Parent's have every right to claim maintenance from his son and daughter for their maintenance. The Son and daughters are similarly bound to maintain his or her parents. There is a specific law in our Country under which a Parent can claim maintenance for him from his/her son or daughter.
Otherwise, he/she can file petition u/s 125 Cr. P.C. against his son or daughter before the Chief Judicial Magistrate.
