It is injustice and unethical for me or for any advocate to advice a working wOman-daughter-in-law to file a domestic violence complaint against her mother-in-law for remaining in a house belonging to her.against teh wishes of that mother-in-Law. It is your husband`s responsibility to provide shelter to you and your daughters and not of your mother-in-law.

Married wife is not entitled to claim in the properties of the mother-in-laws during her lifetime. However, if the mother-in-law dies intestate, then your husband is entitled to inherit the said property along with the other claimers. You and your heir have the right on your husband's share in the property.

Currently you can seek protection to live in the shared household of her mother-in-law under Protection of Women from Domestic Violence. The protection officer from the local police station will come for your rescue from being thrown out of the house. So you're not a helpless woman, police and NGOs are there for you. Contact some women's organisation of your locality as well who will scream on her.

Under the domestic violence law, u have a right to live in that house as it is a shared household. Merely because your husband is not the owner of the house, is of no consequence. You should therefore file a domestic violence case and seek protection orders so that you are not illegally evicted forcefully or otherwise from the house which belongs to your mother in law. You can also seek protection orders of not interfering with the room or portion of the house in your possession.

Hello
If your husband is the only son to your mother in law then you should not hesitate.
By considering the age of your mother in law, you can talk with her and try to give her understanding.
Except that your mother in law won't be ready then you approach to the court.
