You are entitle for maintenance . Your husband is legally bound to maintain you as per your standard. Maintenance comes under Criminal Procedure Code, so the intercaste or inter religion marriages will not affect your claim of maintenance. Revert me.All the best.

You should approach the court and file an application for maintenance. If you want to, you can also file a petition for divorce on the grounds of desertion by your husband. Under the law, you are entitled to maintenance from your husband.

you have remedy to get maintenance from your husband and he has to maintain you and your son. You have to file a petition under Section 125 Cr.P.C to seek maintenance. The court will decide on his income and your financial independence etc., but normally he has to pay atleat 1/3rd of his income as maintenance to you if you are unemployed. so better consult a lawyer and file a maintenance petition in the concerned family court.
