This query is : Resolved
an educated girl of poor family whose father is a cart-puller gets married to an engineer whose parents are working in govt. sector through the matrimonial service.
being a poor man the father and his brother manage to afford all the spends on marriage and sagai(both the function was funded by the girl side)hoping that this will satisfy the in-laws.
after some time the girl is harrased by the boy for not bringing the car and the gold given not upto their expectations. the girl is driven out of the room and the in laws never ever ask the boy for this ill treatment.
girls gets pregnent and the humiliation never stops. she is made to work during pregnancy despite the doctor advice to take bed rest. ultimately she had a miscarriage due to the metal duress and pressure.
no one ever helps her even in illness she is forced to work to serve them as she was purchased as a bonded labour.
not this all the time she is told she is characterless and she has affairs with others. bearing all this humiliation and ill treatment she finally decides to return to her parents. and father in law abuses her in front of her parents for being a characterless and even threatens to face dire consequences if she has any legal course against the family.
this is happening in our society and still we think girls are taking wrong benefit of laws.
NOW WHAT SHE CAN DO TO SAVE HER AND HER FAMILY? WHAT ARE THE PROVISIONS OF LAW IN HER FAVOUR? HOW CAN SHE FIGHT AGAINST THE INFLUENTIAL PERSONS?
ANY WAY OUT??????

Now what the girl want?
If she wishes to punish the culprits then she can file case u/s 498A IPC for getting her in laws arrested and later tried under that charge.
She can file case PWDV Act for claiming maintenance for herself and the coming child.
However before all these she can make last ditched attempt to save the marriage.

Dear Mr. Suni Kumar,
From the query I presume you are a lawyer, isn't it?
The girl has to be bold to face her-in-laws, file police complaint better to move to CRIME AGAINST WOMEN CELL) against cruelity committed upon her and seek maintenance.

Agreeing with expert above I will add laws like DV Act 498a are meant fo9r help of such like persons only.
since the tormentors are also Govt servant they are liable for disciplinary action as well.
she has two choices
either
be bold and take shelter of law
or
suffer and never complaint

Lodge a complaint with the police immediately and book a case u/s 498A, simultaneously, prefer a complaint with CAW cell. and also a complaint under DV Act, such pressure tactics will make the offenders realize their mistake and some reliefs can be obtained.
