where are your parents. in case they are in north india, you may start living with them and fight the odds. in case you choose to fight along in Mah. you may face problems at the hands of police and your in laws. even in case the arrest warrants are issued against your husband, he cannot be arrested as offence of dowry is not recognized abroad. you may resort to a complaint under Domestic Violence Act.
