Maintenance of daughter

I got divorce from my husband by decree of the family court. At that time my daughter was minor aged 17. Now she has turned 18 and she decided to stay with me (mother). I am staying currently with my mother. The court further stated that father would take care of all her expenses in future. Please advise how should I claim maintenance from my husband for my daughter who is currently studying.

You have 2 options to claim maintenance for her.

1. File an application under Ch. X Section 144 of BNSS.

2. File application under Section 20 of Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act.

Father is bound to maintain her.
