How can a girl legally escape forced marriage and confinement?
The girl's family has confined her at home, not allowing her to go anywhere, seized her phone, and is forcing her into marriage while threatening her with harm if she refuses. What legal steps can the girl take in such a situation?
In this situation, the girl should immediately contact the police to file a complaint about forced marriage, confinement, and threats. She can also approach the nearest Women’s Welfare Cell or file a writ petition in the High Court for protection. The authorities will take action under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, which provides protection from threats and forced marriages.
