Thanks Satyanarayanan sir!!
@Renuka ji,
I am not oversmart. I just want to hit back in the same way how illegitimate people are trying to grab money from like me innocent people. I can't write all what happened to me in this forum.
Before becoming the vicitim of these biased laws, I want to save me and my family with the help of this kind of forums.
No other intention and don't want to hurt anyone and don't want to commit any kind of illegal things. I am just trying to be cautious in advance.
Thank you for the reply!!
Sidharth 06 February 2016
Yes, your plan will work.
No need to show expenditure receipts.
There are number of ways to reduce or deny maintenance.
Don't worry !!

Thans a ton Sidharth Sir. Really your words fill some confidence in me.
I am from Andhra pradesh and mine is poor family back ground and recently joined in IT industry(In chennai), getting only 35000 Rs/- a month. Apart from that, no other assets and no other sources of income. My parents are completely depend upon me for thier survival. They live seperately in my village.
If I loose some amount in the name of maintenace to unscrupulous wife, I can't send any money to my parents.They will suffer lot.

Dear Krish,
You are also advised to maintain medical expenditure evidence/ details of your parents.
Krish 06 February 2016
Thank you for the reply Augustine Sir and Sidharth Sir!!
@ Augustine Sir,
My wife has just studied 12th standard only and she is house wife. She never worked. Also, Our way of life style is lower middle class.
@Sidharth Sir,
My parents feel sick every now and then but they are not severe health issues. So I think I can not show any medical expenditure documents.

i filed divorce and a big sec24hma awarded against me (in favor of my wife). i took lot of personal loan to pay the amount and my travel & living expenses to the court for every hearing. i am paying because my wife misused the laws. i will come out of 498a and DV in near future and then i will get a chance to file criminal cases on her and paretns & relatives and recover the same money.
