Ma’am, if your family supports your rapist and abuses you, you can take legal action by filing a police complaint for rape and abuse. Seek a protection order under the Domestic Violence Act if needed. You can also approach women’s helplines and shelter homes for support. Consulting a lawyer will help guide you through the process and ensure your safety and rights are protected. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
