Harassment by mother-in-law

1) your best option is to file for divorce by mutual consent  . since your husband refuses to stay separate with you and your mother in law is making your life miserable better take divorce and move on in life 

2) if you dont want divorce you can file complaint against your husband and in laws under DV act . you can seek right to stay in matrimonial home or laternative accommodation . 

3) you can also seek maintenance from your husband and compensation for mental torture you have undergone . 

4) you can also seek a protection order from court under Dv act .

1. It is a common problem in the lives of many newlywed couples.
2. insecurity of mothers after marriage of their sons is commonplace example in india.
3. Your problem has not reached such an extent where I can advise you to go for dissolution of marriage. On the contrary stick to your husband as he is your only source of support in your matrimonial home.
4. Wait for more. With the passing of years your mother will start catching up with her age and her wits as well.
5. Do not lose your husband as it would amount ending the marriage. If you want to end marriage then only go for divorce and maintenance and other criminal cases

1. You and your husband may consider moving out to a separate accommodation to reside peacefully.

2. If your husband does not support you then you may file a case for domestic violence to seek the right to reside peacefully in your matrimonial home.

3. You may also seek maintenance from your husband. This apart, you can seek compensation for the domestic violence which you have suffered. 

4. Last but not least, if you believe that your marriage does not have a future then you may convince your husband to apply for mutual divorce, failing which you may unilaterally file for divorce.

1. This is a common problem,

2. Your mother in law also will lodge a number of complaints against you,

3. It more a domestic problem than a legal proble,

4. I do not think that you will agree for a divorce with your husband on account of your mother in law,

5. It may also a fact that your husband will not agree to leave his ailing mother and seperate from her,

6. If your husband agrees, leave the house and take up a seperate rented house, 

7. If he does not agree, adjust with your said problem in everybodys' interest.

Hi, it is better you tried to solve your problem amicably and if you go on for a legal remedy then ultimately divorce is the only solution and  from your narration it is common problem in every house hold.

(2) Tried to convince  your husband and live separately from your mother-in-law and problem start with your mother-in-law and i don't think there is big difference between you and your husband and if you go for divorce your family life will be strained so it is my advice tried to solve the problem amicably.

Dear Querist
first of all think about the future, if you are able to live with your husband with his family or not ready to live with him.

if you are ready to live with him with his family then try to settle the matter amicably with the help of the others, as relatives and friends.

if you are not willing to live with them then you may take legal action against them, you may file a domestic violence case against them u/s 12 of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act-2005 and can claim protection, residence, maintenance, compensation.

if there is any dowry demand then you may file a 498A case against them before police or court.

if you are unable to maintain yourself then you may also file a maintenance petition before family court u/s 125 of Criminal Procedure Code-1973

you may also file a divorce case against your husband, if he is also ready for divorce then it will be better to go for Mutual Consent Divorce.
