(d) [TIP : In the type of question involving two parties the role of a peace maker. So you must play your cards in such a way that you do hurt the interest of either party] 

(a) As an administrative authority one has to resort to the course of law. In this case the views of both parties must be taken into consideration before resorting to any action. 

(b) Counselling the lady to adjust would be the most foolish thing to do. If she had been able to adjust she would not have come to you in the first place. No woman in her senses would like to break her own home. Especially not a newly-wed bride. 

(c) Her parents may not want to approach you at all. They would not want to spoil their daughter's married life. Considering the amount of money that is spent in traditional Indian marriages. It is only natural that parents expect their daughters to adjust and do not want to approach any one for help. 

(d) If she had to lodge a complaint with the police she need not have approached you. The idea is to arbitrate between both parties.
