In addition to the above listed option, you may also:

1. Approach a "protection officer" under the Domestic Violence Act;

2. Demand your right of residence in the "shared home" and live there with dignity as a matter of right since that is your "matrimonial home".

3. Claim back all your money and your mom's money taken away by your husband;

4. Claim compensation for the "violence" suffered by you.
