A.Hi,
There are several NGOs that help out with at-risk women, you can look up some of them online. As you are an adult, the police cannot compel you to return to your parents even if they file a missing persons complaint. Such false cases can also be quashed by the High Court under Section 482 CrPC. Your parents can be found guilty for making false cases under Section 209 IPC.

A.Hi,
You will have to find alternative accommodation first and then move there. As you are an adult, the police cannot force you to return to your parents, you can have any false complaints quashed by the High Court.

A.First, set your goal. You have not mentioned in your post that what exactly you want to do in your life. Unless and untill you have clear objectives you will not be able to convince others regarding your decision.

Once, you will be ready with your objectives situation will be different all together.
