हिंसा या दुर्व्यवहार के किसी भी कृत्य के रूप में परिभाषित किया गया है, चाहे वह शारीरिक, मौखिक, भावनात्मक, आर्थिक या यौन हो, जिसके साथ वे एक आम घर साझा करते हैं।
घरेलू हिंसा के विभिन्न कृत्यों पर प्रतिबंध लगाता है, जिनमें शामिल हैं:
शारीरिक शोषण
मौखिक और भावनात्मक दुर्व्यवहार
आर्थिक दुरुपयोग
यौन शोषण
धमकी या डराने वाला व्यवहार
धारा 2(ए): “पीड़ित व्यक्ति” को किसी भी महिला के रूप में परिभाषित करता है जो प्रतिवादी के साथ घरेलू संबंध में है या रही है और जो प्रतिवादी द्वारा घरेलू हिंसा के किसी भी कार्य के अधीन होने का आरोप लगाती है।
धारा 7: एक पुलिस अधिकारी, संरक्षण अधिकारी, सेवा प्रदाता या मजिस्ट्रेट जिसे घरेलू हिंसा की शिकायत मिली है या अन्यथा घरेलू हिंसा की घटना के स्थान पर मौजूद है या जब घरेलू हिंसा की घटना की सूचना उसे दी जाती है, तो उसे सूचित करना होगा पीड़ित व्यक्ति अपने अधिकारों से.
धारा 33 संरक्षण अधिकारी द्वारा कर्तव्य का निर्वहन न करने पर दंड का प्रावधान करती है।
धारा 19, 20, 21 निवास आदेश, मौद्रिक राहत और हिरासत आदेश के बारे में बात करती है।
धारा 19: पीड़ित व्यक्ति से गलत तरीके से ली गई किसी भी प्रकार की संपत्ति की बहाली का प्रावधान है।
यदि आपको लगता है कि आप या आपकी सास घरेलू हिंसा की शिकार हैं, तो आप घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम के तहत शिकायत दर्ज कर सकती हैं। एक वकील आपके अधिकारों को समझने और आवश्यक दस्तावेज़ दाखिल करने में आपकी सहायता कर सकता है।

If a false case is registered by a wife on her husband than two things can be done, namely, at first to defend yourself and wait for the judgement from the court or to file a counter case on your wife. Both can be further explained. If you are ready for defence (husband), then at first you require to safeguard yourself and family from being arrested on false allegations by filing or getting an anticipatory bail or any other such thing that totally depends on the situation at that time. Further one need to collect as many proves as possible to protect themselves for example call records, mails, photographs, messages, statements of neighbours and localities and many such things. Collecting evidence on not taking dowry and that the wife has moved out from the bond of marriage without any valid reason. The evidence will help during anticipatory bail or on getting notice of bail from the court.
You can even file a complaint on the grounds of Restitution of Conjugal Rights RCR, if the wife has left the husband’s place without any valid reasons and before she comes back the husband can lay down various conditions too for peaceful living.
Section 120B of Indian Penal Code 1860, talks about punishment for criminal conspiracy, where if there is a false case registered then the husband can file a case against his wife under this section as her intentions are to commit a crime against you.

Thank you for contacting Nyaaya. We are so sorry to learn about your situation. Here are some steps you can take:
You or anyone on your behalf, can approach the authorities listed below to file a complaint against any domestic violence that you have been facing:
Police
Go to the Police Station
You can approach the police station in your area, or any other police station, and file a complaint for domestic violence. The police will file a DIR/FIR and/or direct you to the Protection Officer of the district who will be able to help you out further.
Protection Officer
Approach the Protection Officer
To file a complaint, the Protection Officer of the district will be the first point of contact for you. The Protection Officer will help you file a Domestic Incident Report (DIR), make applications to the Court to get you monetary relief, protection etc. A state-by-state list of Protection Officers is given here. If you cannot find the Protection Officer of your area, you can reach out to NGOs, civil society organizations and service providers who will put you in touch with one.
National and State Commissions for Women
Approach the National/State Commission for Women
National Commission for Women (NCW) is a national-level government organization that is empowered to investigate complaints related to issues faced by women, such as domestic violence, dowry harassment, rape, etc. The NCW will help you by:
• Monitoring and expediting the investigations being led by the police.
• Providing counselling or a hearing before the NCW, so that the dispute can be resolved between the two parties.
• Constituting an Inquiry Committee which makes spot inquiries, examines witnesses, collects evidence and submits the report with recommendations regarding domestic violence.

My dad was working as a driver cum technician to a person in my village in his water purification plant.
The owner failed to pay dad’s salary and delayed almost for two years.
There is no proof to show the police that is maintained in the water plant. All most 6 laks he was supposed to pay out of which he paid in small amount each month in total of Rs 1,40,000. Balance amount is cheating now and not ready to settle the amount. Inspite of all these he has given multiple complaints against dad stating false allegations.
We are helpless now. Dad’s literally worried about it. Being a middle class family it’s a huge amount for us.
Can you suggest me if we could do something about it.

घरेलू हिंसा की शिकायत करने का प्रोसेस:-
(1) सबसे पहले पीड़िता को पुलिस स्टेशन या कोर्ट में कम्प्लेन करानी होगी।
(2) इसके बाद, जिस व्यक्ति के खिलाफ कम्प्लेन फाइल हुई है, उसको कोर्ट द्वारा बुलाया जायेगा।
(3) इसके बाद कोर्ट के जज समझेंगे कि दोषी की गलती है या नहीं। और अगर है, तो कितनी गलती है। इसके आधार पर कोर्ट तय करेगी कि पीड़िता को मेंटेनेंस मिलना चाहिए या नहीं।
(4) इसके बाद, कोर्ट दोषी की आर्थिक स्तिथि को ध्यान में रखकर तय करेगी कि पीड़िता को कितना मेंटेनेंस मिलेगा और सुबूतों के आधार पर अपना फाइनल डिसीज़न करेगी।

मुझे बहुत दुख हो रहा है आपकी स्थिति के बारे में सुनकर। यह बहुत गंभीर मामला है, और आपकी सुरक्षा और भलाई सबसे महत्वपूर्ण है। यहाँ कुछ सरल शब्दों में बताया गया है कि आप क्या कर सकते हैं:
1. कानूनी सुरक्षा (IPC की धारा):
घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम, 2005: आप घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम के तहत केस दर्ज कर सकते हैं, जो परिवार के सदस्यों द्वारा शारीरिक, भावनात्मक और मानसिक शोषण से सुरक्षा देता है। इस कानून के तहत पीड़ितों को सुरक्षा, जैसे आश्रय, चिकित्सा सहायता और कानूनी मदद मिलती है। यह कानून सिर्फ महिलाओं के लिए नहीं है; अगर आपके साथ अत्याचार हो रहा है, तो आप भी शिकायत कर सकते हैं।
भारतीय दंड संहिता (IPC) की धारा:
धारा 323 (स्वेच्छा से चोट पहुँचाना): अगर कोई आपको मारता है, तो इसे इस धारा के तहत दंडित किया जा सकता है।
धारा 506 (आपराधिक धमकी): अगर वे आपको मारने या नुकसान पहुँचाने की धमकी देते हैं, तो यह धारा लागू होती है।
धारा 498A (क्रूरता): यह धारा उस समय लागू होती है जब परिवार के सदस्यों द्वारा शारीरिक या मानसिक क्रूरता की जाती है। हालांकि इसे आमतौर पर महिलाओं के लिए इस्तेमाल किया जाता है, आप भी इसका सहारा ले सकते हैं अगर अत्याचार बहुत गंभीर है।
2. तत्काल कदम जो आप उठा सकते हैं:
पुलिस में शिकायत दर्ज कराएं: आप अपने स्थानीय पुलिस स्टेशन जाएं और फिर से विस्तार से शिकायत दर्ज करें। सभी धमकियों और पहले की घटनाओं का उल्लेख करें। आप घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम के तहत सुरक्षा भी मांग सकते हैं।
प्रोटेक्शन ऑर्डर प्राप्त करें: कोर्ट से प्रोटेक्शन ऑर्डर (सुरक्षा आदेश) की मांग कर सकते हैं, जो यह सुनिश्चित करेगा कि आपके साथ मारपीट या धमकी न हो।
3. मानसिक स्वास्थ्य का ध्यान रखें:
मनोवैज्ञानिक या काउंसलर से बात करें: आपकी मानसिक स्थिति को ध्यान में रखते हुए, किसी काउंसलर से बात करना बहुत महत्वपूर्ण हो सकता है। वह आपको मानसिक तनाव से निपटने में मदद कर सकते हैं।
सहारा लें: अगर आप परिवार के साथ रहने में असुरक्षित महसूस करते हैं, तो किसी दोस्त, रिश्तेदार या सरकारी आश्रय केंद्र से मदद लें।

Agar aap ek aurat hain aur aapko lagta hai ki domestic violence ka koi case hua hai, ho raha hai, ya hone wala hai, toh aap apne najdeeki police station jaake F.I.R (First Information Report) file kar sakti hain.
Agar police bole ki ye case unki jurisdiction mein nahi aata, toh unse Zero-FIR register karne ko bolo. Zero-FIR ka matlab hai ki aap kisi bhi police station mein FIR file kar sakte hain aur baad mein usse sahi police station transfer kar diya jayega.
Police aapka incident note karegi jab aap FIR file karenge aur aapse sign karne ko bolegi. Kripya karke double-check karein jo information unhone likhi hai, aur ensure karein ki koi galti na ho.
Agar aapko male policeman se baat karne mein uncomfortable feel hota hai, toh aap female officers ki assistance maang sakte hain.
Police ke alawa, aap protection officer, service provider ya Magistrate se bhi madad le sakte hain.
Online FIR
Agar aapke state mein online FIR file karne ki facility hai, toh aap online FIR bhi file kar sakte hain. Nahi toh, National Commission for Women website par jaake apni complaint file kar sakte hain.
Receipt number se aapko file number, user ID aur password mil jayega 10 din ke andar, jab zarurat padegi.

I’m a female of 25 years old and I’m a working professional. I’m currently living with my mother where she is being Narcissistic as involving in every matters and doesn’t giving me space and keeping on controlling me and my things as per her liking. She neither tried to understand me nor trusted me. She keeping on doing the things which making me more traumatized by verbal and physical abuse. My father didn’t cared me if I being okay emotionally and everytime he believed the stories made my mother against me. He neither questioned as is it true? Nor consoled me…
Recently I have had enough trauma and I dared to speak that I’m moving out and live by my own and help you out financially. But they refused and kept me locked. My mother immediately called her brother (maternal uncle) and he immediately landing into my house dragged my hand and hold on tightly back of my hair and neck and threatened me. What making me more painful is my mother stood there and watched as if nothing is happening like it’s normal thing to do. After that I dared to cal the police to help me to move out my parents house but the police came and listened to mother stories and barely talked with me even though I showed them the bruises I had. The police left saying I need immediate treatment from psychologist.
I don’t know whom to approach and seek for help. Even the law is not helping me even though I’m a major. I’m starving myself as I don’t want to live with trauma and abuse. I have sleep problems and when I think of these abusive times I will get a breathing problem.
Please help me to move out from abusive toxic mother’s house. PLEASE!

I am married for last 5 yrs. My wife and her parents forced me for the marriage and one day took me to the court without my knowledge and registered the marriage in court.. where nobody was present from my side.. after 1 yr my family came to know.. and then they decided to public this marriage with a formal function. After marriage my wife started misbehaving with me and my family and she state at my place only for one month. After that on her demand i shifted to the different city and left my old widow mother alone. I used to work abroad. My bank details.. and ATM card everything was kept at home and she used to transfer money to her parents and her brothers account.. spend unnecessarily… As much as she can. Whenever I used to come home she used to torture me and asked me to go back and join back early. We both were not physically active because everytime I tried she used toh say I am not interested. She never gets feeling. She is a lesbian I came to know later. She used to torture me when I used to talked to my mother or sisters. Now she asked me toh shift to her parents place. I got afraid that when I am staying at my place my wife and her family torturing me so much what will happen if I shift to her parents house permanently. I will become a slave. When I said no she called her brother took all the stuff..car.. scooty.. everything.. vacant the flat and went to her parents place.. I was out of station when she did this..when I came home.. nothing was there.. Finally after 5 yrs when I got fed-up I filed a divorce case against her. After getting this news she put all the false allegations against me and my family saying me and my family tortured her everytime.. but she was always staying in a different city. I used to stay abroad.. my sister’s and mother is staying in a different city.. my wife never stayed at my parents house. How can they torture her. She said we demanded dowry.. and her father gave me lakhs of rupees in dowry. She always forced me to buy everything on her name and I also didn’t deny just wanted to make her happy. But she took everything and now saying that her parents gave money for all this. I have full statement showing that i bought each and everything. Just to demand a big amount of allemony she connected my name with my colleague and she is making issue of this matter to demand allemony. There is no proof which shows that me and my colleague are in relationship.. she is just my known and helped me few times. My wife has put so many allegations on me after doing all these things with me and after taking everything. I have lost my job too because my wife send a letter to my office stating all these allegations and without any enquiry my office didn’t want to take chance they terminated me. I have no job.. no money.. nothing to stay. And now also she is filing so many cases against me. What should I do.

I am suffering from harrasment from my wife for the last 20 years. Few of them are: 1) She does not allow me to have my cell phone. I have to keep begging her to make call, or receive OTPs for Bank and other transactions. (2) She does not allow me to go out for a walk (3) She does not allow me to attend any Yoga class, or technical or any courses (4) She does not allow me to go for any work. All that she wants is lock me in a room whole day and night. Even after this, she accuses me having affair with someone and utter unparliamantery words. I have been tolerating this and many more for the sake of my children. Now all of them are settled abroad. As I no more can tolerate this, and cannot get out of the house, I am seeking your help please!

I’m really sorry to hear about the situation you’re facing. The behavior you’ve described amounts to mental and emotional abuse, which is a serious offense under Indian law. Here are some steps you can take:
Seek Support: It’s important to reach out to friends, family, or support groups who can provide emotional support during this difficult time. You don’t have to go through this alone.
Consult a Lawyer: Consider consulting with a lawyer who specializes in family law or domestic violence. They can provide legal advice on your options and guide you through the process of seeking help.
File a Complaint: You have the right to seek protection from abuse. You can file a complaint with the police or approach a local women’s helpline or counseling center for assistance. The police can take action against your wife under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code and the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005.
Obtain a Protection Order: You can apply for a protection order under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, which can restrain your wife from committing any further acts of abuse and provide you with necessary relief.
Consider Counseling: Family counseling or mediation may also be helpful in resolving conflicts and improving communication within the family. However, if the abuse is severe, counseling may not be effective, and your safety should be the priority.
Document Evidence: Keep records of any incidents of abuse, including dates, times, and details of what happened. This documentation can be useful if you decide to take legal action.
Remember, you have the right to live free from abuse and violence. Don’t hesitate to take steps to protect yourself and seek help from appropriate authorities and support services. You deserve to live a life of dignity and respect.

My sister was beaten by her husband only after 2 motnhs of marraige. She then decided to leave and cam back to maiden place expecting that the husband learns from his mistake and will call her back. Instead he filed a case for divorce within 6 months and is trying to settle it without any compensation. We did not file any case against him for a year. What should be our action to safeguard my sister’s future?

You can file a complaint under Section 498A IPC and as per the Domestic Violence Act. You can approach any police station and file complaint for domestic violence. They will direct you to a Protection Officer who can help you further.
By filing a criminal case, the harasser would be punished for the act of violence committed with jail-time and a fine. Your lawyer must inform the Court that both the cases have been filed. A criminal case can be filed for the following reasons:
• If the harasser drives a woman to commit suicide .
• If the harasser causes or tries to cause any grave injury to the woman or danger to the life or health of a woman.
• If the harasser affects the mental health of a woman to such a degree that it is a danger to her life.
• If the harasser through any words or physical actions causes any mental stress or psychological distress to the woman.
• If the harasser forces a woman to give dowry or unlawful demand for any property or valuable security.

First, record and document any type of conversation or evidence that shows that your sister has been beaten and abused by her husband. There is no limitation provided for filing a complaint under Section 12 of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and Section 498A for cruelty, so you can go ahead and file an FIR in any police station nearby. Under law, this FIR can be filed by the aggrevated woman or any of her relative.
Second, in the issue of divorce without compensation, the husband cannot refuse if the court compels him to pay unless your sister is re-married. With alimony, it is paid by the higher earning partner. So, if your sister earns more, the court will probably not award any alimony.

You are a victim of domestic violence, and your husband and his family members are mistreating you. You are from Bihar, and it appears that you are not being provided with food or water, and your husband is not communicating with you. You were thrown out of the house, and you sought help from the 112 emergency service, which temporarily resolved the situation. However, you are still afraid that your husband’s family members may harm you.
Here are some steps you can take to protect yourself and seek help:
Contact the local police: If you feel threatened or in danger, reach out to the local police station immediately. Explain your situation and ask for protection.
Contact a women’s helpline: Call the Women’s Helpline at 181 (Women in Distress Helpline) or 1091 (National Commission for Women Helpline) to seek help and support. They can provide guidance and assistance, including connecting you with counselors, legal aid, and shelter services.
Reach out to a local NGO or women’s organization: Many organizations work to help women in distress. Look for a local NGO or women’s organization in your area and contact them for support.
Legal recourse: Consult with a lawyer to discuss your options for legal protection, such as filing a domestic violence case under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005.
Document the abuse: Keep a record of the incidents of abuse, including dates, times, and any witnesses. If possible, take photographs of any injuries and keep any medical records. This information may be useful in court.
Reach out to family and friends: If you have supportive family members or friends, contact them for help and assistance. They may be able to provide you with temporary shelter or help you access resources.
Remember, you have the right to live a life free from violence and abuse. Don’t hesitate to seek help and support from the available resources to ensure your safety and well-being.

Section 13(1)(ia) of the Hindu Marriage Act,1956 allows both the wife and the husband to seek a divorce by alleging that their spouse has subjected them to cruelty after marriage. Therefore, even though there is no specific punishment for cruelty against husbands (other than the general penal provisions related to battery and assault, and IPC provisions on causing hurt/grievous hurt), the law recognises such cruelty as a ground for the husband to seek divorce. The instances that you have faced can constitute cruelty and you can file for divorce under your personal law. Further, if you want to file a police complaint, you can go to the police station and file an FIR under sections 319 to 326 (Causing hurt and grievous hurt).

Agar aapko jabardasti shaadi karwane ki koshish ki ja rahi hai, to aap kuch steps follow kar sakte hain:
1. Mahila Police Cell se Contact Karein: Apne shehar ki mahila police cell se sampark karein. Aapko us jagah ki details, jabardasti shaadi karwane wale vyakti ke baare mein likhit shikayat karni hogi, saath hi jagah aur tareekh bhi mention karein.
2. PWDW Act ke Tahat Domestic Violence ki Shikayat Darj Karein: Aap PWDVA, 2005 ke tahat apne mata-pita ya kisi aur parivarik sadasya ke khilaf domestic violence ka mukadma court mein darj kar sakte hain. Nyayadhish temporary restraining order jaari kar sakte hain jo aapko jabardasti shaadi se bachayega.
3.National Commission for Women se Sampark Karein: Aap apne vivahadhikar ki ulangan ke baare mein rashtriya mahila aayog mein shikayat darj kar sakte hain.
4. Vivah Ka Rad Adhikarik Taur Par Court Mein Mangwaayein: Agar shaadi ho chuki hai toh ek saal ke bhitar, aap court mein vivah ka rad mangwa sakte hain. Aapke vivahadhikar ka durupyog ya dabav ke karan, ek nullity decree ke tahat shaadi rad ho sakti hai. Parivarik nyayalay aise mamle sunne aur samapt karne ke liye sthapit kiye gaye hain.
Yeh kadam uthakar aap apne vivahadhikar ko bacha sakte hain aur apne swatantra chunav ka anubhav kar sakte hain. Agar aapko kisi bhi prakar ki madad ya salah chahiye, toh kripya ek mahila salahkaar se bhi sampark kar sakte hain.

Dear Sir,
Main aapko yeh patra likh rahi hoon taaki aapke saamne jo gambhir samasyaayein hain, jinhe aapne apni recent communication mein vyakt kiya tha, unhe address kar sakoon. Aapke pita ke dwara kiye gaye atyachar, emotional blackmail, sharirik hinsa ki dhamkiyan, aur bina aapki anumati ke psychotropic substances ka prashasan aapke kanuni adhikaron ka gambhir ullanghan hai, jo kai kanoonon, jaise ki aapraadhik aur manavadhikar kanoon ke tehat aata hai. Main aapko uplabdh kanooni upaaye aur suraksha ke liye aapko jo kadam uthane chahiye, unka vivaran dungi.
Vyaktigat Swatantrata aur Aavajahi ka Adhikaar: Bharat ke Samvidhan ke tehat aapko kaam ke mauke prapt karne aur desh ke andar bina kisi rukavat ke swatantrata se ghoomne ka moolbhoot adhikaar hai. Aapke pita ke dwara aapko kaam karne ya Bangalore jaane se rokna aapke moolbhoot adhikaron ka ullanghan hai, jise kanooni roop se challenge kiya ja sakta hai (Anuchhed 19 aur 21).
Aapraadhik Dhamki aur Utpeedan: Aap aur aapke dost ke khilaaf sharirik hani ki dhamkiyan aur jabardasti ki gayi kaarwai, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) 2023 ke Section 351 ke antargat aati hain jo aapraadhik dhamki se sambandhit hai. Iske alawa, bina aapki anumati ke psychotropic substances ka prashasan Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) 2023 ke Section 123 ke tehat ek aparaadh hai (zeher ya behosh karne wale padarthon ke madhyam se chot pahunchaane ka aparaadh).
Mansik aur Sharirik Utpeedan: Nirantar chalu sharirik aur mansik atyachar Domestic Violence Act, 2005 ke pravdhaanon ka bhi ullanghan karta hai. Aapko is kanoon ke tehat suraksha, aashray aur chikitsa sewa prapt karne ka adhikaar hai, jo court ke madhyam se protection order ke jaari hone ko bhi shamil karta hai.
Mansik Swasthya aur Samarthan: Yeh atyant aavashyak hai ki aapki mansik sthiti ko prathmikta di jaye. Agar aapko aatmahathya ke vichaar aate hain, toh main turant mansik swasthya professionals se samarthan lene ki salah deti hoon.
Mansik Swasthya Dekhbhaal Adhiniyam, 2017 ke tehat, har vyakti ko mansik swasthya sewaon tak pahunch ka adhikaar hai, jo sankat ke samay mein uchit upchaar sunischit karti hain.
Sujhaaye gaye Kadam:
Prashasan se sampark karein: Aapko turant apni local police ko dhamkiyon aur atyachar ki report karni chahiye. Aap relevant sections ke tehat ek FIR file kar sakti hain. Local police ko aisi shikayaton par action lena zaroori hota hai taaki aapki suraksha sunischit ho sake.
Kanooni Suraksha Prapt Karein: Domestic Violence Act ke tehat shikayat file karne se aapko protection orders milenge, jo aapke pita ko aapse sampark karne ya nuksan pahunchane se rokenge.
Chikitsa Saboot Ikattha Karein: Psychotropic substances ke prashasan ke sambandh mein saboot ikattha karein aur surakshit rakhein, jisme medical prescriptions ya gavaah jo in ghatnaon ki pushti kar sakein, shamil hain. Yeh saboot agar criminal charges uthaye jayein toh atyant mahatvapurn rahenge.
Surakshit Sthal par Jayein: Di gayi dhamkiyon aur khatron ko dekhte hue, yeh salah di jaati hai ki aap ek surakshit jagah par chali jayein. Kisi vishwasniya sangathan ya shelter home se madad lena is sthiti ke hal hone tak temporary accommodation pradan karne mein madadgar ho sakta hai.
Aapka adhikaar atyachar, jabardasti, aur dhamkiyon se mukt jeevan jeene ke liye kanoon dwara surakshit hai. Main sakht salah deti hoon ki aap local legal aid services ya kisi vakil se madad lein taaki aapki suraksha sunischit ho sake aur jimmedaar vyaktiyon ke khilaaf kanooni kaaryawahi shuru ho sake.
Agar aapko aur kanooni madad ya uplabdh sahayak sewaon ki jaankari chahiye, toh kripya mujhse sampark karne mein sankoch na karein.

My husband abuses me physically and verbally , also he vervally abuses my family
Anonymous
June 12, 2024
My mother in law abuse me and says bad things about my family also. Her behaviour changes in front of my husband and he also knows that she is not going to change. She uses very bad words and due to her bad behaviour with society people, police came last year but she is not changing at all. I get mental stress sometimes and get suicidal thoughts but I have two kids and I don’t want to die. Please help.

First, please talk to your husband about his mother’s behaviour. It seems like he is aware of the way his mother treats you but is not doing anything about it. Tell him that this is affecting your mental health to the point of suicidal ideation. You can ask him to talk to her and tell her to either change her behaviour or the only option is that she lives separately from you and your family. Tell him that this distance is necessary since her abuse has become a very serious issue for you. In terms of legal recourse, your mother in law’s behaviour falls within the definition of domestic violence under the Protection fo Women against Domestic Violence Act 2005 since it includes verbal abuse also. Please start recording the things she says to you so that you have proof for what you are claiming. You can either directly contact the police or you can contact the NGO or women’s organisation which is the notified service provider in your state (this information is available on the website of the social welfare or women’s welfare/ empowerment department of the state government) and ask them to help you in filing a ‘Domestic Incident Report’ against your mother in law and seek a protection order against her. Since the police have already been involved before, this should not be difficult since there is previous history of similar behaviour. You can also call the women’s helpline number in your state if your mother in law gets too abusive in your husband’s absence. You can also contact your state’s commission for women. The contact numbers should be available on the internet. You can also call the helpline numbers for violence against women, provided by the National Commission for Women – http://www.ncw.nic.in/helplines.
