Yes, MIL can file a dv case against her DIL. The provisions of dv act are applicable to all the women in domestic relationship who suffers domestic violance at the hands of the respondant and thus equally applicable to MIL, DIL alike. She can file dv on the ground of whatever illtreatement / abuse she is receiving at the hands of the daughter in law and can seek protection orders, compensation etc
