demand for any amount of money from dad to fund my college fees


16-Feb-2025 (In Divorce Law)
Hello sir. I'm 20 years old, currently preparing for NEET UG. I'm actually thinking of opting for a private college but the fees aren't what my mother can afford. My parents got divorced back in 2010. My father never provided any child support or was never in touch with me properly. Can I legally demand for any amount of money from him to fund my college tuition?
