What legal help exists for parents thrown from home?

A son forced his elderly parents out of their home after transferring property—originally in their name—to his wife. Now he refuses to give them any share, and the daughter-in-law abuses them verbally every day. They are homeless and in distress. Is there any legal help available for them?

Under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, the parents can file a complaint before the SDM to reclaim their property and seek maintenance. The transfer of property can also be legally reversed if done under pressure. The law fully protects abandoned and mistreated parents.
