no matter what the facts are.

the wife is entitled to get maint. u/s 24 till disposal of the case.

Voidable marriages are different from Void marriages.

unless & untill annulled, a voidable marriage is VALID marriage for all the purposes.

While yes is the answer for both your questions, I would like to add that:

The doctrine of interim maintenance  u/s 24 of HMA is based on economic guardianship and the object of setion 24 in this regard to administer the justice after bridging economic gap wherever necessary between the parties.  Section 24 does not carve out an exception for the petition filed under Section 11 of HM Act. This is a beneficial legislation which covers a party who is not possessed of sufficient means for his/her maintenance and to bear the expenses of litigation. the purpose behind section 24 is to provide immediate necessary financial support to the party in the matrimonial proceedings who has no sufficient means to maintain herself or to bear the expenses of the case. Object of section 125 Cr.P.c. is to save the wife, children and parents from starvation. Section 24 of HMA do not stand in the way of magistrate granting relief u/s 125 of Cr.P.c. and same applies vice versa.  Section 24 of HMA and section 125 of Cr.P.c. are not alternative but concurrent and optional to the party entitled to make avail thereof.  Both powers are discretionary in nature.
