There are certain sections based on the different religions while pledging for divorce, that oneself can contest to grant maintenance

This term is used to describe the allowance made to a married women when she is under necessity to live apart from her spouse. The object of the provision is the prevention of vegarancy and to provide the neglected wife and children sustenance in their distress. It is consistent with Article 15(3) and 39 of the constitution of India.

You can file any number of petitions under section 125 Cr.P.C; however, maintenance is not absolute under 125. The fact in the case is what are the grounds of separation
