Daughters maintenance issue ??


30-Sep-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Is their any law that states that daughter abover 18 yrs or 18 yrs can't get maintenance from the father as they are major ? And what to do if father denies to give maintenance to his daughter's saying that they are 18 yrs or above 18 yrs as they are considered major and they can earn and support themselves? In such case what can we do to get maintenance??

the law is settled that under the Hindu law a daughter is liability to be maintained amd hence the law says that a daughter is liable to be maintained until and unless she is married. married daughter he is not a liability to be maintained since if you are unmarried it is the duty of your father to maintain you
