Filing a case on my mother

Dear client,

1)If she physically abuses you, you can lodge an FIR under Section 323 IPC (causing hurt) and Section 506 IPC (criminal intimidation) at the nearest police station.
2)Keep a detailed record of every incident of physical and emotional abuse. This includes dates, times, descriptions of the abuse, and any evidence like photographs of injuries.
3)If you and your sister are minors, you can reach out to the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) or a child helpline (1098) for protection and intervention.
4)In India, the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, provides legal protection against various forms of domestic violence, including physical, emotional, and psychological abuse. You can file a complaint under this Act.
5)If your father chooses, he can file for divorce under adultery and cruelty as grounds under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.
6)If you are financially dependent on your parents and feel unsafe, consider seeking help from trusted relatives, legal aid services, or NGOs that support victims of domestic abuse.

Dear Client,
You did not mention your age in the query which is essentially required to address the issue like yours. However, if you are a minor i.e, under 18 years, then you or on behalf of you any person can bring the matter to the notice of the District Juvenile Justice Board set up under Section 4 of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, by the State Government consisting of a Metropolitan Magistrate or a Judicial Magistrate of First Class not being Chief Metropolitan Magistrate or Chief Judicial Magistrate for exercising the powers conferred by the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 and discharging its functions relating to children facing domestic violence in the hand of family members. On the other hand, if you are an adult, then you can file a complaint against your abusive mother, who subjects you to domestic violence or hurt you mentally with abusive language in the local police station under Section 12 of the PWDV Act, 2005. Under Sec.12(1) of the Act, an aggrieved person or a Protection Officer or any other person on behalf of the aggrieved person may present an application directly to the Magistrate seeking one or more reliefs under this Act. Apart from this, you can make a complaint online (https://nhrc.nic.in/complaints/complaints/how-to-file-a-complaints) to the Chairperson, the National Human Rights Commission, New Delhi and the State Human Rights Commission along with the Chairperson, National Commission for Women and State Commission for Women who are empowered to investigate complaints related to domestic violence or atrocities faced by women by sending an email to ncw@nic.in or filing an online complaint on their official website. Further, you can also seek help from the NGOs who rendered dedicated service to the women in distress.
