Dear Madam,
Under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, domestic violence includes:
Physical abuse (beating, pushing, threats)
Verbal & emotional abuse (insults, humiliation, intimidation)
Economic abuse (denial of money, property, essentials)
Sexual abuse
Harassment by any family member in a shared household (not only husband)
You do not need to leave the house to take action.
