Is there any law to protect my child

Respected legal fraternity,

 

This is further to the discussion I have been having on this forum since last 1 year.

I will quickly explain in short. Husband left home 2 years back and started pressurizing for divorce through legal notices from lawyers. I filed RCR to bring him back. In response to it, he filed a divorce petition against me in court.

I am not at all ready for divorce and have tried all possible ways out for a re-conciliation. He is settled abroad now and I stay alone in my matrimonial home in india with my daughter. We finished a lot of conselling sessions and mediation too. But he is as firm for a divorce as i am firm for a re-conciliation. I am willing to live life as per his terms and conditions. Ours is a love marriage of 16 years.

Now his parents have broken all contacts with me and my daughter. I am fine with all this, because it is natural on the part of a boy's family to support their son and not their daughter-in-law. But I am not able to tolerate this injustice being meted out to my daughter.

Do I have a legal remedy to stop this injustice to her. I have been encouraging her to keep good relations with all of them because I dont want the child to suffer when she is not at fault. I have been trying to avoid any kind of allegations on them so far. I haven't levelled any charges against them because I am keen on making the relationship work.

But now it is getting a bit too much. Can anyone please advice how do i exercise legal rights for my child.

What rights do you want for your child?

What I was trying to ask is  this. Is there any way I can protect my child from going through mental torture by my in-laws. Is there a law where I can file a case on my in-laws for neglecting / ignoring their own grandchild.

They have a right to break relations with me because their son himself is not wanting to keep our marriage alive. But why should the child be made to suffer ? Can they not be loving to the child atleast ?

Your's is an exact "vice versa" case of what is normally seen here, regarding the child. If they actually loved the child, they would not desert. That is all i can say.
