A.Dear Client,
If you possess strong evidence of mental cruelty and harassment you faced at your matrimonial home, you can lodge an FIR with the concerned Police Station u/s.498A of IPC against your husband and other family members of your in-laws' house who are involved in the criminal act and simultaneously file a complaint under Sec.4 of the PWDV Act, 2005 before the Protection Officer or the Magistrate. Upon receipt of a complaint of domestic violence, the Protection Officer or the Service Provider has to prepare a DIR in Form 1( as provided in the Domestic Violence Act) and submit the same to the Magistrate and copies of the same to the police officer in charge of the concerned police station. Considering the complexity involved in the DV cases, it is advisable to hire an expert Advocate to access justice and appropriate relief in the matter.

A.Dear Client,
In India, you can approach the Crime Against Women (CAW) Cell, which is designed to handle complaints related to harassment and cruelty against women. You may file a complaint with them detailing the harassment you have faced. They may conduct an investigation and provide assistance. Depending on the circumstances, you may be eligible to seek protection orders such as a restraining order against your husband or in-laws to prevent further harassment.
