Summons were issued against Vikramaditya Singh along with his mother Pratibha Singh, sister Aparajita and brother-in-law Angad Singh in the case of domestic violence.

Sudarshana said that her husband Vikramaditya said many times that she did not bring dowry according to his status. He commented that he belongs to a higher family and she belongs to a lower family compared to his. Sudarshana says that she was subjected to mental and physical torture.
