What legal action against in-laws harassing me mentally and physically?
My son is 17 years old and currently studying in 10th standard. Since my husband's death 8 years ago, I have been mentally harassed by my in-laws. They raise their hands, abuse me, lie, and despite several warnings, it continues.

You can file a case under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. Hitting, verbal abuse, and mental torture are punishable. File a complaint at the nearest police station or women’s helpline. You can also seek protection, residence rights, and maintenance from the court.
