Yes.

4.    whether live in relation should be legalised?

According to me, no.

practically it is not possible.

5.    can any NGO representative file petition on behalf of 1000 women facing the same problem in the courtt?

: May file. I hope it will be entertained. But the first and foremost question will come that - why they did not go through the formal marriage?

"also he has stopped paying rent for the flat where they had been living...and girl has informed him that she is 3 months pregnant....."

: this may help to file a dv case for residence.

you reply is SUPER SIR

sir can you cite some case laws relating this topic

they did nt get married because boy ddnt want to  bind himself into legal contractual relationship...even though a gal files petition to claim mention right on wat legal provision court wil grant such rights?b'cos live-in relationship doesnt create any rights n obligation on any party...

domestic violance act applicable on such relationship.

can you cite some case laws --  matter discussed several times in several threads; you will get it there.

Sir,

When the relation is not legal - then - how come the Domestic Violence is applicable? Secondly the opposiite party can even prefera fallse complaint to pressure the other.Thirdly when the lady / girl do not have any protection - why should the maintenance is given ?- is it to protect the child?

When the relation is not legal - then - how come the Domestic Violence is applicable?

--  the relation is not illigal.

it does not attract marriage laws of this country.

domestic violence attract by virtue of it's provisions. those who are living in same residence, there, female shareholders can complain against their male share holders of the residence.
