Is it legal for a married woman to live independently and work, as I am educated and capable of earning? My husband is not accepting this and says that according to the law, I should only stay with him and his family (I cannot work if I stay with his family).
Ma’am, it is legal for a married woman to live independently and work in India. There is no law requiring a woman to stay with her husband's family or stop working after marriage. The Indian Constitution guarantees the right to equality and freedom to work. If your husband is pressuring you, you can seek protection under the Domestic Violence Act. Consult a lawyer for legal advice and support if needed. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
