HC says even able-bodied divorced woman entitled to maintenance
The Morning Standard
|September 25, 2024
THE Delhi High Court, in a ruling, observed that a wife forced to leave her matrimonial home because of husband's extra marital affair makes her a victim of domestic violence under the Domestic Violence Act.
Justice Subramonium Prasad also upheld the lower court's previous order towards payment of maintenance by the petitioner/husband to his estranged wife.
"...No lady can tolerate that her husband is cohabiting with another lady and has a child from her. All these facts make the respondent/wife a victim of domestic violence.
The contention of the petitioner that the complaint filed by the respondent/wife doesn't come within the four corners of the Domestic Violence Act can't be accepted," read the order.
