Parents blackmailing me into marrying someone other than the girl I love

Parents are trying to force me away from the girl I want

I have been researching about solutions for all this, and I found that it’s my right, as well as my duty, to make the right decision for myself…but my parents say that they don’t care about Qur’an and Hadith. They actually blame me that I am hiding behind all this to serve my agenda.
