498a and domestic violence act against senior citizen

Yes she can file the case against the husband age doesn't consider , she can make police complaint as well as private complaint case in the court , if you are doing it then stop immediately harassing her by doing any domestic violence upon her , it will spoil your life .

If senior citizens are involved for unnecessary reason then get Human Rights Commission involved. I did the same thing in my matter. Bitch kept on filling cases over and over repeating same story but applying different provisions. My 80 year old uncle was involved unnecessary and then we filed complaint in Human Rights Commission and right away within a month action was taken. Currently the matter is going to be submitted in court by human rights commission.
