Legal Question in Family Law in India

Dear Sir,

We are a joint family in Delhi, we live with my in-laws n my sister in-law(husbands sister) and we have two kids. My husband works with his father and we live in house which is owned by my father in-law. My father in-law thinks, Me n my husband are trying to stop my sister in-law from getting married, as if we do so, later on in life all the property can be passed to our name.As if my sister in -law would be unmarried, why would she need any property.

My father in-law has no proof or evidence which supports his doubts, but he keeps giving torturing comments and tells us to leave the house.Currently we are not in a financial situation to leave the house and live separately. But my father in-law has spoiled the peace of mind and even has started sharing these things with people outside home. This is highly humiliating, please tell us a way out of this. Is there is a legal section against such humiliation and we can give some notice, which scares him and he stops humiliating.

We have even given him a letter in writing which mentioned that we are not interested in any of my father-inlaw's properties and he can donate it to any trust, but that also didn't help.

Looking forward for your prompt response.

That is your matrimonial home and no one can drive you or your husband out of that house. Keep calm and ignore what he says. You may drop in a detailed query at [email protected]
