MR JOGESHWAR,
COMPENSATION FOR WHAT?
WHY FOR A HUSBAND WILL PAY MONEY TO HIS ABLE BODIED WIFE?
IF LOVE EXISTED BETWEEN THEM - THEN THIS QUESTION CAN NOT ARISE.. A HUSBAND HAS THE RIGHT TO DONATE ANY AMOUNT TO HIS WIFE.
BUT HERE CASE IS DIFFRENT, MONEY FLOWING FROM A HUBAND TO HIS 'SO CALLED' WIFE BY ORDER OF A COURT.
HERE LOGIC BEHIND THE MAINTENANCE AND THE CONCERNED ACT IS IN QUESTION.
THINK IN A LITTLE DIFFRENT WAY, A BROTHER (SUPPOSE THIS BROTHER AND THE SAID HUSBAND ARE SAME PERSON) IS WILLING TO PAY SOME AMONT TO HIS SISTER. CAN A COURT SAY THAT, - AS ONCE YOU PAID THIS AMOUNT, YOU HAVE TO PAY THE SAME, REST OF YOUR LIFE?
