My husband and I are Hindu, married for 18 months. We just started living together with our baby a few months ago. We had a small argument the other day, and he sent me back to my parents’ home. Now he isn’t reaching out at all. What should I do?

Under Indian law, your husband’s actions constitute cruelty and abandonment. You have grounds to file for divorce or seek maintenance from him. It is advisable to consult a lawyer to understand your legal options and seek protection from any further abuse.
