2 years ago
I am an 18 years college student which is constantly threatened by my father to be married underage and to stop my studies. I am physically, emotionally as well as psychologically harrased by my parents and neighbour. How can complaint against them?
A.Dear Sir,
Now, marriageable age is increased to 21 years as such you can legally say to your father that you cannot be forced to marry before completing 21 years and in the meanwhile approach Police if your parents physically assault you.
