1)file police complaint against your husband under section 498A of IPC for continuous acts of cruelty
2) mention husband forcibly takes your monthly salary
Yes surely. A criminal complaint under section 379 IPC is maintainable to the jurisdictional police station.
Forcefully snatching money cannot be termed as theft, but an act of violence and an offence punishable under criminal laws,
You can lodge a complaint on the grounds cruelty, violent assaults and criminal intimidation.
