Hello Madam,
The maintenance provisions under Criminal Law applies to every citizen irrespective of their religion. The Supreme court have held those provisions to be as secular and it doesn't preclude any person belonging to any religion. Hence you can claim Divorce under Muslim Law and Maintenance under Criminal Law.
