Yes...you can always apply for maintenance for yourself as well as for your daughters under section 125 CrPC. And if you were subjected to violence then you can also sue him under the Domestic Violence Act. In DV also you will be provided maintenance. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

Yes, ma'am. It is very much possible to seek maintenance for your children while living separately from your husband without taking divorce. you can file a domestic violation case against him under sec 12 dv act and claim maintenance for your children. simultaneously you can get judicial separation from your husband if you are living separately from him more than 2 years. there are several options open for you. which option would best fit your case can be discussed on call. good luck, you may consult me in this regard!
