1 year ago
I lodged police complaint of domestic violence against husband and in-laws. After that if I want to live with my husband, can I live with him? Can he deny live with me in matrimonial house? What are my residential right after domestic violence police complaint?
A.Hello,
Every woman, in India after her marriage is having a right to reside in her matrimonial home. The right of residence of a woman may form a part wife's right to maintenance. But in the case of Domestic Violence, it in itself is a right, under section 17 of the Protection of women from Domestic Violence Act,2005.
