Asked for money and all my father's pension they took away. 5. One night they creayed a situation and I was asked to leave house at 2 in night as my husband did not come home, I forced to roam on road at 2 in search of him. This was too much. 6. There are so many such instances. 7. My father died of hypertension, my in laws created public insult of mine in front of my family on cremation day. 8. Created situation which lead me to attempt suicide and have developed sucidal tendencies because of day to day torture. ------- Current Situation 1. I started staying seprately, 1.5 yrs 2.

Dear, As a part of compensation it will depend on many factors, but these says courts are making sure that a women gets a reasonable amount which was spent by them at the time of marriage .... I think cruelty is the best ground and it can take like 2 years.... Property in which you dad money is invested is registered in his name or joint name ????? Kapil Chandna Adv 9899011450

Hi Kapil sir,

Thanks a lot for looking into issue.

Yes it is registered in Joint Name. what does it makes difference? I have possession of the property, this was advice by my one of frd.

I do not need any thing as such but just want to make sure justice is done. Even though I kept all options open these folks greed did not end.

How about part in property acquired after marriage and fore-father's property. I would prefer to donate that money once case is over and lesson is taught. 

Also today they asked for mutual agreement now after my sibling's intervention, what all I can ask for in this case?

can I ask like 50% of salary till I get remarry?

can I ask 50% in property acquired after marriage?

Can i ask 50% in forefather's property?

Can I ask repayment to my sibling's loan?

-Vishal
