Hi all,
I had a case in hand, that the wife isclaiming Maintenance who is working in a central govt department and earning 20+K per month aginst her husband who is a business man and his turn over is Rs 4 to 5 lakhs P.A in a divorce proceedings intiated by him. According to his wife out of their wed lock a girl child was born and at present she is doing her graduation, and as per her pleadings her in come is not sufficiant to maintain house hold expenditure as well as her daughters further education, and to perform marriage of her, hence she requested the court to direct the husband to provide Rs 15,000/- per month towards maintenance charges of her, and her daugther,
Now My question is being a central govt employee, having handsome salary, the petition filed by wife is maintanable? whether husband is liable for the same?
If any citations are there kindly intimate me.
