Father abusing mother due to relatives’ interference — what action?

My father’s sisters frequently interfere in our family matters. After they visit, my father becomes aggressive and tells my mother to stay separate—cook separately and not touch anything. He also says he won’t give us anything. What legal action can I take to protect my mother and family?

You or your mother can file a domestic violence complaint under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. A magistrate can pass orders for safety, residence rights, and protection from interference. You can also seek counseling or file a complaint with the police against harassment and mental abuse.
