Dear Members
A woman has filed petition under section 125 CrPC seeking maintenance from her husband. She is employed and getting salary. At the interim maintenance stage, even after written applications from respondent, she only filed affidavit on salary income but has not submitted salary slip. Husband has no means to verify whether the salary amount disclosed in affidavit is true or false. Now respondent husband is to file reply on the issue of interim maintenance along with affidavit.
How can woman claim interim maintenance without filing her salary slip when she has admited she is employed. Is there any judgement which says that filing of salary slip is must and mere affidavit is not sufficient.
Thanking You
