You have not discussed your case or issues without which you want to clarification.

Well, domestic violence act will not be applicable to the people who do not belong your shared household.

You want get an injunction against the relatives for your grievances against them, well what is the grievance, whether they have indulged into criminal assault or atrocities against you and your mother?If they have done any illegal act or physical abuses, you can lodge a complaint with the police for initiating necessary legal action against them. If the police is not responding properly or found to be ineffective you may approach judicial magistrate court with an application under section 156(3) cr.p.c. for addressing your grievances with a direction to the concerned police for investigation and necessary action as per law.

Engage a lawyer to start the process to file for injunction. The court can issue the necessary directions even on the first hearing if need be. The cost will be the fee of your lawyer which I cannot tell.
