I have a query. My wife filed divorce and maintenance under section 18 of hindu adopption maintenance act. I am wondering why she chose this path? please share your inputs.
why not mainenance under crpc 125 or HMA 24/25 or DVC maintenance? why she chose HAMA sec18? Funny part is I was waiting to file divorce after completing 2years of desertion(which is barely a month to go) and cruelty as grounds but all of a sudden she filed divorce :|
A brief desc of my case:
me filed judicial separation.
After discussion with wife and in-laws, withdrew JS and both parties filed MCD agreeing on a MOU settlement moneytary.
MCD dismissed in second motion as wife not inclined to take divorce.
2weeks later 498a, jailed the husband, remand and regular bail.
4 weeks later wife filed divorce and maintenance.
