My husband and I have been married for 12 years and have two children. My sister-in-law married my brother but left him after only three months to live with her colleague in Hyderabad. She then left him for good and has been living with us for the past year. My in-laws also moved in with us last year. Since then, they’ve been constantly pressuring me to pay half of all the bills or leave the house. My sister-in-law even physically assaulted me and stopped me from cooking in the kitchen. My husband is unemployed, so he claims he can’t do anything to help, saying “earn your own money and eat your own food.” They’re clearly taking revenge for my sister-in-law’s divorce.

You’re facing an extremely difficult situation. Your in-laws and sister-in-law are attempting to exploit you financially and emotionally. You can file a police complaint regarding the assault and seek legal advice regarding their pressure, as well as possible eviction if they are refusing to contribute financially while living in your home.

Namaste, I’m from Hyderabad, Telangana, and completed my graduation in 2014. I married Sunayana Singh in a temple on August 9th, 2014. I am a Christian (BC-C) and she is a Hindu (ST). We had to report threats from her parents to the police and sought their protection. After three months, we moved in with my family who accepted us, but her parents refused.

My wife was working in a good job in her hometown and doing her post-graduation part-time. After our marriage, she requested to stay with her parents for a while to complete her studies. She finished her post-graduation after seven months and then quit her job. I brought her to Delhi, but after a month, her parents called, asking her to return as they missed her.

A woman’s father married her mother in 1980 and they had a daughter. He later secretly divorced her mother, claiming she agreed to give up all rights to their daughter and her share of his property. He then married another woman and changed his job records to reflect this new marriage. The woman’s mother eventually secured a full and final divorce settlement in 2006. The father then changed his daughter’s name to match his second daughter’s name, even though their birthdates were different, and also changed his job records to reflect this. He had previously forced his first wife and daughter out of their home and never provided for his daughter. Now, the daughter has discovered the fraudulent divorce, her father’s actions, and feels emotionally and financially abused. Can she file a petition in court under the Domestic Violence Act 2005?
