Yes you can seek protection under this act. Meet to SDM. Take help of a lawyer. You may seek injunction from civil court also.

Apply under Senior Citizens Act here the Tribunal apart from giving maintenance upto rS 10.000/- maximum may pass restraint order against your forceful eviction.

Agreed with Expert's advise as above
+ Try DV Act against ur son thru ur Wife. It protects ur shared household, residence, and damages + maintenance.
