Supreme Court's two-judge bench, in concurring verdict, says CrPC section is religion neutral
IN a significant verdict, the Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that all divorced women, irrespective of religion, were entitled to seek maintenance from their spouse under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). Section 125 deals with maintenance for the wife, children and parents.
A bench of justices B V Nagarathna and Augustine George Masih pronounced the verdict after rejecting an appeal filed by Mohd Abdul Samad. He had been ordered by a family court in Telangana to pay a monthly maintenance of 20,000 to his ex-wife. The Telangana HC later decreased the quantum of maintenance to ₹10,000.
