The police team helped the woman get back into her in-laws' house and the situation is normal now, said Pravin Ranjan Singh, Superintendent of Police (City), Bijnor. On the use of bulldozer, he said the police used force as the family was not agreeing to let the woman in.



The husband's family started harassing her a few days after they got married in 2017, her father said, adding that they also demanded ₹ 5 lakh and a Bolero car. "On their demands not being filled, she was thrashed and thrown out of the house. She had been staying with us since 2019.
