Section 12 hota kya hai?

Section 12 bolta hai ki agar kisi mahila ke sath domestic violence hua hai — jaise marpit, gaali, torture, paise na dena, mental pressure, sexual abuse, ya ghar se nikal dena — to wo Magistrate Court me ek application de sakti hai.

Isme mahila ye demand kar sakti hai:

• Protection order

• Residence order (ghar me rehne ka right)

• Monetary relief (maintenance, expenses)

• Child custody

• Compensation

Application kaise file hoti hai?

Section 12 ke andar application 3 tariko se file ho sakti hai:

 Mahila khud file kare

Mahila khud court jaakar application de sakti hai. Advocate lena optional hota hai.

 Protection Officer ke through

Protection Officer FIR jaisa Domestic Incident Report (DIR) banata hai aur magistrate ko bhejta hai.

 NGO, relative, neighbour

Agar mahila khud nahi aa sakti to koi dusra uski taraf se application file kar sakta hai.

Application me kya likhna padta hai?

Ek simple Section 12 application me ye points include hote hain:

• Mahila ka naam, address

• Respondent ka naam (husband/in-laws)

• Relationship

• Violence ka detail — kab, kaise, kitni baar

• Agar koi proof ho to mention

• Mahila ko kis section ke under kya relief chahiye

• Income details (maintenance ke liye)

Court application ko kaise handle karta hai?

Jaise hi application file hoti hai:

 Magistrate 3 din ke andar application ko check karta hai

Ye sirf “consideration” hoti hai.

 Court notice bhejta hai Respondent ko

Husband/in-laws ko ek date di jaati hai court me appear hone ki.

 Phir dono sides ki sunwai hoti hai

Mahila aur respondent dono apna version dete hain.

Section 12 ka main purpose kya hai?
