In India, you can file for divorce based on grounds of cruelty, which can include emotional abuse and constant interference from in-laws. Your husband’s threats are a form of emotional blackmail and should not deter you from seeking legal recourse. Consult a lawyer who can guide you through the process, focusing on your daughter’s well-being and securing your rights.
