MUMBAI: Observing that the rights of senior citizens, as conferred by Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, cannot be used as weapon in proceedings initiated by the daughter-in-law under the provisions of Domestic Violence (DV) Act, sessions court rejected the plea of a senior citizen couple from Chembur who wanted their estranged daughter-in-law to be evicted from their home.
Their son had moved out and rented a separate flat in the area. Estranged, the daughter-in-law refused to move into that flat with him.
