She is love someone but parents mentally torcher to marriage other one what can I do?
A.Dear Client,
In India, individuals have the right to choose their own partners and marry according to their free will, as long as they have reached the legal age for marriage (18 for females and 21 for males) and they are of sound mind. If someone is being forced into a marriage against their will, there are legal remedies available. If someone is being threatened or physically harmed by their parents or anyone else in an attempt to force them into a marriage, they can file a complaint with the police, who can take action based on the circumstances. It's advisable to engage a lawyer and, if needed, obtain a protection order from the court. She can file a domestic violence case under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 against her parents or any other family member in the court. A temporary restraining order would be issued by the magistrate preventing her family member from forcefully marrying her with someone. She can also file a complaint in national commission for women regarding the violation of her right to marry.
