You can complain against both men and women for domestic violence. You can complain against the following:
- Your family: You can complain about your family, if they are subjecting you to domestic violence, in the following circumstances:
- If you are related to the harasser by blood, you can file a case against them. For example, your father, brother, etc.
- If you are related to your harasser by marriage, you can file a case against them, such as your in-laws, husband, etc.
- If you are related to your harasser by virtue of living together as a joint family, you can file a case against them. For example, your grandmother, uncle, adopted brother, etc. However, you can complain only against those who were complicit in the violence.(( Ashish Dixit v. State of UP & Anr. (2013) 4 SCC 176.)) For example, if you live in a joint family with ten people, and only your mother-in-law and husband subjected you to violence, you can complain only against them.
- Your live-in partner: If your live-in partner hurts or abuses you, you can file a complaint against him.
- Minors: You can complain against a minor who is subjecting you to domestic violence.(( Hiral P. Harsora v. Kusum Narottamdas Harsora (2016) 10 SCC 165.)) For example, if a 16 year old boy in your family is physically hurting you, then you can file a complaint for domestic violence.
While going to Court, keep in mind that you must have been subjected to domestic violence by someone with whom you have shared not only a domestic relationship but also shared a household.
Some states provide handbooks for ASHA workers where you can find more information on forms on violence 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.

You can go to your nearest police station and file a FIR against your brother. Make sure to provide details about the physical abuse, verbal threats, and any other harmful behaviour. Mention that he has threatened to kill you. The threat to kill you is covered under Section 506 IPC which is a non bailable offence. Your mother can file a complaint under The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and you can be included in the protection order. If you can, document any injuries, threats, or abusive behaviour. Photographs of injuries or recordings of threats can be valuable evidence in legal proceedings.

I understand that this is an extremely stressful situation to be in. Firstly, have an honest open communication with your parents and explain your goals and ideal timeline for all this, while acknowledging their desire to see you settled. But seeing as they are not ready to listen, be prepared to walk away. Remember that your safety and wellbeing is of utmost importance. Forced marriage is illegal and one cannot be married off without their consent at all. Remember that if it comes to that, it will be a very difficult situation for you and your family, and you will be forced to take legal measures. If you are a woman who is being forced, approach the National Commission for Women at 181. They might be able to assist you directly. Also know your legal rights and explain that if the situation arises you will not be afraid to take legala action. This may persuade your parents to listen to you. Throughout the course of action, you will need very strong conviction and be firm in your decision to not be married off. You, and only you, can choose who you want to marry and when. 1. S.366 IPC- Since they are trying to induce you to compel marriage, you can file a case under section 366 IPC. What they are trying to do is a very serious offence in the eyes of the law. For this, the convicts might be punished with imprisonment of up to 10 years and also fine. Remember that you don’t need to give in to the pressures exerted by them. Also, if the police is not helping you adequately, then directly file a court complaint under section 200 of the CrPC i.e., go to a magistrate’s court and directly state your complaint and you will get the help.
2. What your family members are trying to do is also punishable under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. Their actions constitute domestic violence as defined in section 3 of this Act, and you can file a case against them under this provision as well. Remember that this Act squarely covers the situation you are in- you are an aggrieved person within section 2(a) and the relationship you are sharing with your family members is a domestic relationship in terms of section 2(f).
Lastly, and importantly, contact the National Commission for Women and brief them about your situation so that your safety is not jeopardised. Apart from reaching out to them through their contact number, you can also register a complaint online by clicking here. You should also reach out to State Women Commissions simultaneously.

Hi.. My Mother in law constantly abuses her power and harasses my husband for money which creates bad environment in our personal life and mentally disturbs me. Can I file complaint against my mother in law for harassment and abuse.
Sikha
December 7, 2024
yes, you can complait about this in your nearest police station. Although mental harassment is not defined specifically under the Indian Penal Code 1860, a number of sections such as 294, 354, 354A, 498A, and 509 are applicable as harassment case law. In the legal sense, these are behaviours that appear to be disturbing, upsetting, or threatening.If your condition and circumstance fall under these, then a complaint can be filed. furthermore if you haven’t been insulted yourslef, a complaint can stil be filed under Section 503 and Section 504 deal with criminal intimidation and intentional insult with intent to provoke a breach of peace

Your friend’s mother has recourse under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act 2005. Her elder sister is included in the definition of domestic relationship since they are family members who live as a joint family. Your friend or the mother herself could approach the police station and ask to file a DIR (similar to FIR) under S 10. She could also approach a service provider under the DV Act which are usually social welfare associations/ women’s organisations/ NGOs – a list of such organisations is usually available on the state government website of the women empowerment/ social welfare/ family welfare department. She could also get a lawyer or ask the appointed protection officer (ask at the police station who the appointed protection officer is) to file an application directly before a magistrate under S 12 for a protection under S 18 and monetary relief under S 20 for all the cruelty she has been subjected to. Also, ask your friend and any family members who are in support of the mother to start collecting evidence of such cruelty and abuse as they happen such as audio-video recordings that can help her case.

We’re so sorry to read about your plight. Thank you for contacting Ask Nyaaya. Here’s what you can do: The wife can file a complaint against the husband in a police station or under the magistrate stating the grounds of divorce as cruelty. To constitute cruelty, the conduct complained of should be “grave and weighty” so as to come to the conclusion that the petitioner spouse cannot be reasonably expected to live with the other spouse. It must be something more serious than “ordinary wear and tear of married life”. The conduct taking into consideration the circumstances and background has to be examined to reach the conclusion whether the conduct complained of amounts to cruelty in the matrimonial law.

We’re so sorry to read about your plight. Thank you for contacting Ask Nyaaya. Here is the answer: There are a number of means and ways through which a woman can be harassed by her in-laws. The harassment may be either by her husband or her mother-in-law or by any other in-laws.
Cruelty may be either physical or mental. It is not necessary that to get justice against the in-laws a physical cruelty has to happen but a mental cruelty too would serve as a proper evidence to take a legal action against her in-laws.
The provisions of law dealing with the harassment of a woman by her in-laws are Sections 498- A, 509, 304-B, 306, of the Indian Penal(IPC), the Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961.
An aggrieved person may file an FIR under the abovementioned relevant provisions of the IPC.
A complaint can be presented to the Magistrate under Section 12 of the DV Act. Any other person can also file this complaint on behalf of the aggrieved person and sought the reliefs provided under the Act.

पुलिस
पुलिस स्टेशन जाओ
आप अपने क्षेत्र के पुलिस स्टेशन या किसी अन्य पुलिस स्टेशन से संपर्क कर सकते हैं और घरेलू हिंसा की शिकायत दर्ज करा सकते हैं। पुलिस एक डीआईआर/एफआईआर दर्ज करेगी और/या आपको जिले के संरक्षण अधिकारी के पास भेजेगी जो आपकी आगे मदद करने में सक्षम होगा।
संरक्षण अधिकारी
संरक्षण अधिकारी से संपर्क करें
शिकायत दर्ज करने के लिए जिले का संरक्षण अधिकारी आपके लिए संपर्क का पहला बिंदु होगा। संरक्षण अधिकारी आपको घरेलू घटना रिपोर्ट (डीआईआर) दर्ज करने में मदद करेगा, आपको मौद्रिक राहत, सुरक्षा आदि दिलाने के लिए अदालत में आवेदन करेगा। संरक्षण अधिकारियों की राज्य-दर-राज्य सूची यहां दी गई है। यदि आपको अपने क्षेत्र का सुरक्षा अधिकारी नहीं मिल रहा है, तो आप गैर सरकारी संगठनों, नागरिक समाज संगठनों और सेवा प्रदाताओं से संपर्क कर सकते हैं जो आपको किसी से संपर्क कराएंगे।

पुलिस के नेतृत्व में की जा रही जांचों की निगरानी और तेजी लाई जा रही है।
एनसीडब्ल्यू के समक्ष परामर्श या सुनवाई प्रदान करना, ताकि दोनों पक्षों के बीच विवाद का समाधान हो सके।
एक जांच समिति का गठन करना जो मौके पर जांच करती है, गवाहों की जांच करती है, साक्ष्य एकत्र करती है और घरेलू हिंसा के संबंध में सिफारिशों के साथ रिपोर्ट प्रस्तुत करती है।
आप या तो हेल्पलाइन नंबर 1091 पर कॉल करके, या ncw@nic.in पर ईमेल भेजकर या ऑनलाइन शिकायत दर्ज करके उनसे संपर्क कर सकते हैं। चूंकि एनसीडब्ल्यू नई दिल्ली में स्थित है, आप अपने राज्य में स्थित राज्य महिला आयोग से संपर्क कर सकते हैं और उनसे मदद मांग सकते हैं।
कुछ राज्य आशा कार्यकर्ताओं के लिए हैंडबुक प्रदान करते हैं जहां आप हिंसा पर प्रपत्रों के बारे में अधिक जानकारी पा सकते हैं, यह कहां हो सकती है और घरेलू हिंसा के खिलाफ सुरक्षा पाने के लिए शिकायत कैसे दर्ज करें। उदाहरण के लिए, छत्तीसगढ़, दिल्ली, झारखंड, मध्य प्रदेश और उत्तराखंड में आशा के लिए प्रकाशित इस पुस्तिका को देखें।

My father assaulted my mother in front of me recently, while I was staying with them for four days. I don’t live with them as I live in a different house. He’s been extremely abusive and violent to her and my brother and me our whole lives but hasn’t dared to hit me in the last decade and half since I don’t live with them and because he knows I’ll file a police complaint against him without any hesitation at all.
I secretly managed to record him asualting her and have the whole incident in videos with me.
I want to know if it’s possible for me to file a complaint of any type of abuse against him with the police, because my mother won’t do it out of fear of him. After what I saw him do to her I’m not afraid of him anymore. I just hate and despise him.
He needs to be stopped before he murders my mother. Please advise me on what options lie ahead of me.
