Betrayed by my husband

I got married last year as per Hindu rights and rituals. From the very first day of my marriage, my husbad has been mentally harassing me and threatening me a divorce! I also gave up my job just to make my marriage work , and joined him abroad. But within no time , he found reasons and sent me back to my parents house by force.

I am currently with my parents ,and my husband snapped all communications with me.

He forced me and made me write a mail saying that I have agreed for a mutual consent divorce. But this mail was written by force and not by choice.In the mail I have also accused him of domestic violence and dowry harassment , which has been done to me. He is now using this mail as a proof for my consent.

I want to go back to his parents house (my in laws house ) and live with them. is it possible??

I want to save this marriage , and give it a second chance.

Can I go back to my in laws house?

If you want to save your marriage and give it a second chance you can go back to your in laws house.

You have full rights to go back to your matrimonial house, nobody can stop you from entering into that house.Your marriage is subsisting hence until you opt for divorce or it has been dissolved by a decree of divorce through a court of law, you are the legally wedded wife of your husband and he is duty bound to protect, maintain you and provide you with the basic essentials of life. If you are ready to condone his acts of cruelty and ready and willing to live with him by resuming the discontinued marital voyage, the court cannot interfere in your decision until there is a valid and substantial reason/ground against you for which your decision of rejoining him may not be approved of. As of now, your query is that whether you can go back to your matrimonial house or not?, yes, you are legally entitled to reside in your matrimonial house as of now, avail it.

Thanks... One small clarification, once I n my parents were made to sign a statement on stamp paper forcibly by him n his parents . The contents of ten bond were that , I am my parents responsibility n my marriage will be on trail basis for 3 months, and my parents will bear the responsibility of my actions... If things don't work , then we should break this marriage.

Is it possible to nullify this bond ...? Or will this affect my decision to go back in any way....
