The father's obligation to give such separate maintenance to his children .

Second judgment that may help to husband
https://www.indiankanoon.org/doc/1512218/
If a father is a poverty-
stricken and cannot therefore
provide maintenance to his
children, while their mother is
affluent, the mother must provide
them maintenance subject to
reimbursement by the father when
his financial condition improves

But childrem must be impleaded as party.
Under sec 24 of HMA one may ask for maintenance for child also, but if wife is working and husband is not working then child has already decided that it would live with mother. In above case wife can't demand donation in the name of 'child' which is eyond the means of the husband.
Under 26 of HMa if parents are fighting for custody then first it is decided based on child's wish and circumstances of the case. After that, based on the means available to both parents, maintenance is given to child to be given to custodian by non-custodian parent.
But again it is not a donation in the name of child. Wife can not harrase husbnad bu such emotional blackmail.

Adv Kushanji is correct ...but
Liability of maintenance of children is co-extensive If both parents are working and earning!! (very important element of that citation)
SC citation Padmja Sharma vs Ratan Lal Sharma on 28/3/2000 (Here both parents are working and hence proportionate quantum worked out. if one party is having ZERO income.... It could the case of husband also!!!)
Co-extesive responsibility is not made to become a burden beyond means but based on available means !!! It is not a ransom like .......'pay or else ..........!!!
Since miuse is rampant ('Bacche ke naam pe de de Baba!!!!' mentality is grown up ... but it cant' become as if a birthright !!! ) ... no wonder if a clear citation gets borned on this controversy also!!!!
Also there has to be a good judgment on 'dowry giver got convicted ... and dowry taker got acquitted'.
Only Then it will be an effective case law to redundant law.
Many struggled/suffered untill first landmark citation that is ................... 'earning woman not entitled for interim maint' came out .............. Still many people are struggling and suffering .....
Thanks to tajobsindia and avnish ......... who has posted above citation on this forum.
