Woman Seeks Divorce After MIL Uses Her Make-Up Without Consent

In a bizarre incident, a woman sought divorce from her husband because her mother-in-law was using her make-up without her permission. The woman who lives in Agra's Malpura alleged that her husband took the side of her mother-in-law and threw her and her sister out of the house after an altercation.

As per reports, the woman and her sister married two brothers eight months ago. Everything was going well until the woman found out that her mother-in-law was using her make-up secretly.

She filed a complaint at Parivar Paramarsh Kendra’ (Family Counselling Centre) of Agra Police and alleged that her mother-in-law would wear her make-up products even while staying inside the house. She further said that whenever she had to use the make-up to go to an event or something, she would not have the make-up products as they were already used by her mother-in-law. 

When the woman tried to confront her mother-in-law and stop her from wearing make-up inside the home, the two had a verbal fight. Later on, the other-in-law told about this to the woman's husband who also fought with the woman. After an escalated argument, the husband threw the woman and her sister out of their matrimonial home. She also approached the Malpura police station to register her complaint. 

The woman and her sister live at their parental home for two months. 

Not just about cosmetics, but also domestic abuse: the woman

On Sunday, Amit Gaur, a counsellor at Parivar Paramarsh Kendra said that the woman and her mother-in-law were called for counselling. He added that the woman was adamant about getting a divorce. She said that the matter was no longer about the fact that her mother-in-law used her cosmetics without permission. It had now extended into a matter of domestic abuse committed against her by her husband. 

Gaur further added that now the woman and her husband will be called for counselling.
