You have the right to file a police complaint for abandonment and seek legal recourse for maintenance from your husband and his family. You can also pursue a divorce and seek custody of your daughter. Consult a lawyer specializing in family law for comprehensive legal advice and guidance on your options.

Could she file other charges against us if we don’t appear? Would our divorce case lapse? Or should we hire a lawyer just to give our acceptance at the hearing and get the transfer done quickly? Please advise.
